Friday, July 19, 2019 Third weekend of July 2019
In the note
With the heatwave this weekend giving this an upside and the possibility that this might be a little front loaded giving it a downside, I’ll pick a midpoint of about $180 million for the weekend, which will comfortably be a July record. #2 Spider-Man : Far From Home - Looks pretty normal for a 3rd weekend, figure it’s off 50% for a weekend in the low 20’s. #3 Toy Story 4 - Looks pretty good right now, looks like low teens. The Farewell - Expanded to 35 theaters this weekend and looks really good so far.
