I'm sick this week, so I did this from my laptop instead of desktop. Hopefully there are no mistakes ๐

I just want you to know that I really enjoy these posts, so thank you!
Thank you! <3 Comments like these keep me motivated to keep making them :)
Any guesses how ridiculous Taylor Swift's weekend numbers get? I'm not much of a movie goer but these posts are fun.
Iโm taking a stab at $120 million domestic. I think most people going opening weekend will already have their tickets.
It isn't a draw for me in the slightest, but the historic interest in her tour is still an interesting phenomenon
Holy shit there have been at least 10 Saw movies or did they butcher the name???
Yes! This is the tenth movie in the Saw franchise.
- Saw 1-6
- Saw 3D
- Jigsaw
- Spiral
- Saw X
Thanks for the great post! Dumb money being a flop was kind of expected
It's in the title, after all.
What does weekend x mean? Why is the left and right number sometimes the same and sometimes not? What is "WW"?
What does weekend X mean?
It's the movie's 2nd+ weekend in theaters.
What is the left and right number sometimes the same?
Right column shows total, left shows just the latest weekend. It's only the same if it's the film's first weekend.
What is "WW"?
"Worldwide".
Thank you
What does weekend x mean?
I'm assuming it's weekends since premiere. Weekend 1 would be the weekend it comes out, weekend 2 would be the following weekend, etc. The left column is just measuring week by week and not all of the movies came out at the same time.
Why is the left and right number sometimes the same and sometimes not?
If a movie is on weekend 1 then the total is just whatever it has earned in this first weekend, so they'd match. Movies that have been out longer will have higher totals than the week being measured.
What is "WW"?
Worldwide, I'm assuming. So the top number would be domestic total and the bottom number would be domestic+international.
This whole thing is far from great information design. Appreciate the effort, though.
I dunno, I think weekend X is pretty clear in the context of movie releases (and really, so is the idea of a cumulative total on the right)
Not good numbers for Hollywood. Still proving my point, these figures are unsustainable for theaters to stay open.
My God I am out of the game ,I barely recognised these movies and didn't know any of them were being released
The Creator was pretty good
