I've already had multiple people correct an error in the worldwide weekend graphics. Obviously I got a little lost in the charts and mixed some numbers/titles up as I was building out the chart. The good news is that it would have happened no matter what day I did the show. I'll revise and correct for next week.

Don't listen to the nit picking haters Dan. You're doing a fantastic job.

I feel like it’s the same guy complaining at you on 6 different burners

Q: How to achieve Box Office success in 2024? A: *Monke.*

Ignore the haters Dan. You're doing a great job and the move to Monday was a great decision!

Godzilla x Kong and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes bookending the top 5? WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY

Disney made the right call with moving Apes up two weeks. It would had not opened that high had it stayed on Memorial Day weekend with Furiosa not moving.

4:50 don’t forget that Dune is also about Worms 🤔

Much prefer Mondays. I don't give a darn if the numbers are off slightly. If it's a huge thing, then bring it up the next week. I'd rather have the number sooner than later

International posters for the monsterverse are sick

A series that has been around since the 1960s, seven years since the last film, without its most recent lead character, set narratively hundreds of years later, with mostly unknown actors (at least to general audiences) and it STILL pulls in almost $60 million in a post Covid market according to the most recent estimates is incredible. As for the audience scores, I’m hoping it’s something similar to Civil War. In that audiences ding it for being slower paced than they expected, but it still can have a decent multiple the way Civil War has despite its B- CinemaScore. The fact Apes had a good Saturday hold from its Friday opening is at least a positive sign for now.

Surprised to learn that there were so many ridiculously-named sequels already in the 1970s

People don’t like the abbreviations!!! I LOVE THE ABBREVIATIONS! It’s the reason I watch this show. Keep it up Dan ❤

I think it works better on Monday, I feel like this was a good move.

It feels weird having this come out before Grace Randolph's Movie Math does.

I got married in 2009, and my husband wore a Star Trek T-Shirt to our Rehersal Dinner. I love him so much! ❤

Although I loved getting the actual numbers, your move to Mondays makes total sense and I am LOVING it! Your show is amazing Dan and you continue to be the ONLY one worth watching to hear about box office. Keep up the fantastic work 😊

6:35 - The fact that when adjusting for inflation, Kingdom of the Planet of the apes sold less than half the number of tickets in the 1st weekend as the Tim Burton version, think this really shows the challenging situation the movie industry is currently in. It is simply a lot more difficult to get the audiance out the theatres than it was 23 years ago unless the moive is a big event like Avatar or Barbie.

This movie was good. Noah went through a lot and im on his side for the trilogy.

Moving to Mondays is the smart thing to do, because you used to be upstaged by "Beyond The Trailer" who basically has always made this same show on Mondays, so your show looked like a rehash of old news when it was on Tuesdays. Now you get to have your takes first on the box office news or at the same time, so viewers can compare them better. Keep up the good work!.

Dan this comes with deep love and appreciation so I hope you don’t misunderstand or be sad .. I honestly preferred the later show with the “weekends actuals”. All other outlets that I know of report box-office estimates and they almost never report the news a second time with the corrected numbers. I get the appeal of the fast news cycle and potential larger audience, but to me your show is unique because of weekend actuals. I don’t mind waiting a bit for it, in fact every week I eagerly look forwards to it. I know you trying it this way as summer experiment… either way whether it ends up being weekend estimates or weekend actual to me it’s absolutely worth it to keep watching the show, your commentary alone is makes all worthy. You one of my top 3 film reviewers ever and you are always awesome !!

Hey Dan, I’m actually ecstatic about your move back to Mondays as I had fallen off watching the show regularly but now will 100% be back on board! I program the weekly show schedule for a movie theatre and having Charts back means I can start the week getting the info from YOU, before looking at our chain’s grosses, spending time with the numbers, and then making the schedule. When you were on Tuesdays I was already tired of reading and thinking about the numbers but now I’m glad to be back to a much more enjoyable start to Mondays. Thanks!

It just occurred to me that I am a dude living in Greece at the other side of the Atlantic and I am genuinely interested and looking forward each week hearing from a dude in the U.S about what is going on with the box office there That’s the Dan effect I love your show

Dan the man, does what he can. Stop complaining

Monday shows are a great change. I'm a regular watcher and would be watching either way, but I love getting these shows fresh off the weekend.

I am here for all your stats videos Dan, whenever they happen to occur.

Always love the show! keep up the great job Dan :)

loving the show on mondays ;)

I'm curious about the demos for Apes, because my particular theater was completely devoid of any young people. A lot of my audience was well over 35.

Happy to support you, Dan as you make this transition! Hope your audience grows! Keep up the great work!

I don't mind estimate Monday charts with Dan! I look forward to this every week! Wherever it lands, I'll be there.

Dan, love your show. I don’t get why people are so negative towards the new day and this STUPID a demand that you red numbers out. Anyone who is demanding this, y’all need to re-evaluate. Ridiculous.

Great work Dan! As always, God bless!!

Great episode Dan, thanks!!!!

Thank you Dan for continuing to make these episodes and being so consistent. Moving to Mondays is better and will get you more views I'm sure. No one else does it as good as you. Thank you!

Thanks again Dan for killing it! Love the show, as always!

Dan. Thanks for all you do. I appreciate the explanation of why you are changing things a bit, but it also embarrasses me that you have to do it. The amount of work and research you put into your content is very appreciated. As for me, I tune in for you... Your expertise and opinions. Do whatever you think is best! I trust you, you're the expert lol and thanks again!

Fantastic video as always Dan!

Mondays works fine! Thanks for the show!!

Hey Dan, Keep on keeping on! Like the new day slot.

You are doing a great job Dan! Thanks for my making us 3 excellent box office analysis!

Thanks as always, Dan!

Hey Dan, following on from Deadline's recent annual 'Most Valuable Movie Blockbuster Tournament', just wondering if you'd be interested in pls breaking down the typical $100m+ Marketing/P&A budgets of most blockbusters to give us all an idea of why it costs that much to market a movie?! Thanks!

Great video!

So happy to get Charts on monday 🙌🏽

Love what you do mate.

The Monday Show is fantastic. I am very thankful for your show and it is as awesome on Monday as it ever was.

Thank you Dan for reminding me to check my local listings for I Saw The TV Glow! I just saw it will start playing at my theater tomorrow 😊

Thank you for the numbers and charts Dan. It doesn’t bother me that you don’t round up. In fact, I never noticed it until you mentioned it on today’s episode. I love this show and the channel. Also, I miss Star Trek films too. Keep up the awesomeness!

Absolutely love charting being on Mondays Dan! No better way to start the week imo :)

The fact that people have so little to do but criticize if you're rounding up is pathetic. Great job Dan, thanks for the consistent awesome work. 🎉

I went to the planet of the apes movie with a friend. Almost every other movie goer in the theater was a old person. From what I heard from them after the movie they didn’t enjoy it. My guess is that the older crowd definitely wasn’t in to it. I thought it was pretty good.

Dan the reason you're worth watching is precisely because you quality control and explain your stats - right down to how you abbreviate the numbers. That plus your history of accountability means we know you are trustworthy. That's gold dust in our modern capitalistic world. Precisely because genuine trustworthiness has zero to do with profitability. For that exact reason I hope this channel grows and grows. Because we need more channels, commentators, content and businesses like yours!

The show is fantastic regardless of what day it is. Happy to tune in anytime!

Hey Dan, love your box office show and your reviews ❣️ Sorry you need to over explain or clarify many points. The charts you out together, the analytical take you provide, and the thorough analysis; as well as random fun chart comparisons are unique and worth watching every week 🙌

I think most people, like myself, assumed The Phantom Menace was only going to play that May 4th weekend. 🤷 Also money is tight & we have Phantom Menace at home.😋😂

If it's helping you grow then you do you Dan. I'm here to support you.

Amazingly comprehensive analysis.

Totally support the shift to Mondays, I think we are more conducive to weekend box office stuff on Monday more so than on Tuesday. By Tuesday, the thunder has kinda passed (though I watched your show on Tuesday anyway!) So, good choice IMO

I'm definitely liking the show now being on Mondays. I know you have to use the dreaded estimates, but I think you can still do the deep dives that you want.

Much prefer it on Mondays. Love the channel..Keep it up!

Yay for Monday

And another excellent Dan episode in the books !

Really happy Apes is gonna do well. For some reason I’ve been rooting really hard for Wes Ball. He’s had so many projects get shut down late into production and seems like a genuine talent.

Dan - Ignore the minority of the moaners. They will moan at anything and can’t please everyone! Think it’s fantastic !

Hi Dan. Love the work you do! You have always been my favorite box offices channel since you always try to look at the data and make rational and objective comments about the box office! However, since you have started talking about wanting to grow the channel and stuff, I thought I might offer my point of view on Charts with Dan. A thing I have noticed over the years is that Charts with Dan have gotten a lot more charts, and for me that have made the different uploads a bit less exciting. I loved the 15-20 min episodes, maybe with a cool look at a interesting extra topic as you so often do for 5 min. But nowadays almost all episodes are 30+ min. I know there have been added more sponsors to make it so that you can earn a decent living. Nevertheless, the epsiodes have in my opinion gotten quite a few more niche charts that maybe only interest a minority of the viewers, which may could be left out. So if you want to draw are larger recurring audience, it could be an idea to go back to a more slim version of the episodes to make them more interesting. For example, I skipped around 12-15 mins (2,5 min of sponsors) of todays episode, due to parts I dont really find interesting, and I am one of the loyal viewers that have watched almost every charts with Dan segment since I found you at Screen Junkies. Off course this is only my opinion, but it could be something to think about :) Let me know if you want me to elaborate. And again love you and love your work. Keep it up! :D

I find international posters to be way more dynamic. Like they're in motion, busier, louder, generally more fun and interesting than a bunch of faces and bodies in the sky. Can you comment on that?

Love the episode as always, Dan! Just wanted to check in to see if, on the Road to Recovery chart, those numbers are adjusted for inflation? 2015 numbers would definitely be a lot more in today's dollars, and the reality of the industry could be even worse than it looks

Recently listened to your All My Movies episode on Star Trek. Really great episode. I miss that franchise. And I miss Anton :(

Great Chart!!!!!

i appreciate the punch in on dan explaining him explaining the abbreviated prices. I felt personally called out and very connected to the creator all at the same time lol

Hey Dan - maybe like what you did with the Godzilla films, you can do a future Apes watch and rank project? Probably would be less daunting then the former!

I'm overjoyed to hear this as I love this franchise and hope it continues, at least for one more trilogy taking us to 6 films (though I know there's plans for 9 total), It's funny though as these movies seem to do well but I feel like I know barely anyone that's watched them. Their loss!

I've been watching "charts with Dan" since before it was cool. It started out on Monday. So for me, this just feels like coming home.

Make the content how you want. Don’t waste your time explaining yourself. It’s quite often. Responding to these commenters thru your videos isn’t necessary. You can’t make everyone happy. Love the work you do

You the man Dan 💯

I always appreciate your videos! Don’t listen to the whiners.

Didn't expect my silly comment from last week about rounding up would get a shout out in the next video, but I appreciate it nonetheless😁 Thanks for everything you do and keep up the good work!

Hey where did you find the numbers for Madam Butterfly? I don't see it on boxofficemojo or the numbers.

I don't want to add too much work for you Dan, but I was just thinking it'd be really cool to see opening weekend multiplier on the domestic gross charts. Here, it would have been really cool to see for the planet of the apes movies to see how much higher it was for Dawn than War. Love the videos!

3:00 for sure it bothers me that you don't properly round off the numbers. Never thought to comment about it before but thanks for explaining yourself.

Lol for the Planet of the Apes franchise tracker, I would've just nicknamed each by their first name (Rise, Dawn, War, etc.) because those are some long names!

I don't remember what it was that pulled me in but despite never having seen any of the original series I showed up for Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes on opening night (and in 2001 I never did movies opening night because of where I lived).

Hey dan!

Moving to Monday has another great benefit. We'll be able to tell how accurate the estimates are. If you have to make three corrections a year, that tells us that the industry basically knows what they're doing with those estimates. I find that potentially fascinating.

Mondays are ok, however still used to Tuesdays. Watch either way though 😜

Thank God Apes did well, I need a sequel to that movie. Cinemascore is wild though. Also I appreciated your explanation on how you read the numbers, I always assumed your rounding skills were mixed 😂

My cousin is an actress. Her largest film role to date was in Sweetwater. I'm sad to see it in the very last spot on that list 😞

3:07: seems like people will complain about anything, LOL. Reminds me of the Jackals from the Corrections segments on Seth Meyers.

Hey dan if we are nitpicking everything now the arrows on dropped out @ 13:49 aren't aligned ;)

Thank you for adjusting for inflation!

It's all good Dan. Estimated are fine. Not saying each and every digit of a 7 to 8 string of numbers is fine. Not rounding up when we're talking millions of dollars is fine. I appreciate the show and the lengths you go to not just report the stats but the Context around them.

Dan the man!

This month, I'm most interested in "Mars Express" - the French animation Ghost in The Shell mystery type movie , sadly its playing in only a few places Also looking forward to "The Dead Don't Hurt" , a western directed by Viggo Mortensen . Love a good western

Mondays are the best! Also, I may be the only one who agrees with the B CinemaScore, but I am so happy the movie did well, I see potential in the sequels even though I did not like the movie much.

Fuck those nitpickers Dan! Do what you want!

Those Apes charts ring out what you said in your review, Dan. Dawn is the clear favorite and it had that 3rd act Ape-off that was somewhat lacking in Kingdom.

People need to chill out, who cares what day it comes out on

It’s hilarious that Dan still calls it the “road to recovery”… Isn’t it about time to just call it the new normal? It’s a great chart, super interesting, but we’re never hitting again the relative theatrical highs of the pre-pandemic. Things have changed, and that’s ok. It’s not a bad thing.

My vote is keep the Mondays. It's my new favorite thing about Mondays. I'm glad people like Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. I didn't like it that much and I predicted it wouldn't do that well. I don't think it will be a big summer hit overall. But I'm sure it will do well considering the competition so far. We'll see how well if does with the other May movies coming out.
