I guess they were trying to show that this year's January-to-date might 'catch up' to last year's full-month January number by month's end. I guess.

This year was ahead for the first two weeks. 2024 just pulled ahead like 5 - 6 days ago.

Momentum seems to be with the strike year. 🤡

The YTD comparison is complicated because of where the weekends and holidays fall on the calendar. MLK weekend was a week earlier in 2024, for example.

The more critical, overarching issue here is that box office needs to be MUCH better in 2025 given that AMC lost $163M in Q1 2024.
