Tracking Critical Reception:

We tracked Five Foot Two, so this should be common knowledge, and while Metacritic is also used, Rotten Tomatoes is often the preferred citations for critical reception for movies.

Some important terminologies:

Legs - this is to movies what longevity is for music. If Million Reasons had 178,234 winds/resurrections, a movie surviving for several weekends is called "leggy" or has "several/strong legs".

Spoiler

In movie industry parlance, a film has “legs” when its box office trajectory defies normal patterns by running longer and more successfully in theaters than would typically be expected.  A “leggy” film is one that has strong and profitable box-office stamina and audience drawing power far beyond the opening day or opening weekend.

Spoiler

Pictures that hang in at the box office over multiple weekends -- known as "having legs" among theater operators and studio executives

Friday Opening: Unlike music charts which track sales (and streams) immediately only at the start of Friday (past Thursday midnight), Friday Opening/Premieres include Thursday viewings. If a film has significant early viewings on Thursday night, it can contribute to an apparent massive drop for the next days simply because we're considering more than 24 hours' worth of ticket sales for just one day.

Are y'all ready?
