Highly anticipated movies "Wicked" and "Gladiator II" are being released on the same day and come shortly ahead of "Moana 2," setting up what could be a record-breaking Thanksgiving weekend for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41790068/amc-ceo-is-confident-and-optimistic-about-cinema-chains-future-as-q3-earnings-show-revenue-beat-rec">movie theater industry</a>.
What Happened: "Wicked" and "Gladiator II" open in domestic movie theaters on Nov. 22, in a move that some compared to the release of "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" on the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/07/39621420/wicked-gladiator-2-same-day-release-has-industry-vying-for-another-box-office-power-duo-bar"> same day last year.</a>
While "Glicked" or whatever acronym you want to use for seeing both movies the same day didn't catch on as big as last year's "Barbenheimer" did previously, expectations remain high for both movies.
"Wicked," which comes from Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) unit Universal Pictures, is expected to post a domestic opening weekend total in the range of $125 million to $150 million, as <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/11/wicked-gladiator-box-office-preview-1236181463/">reported </a>by Deadline.
"Gladiator II," which comes from Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>), is expected to have a domestic opening weekend of more than $60 million.
Deadline reports strong initial audience scores for "Wicked" from those who saw early screenings of the film and pre-sales that are "through the roof."
As an R-rated movie, a total of $60 million or more could help "Gladiator II" become the highest-grossing R-rated film in November.

Why It's Important: The strong expected opens for "Wicked" and "Gladiator II" could be good news for AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>) and Cinemark Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNK#NYSE">CNK</a>) and other movie theater operators in the U.S.
Along with those two movies, movie theaters could also benefit from the release of "Moana 2" from Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>), which comes next Wednesday, ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday.
The three movies could help the domestic box office pass $300 million and hit all-time records for the holiday five-day weekend, <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/box-office-record-thanksgiving-feast-1236067367/">according </a>to The Hollywood Reporter.
With three strong movies all released shortly before Thanksgiving, estimates predict a strong domestic box office next week, which could be another bright spot in the post-COVID-19 recovery for movie theaters and movie companies.
A total of over $300 million, with most coming from the three films, could come close to the record. Here's a look at the current top-grossing five-day domestic Thanksgiving weekends and the highest-grossing film during the time period:
<ul>
<li>2018: $315.6 million, "Ralph Breaks the Internet" ($84.8 million)</li>
<li>2013: $294.2 million, "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" ($109.9 million)</li>
<li>2017: $270.5 million, "Coco" ($72.9 million)</li>
<li>2019: $263.4 million, "Frozen II" ($125.0 million)</li>
<li>2016: $260.0 million, "Moana" ($125.0 million)</li>
</ul>
The report said current tracking predicts "Moana 2" will gross between $125 million and $150 million for the five-day holiday weekend domestically, which would break records for the time period.
The early Wednesday opening could contribute to the strong expectations for "Moana 2" as not all blockbusters haven't done this same holiday release window previously, the report added.
While the strong opening expectations for the three films could help the movie companies behind them, the big winners will likely be the movie theaters as they could see many customers coming in more than once during a period that might have only drawn one visit in past years due to this year's strong lineup.

'Wicked,' 'Gladiator II,' 'Moana 2' Could Break Thanksgiving Weekend Box Office: Stocks To Watch

AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>) is accustomed to drama on the big screen, but its stock may be facing a critical moment <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMC/news">in the financial markets.</a>

AMC stock is nearing a Death Cross, where its 50-day moving average dips below the 200-day moving average—a technical signal often linked to bearish momentum. For a company managing $4 billion in debt, this chart pattern adds to an already challenging outlook.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Debt Load That Steals The Spotlight</h2>
The domestic box office has made a strong recovery, delivering its best third-quarter results since 2020. However, AMC has struggled to capitalize on the momentum. As the largest theater operator with 900 locations and 10,000 screens, the company remains weighed down by its significant debt burden.
While competitors like Cinemark Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNK#NYSE">CNK</a>) navigate the industry revival with relative ease, AMC continues to grapple with substantial interest payments that weigh heavily on its financial recovery.
Even with a blockbuster-filled lineup and premium theater upgrades like Dolby Cinema and IMAX, AMC&#8217;s bottom line continues to suffer. In <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMC/earnings">the third quarter</a>, the company posted a $21 million loss, with interest payments significantly impacting its results.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Blockbuster Bet</h2>
AMC is betting big on premium experiences to lure audiences back. CEO Adam Aron's "<a href="https://investor.amctheatres.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/372/amc-theatres-announces-amcs-go-plan-a-multi-year-plan-to-invest-up-to-1-5-billion-over-four-to-seven-years-greatly-improving-the-movie-going-experience-at-amc">Go Plan</a>" includes a $1 billion-plus investment in enhanced screens, luxury seating, and fancy popcorn buckets. 
While these initiatives might spark revenue growth, analysts <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/18/amc-debt-threatens-its-ability-to-ride-the-box-office-rebound.html">warn</a> against excessive spending. Roth Capital analyst Eric Handler cautions, "They've still got to be judicious with their cash flow."
Yet, investors remain skeptical. AMC's penchant for issuing shares to raise capital has diluted stockholder value, making its equity less appetizing than overpriced movie concessions.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Technical Script Unfolds</h2>
The looming Death Cross isn't just symbolic. AMC stock has slumped over 39% in the past year and nearly 29% year-to-date, reflecting waning investor confidence. The recent month's 1.63% gain feels like a short intermission before the plot thickens.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Will AMC Rewrite Its Ending?</h2>
Despite grim technical indicators, there's hope for a better sequel. Hollywood&#8217;s 2025 and 2026 slates are packed with franchise juggernauts that could fill AMC&#8217;s premium screens and drive ticket sales. 
However, the question remains: can AMC manage its debt, avoid further dilution, and stay afloat long enough to capitalize on the industry revival?
For now, as AMC's Death Cross approaches, the market appears to be anticipating a potential shift—though whether it leads to recovery or further struggles remains unclear.

AMC Nears Death Cross As Debt Takes Center Stage

Movie theater company AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>) could highlight market share gains and a strong box office performance when the company reports third-quarter financial results Wednesday<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings"> after the market close.</a>
AMC Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect AMC to report third-quarter revenue of $1.33 billion, down from $1.41 billion in last year's third quarter, according to data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent110624&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The company has beaten revenue estimates from analysts in nine of the last 10 quarters, missing in the most recently reported second quarter.
Analysts expect the company to report a loss of 11 cents per share, compared to a loss of 9 cents per share in last year's third quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in seven of the last eight quarters, meeting expectations in the most recently reported second quarter.

What AMC Analysts Are Saying: Wedbush analyst Alicia Reese <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40165453/amc-stock-to-remain-volatile-after-q2-results-analysts-praise-market-share-gains-ca">detailed the company's</a> potential market share gains in an investor note after second-quarter financial results.
The analyst, who has a Neutral rating and a $4 price target, said the company needs to reduce its high debt load to help with future growth.
"AMC can also drive revenue growth in Europe with theater upgrades. However, it is unlikely to do so until it works through balance sheet right-sizing," Reese said.
The analyst said a large network of premium screens and concert movie distribution deals could help "justify its premium valuation," but cautioned on more potential capital needed to cover interest payments.
&#8220;We expect AMC&#8217;s shares to remain volatile as its shareholders dislike its frequent share issuances.&#8221;
Benchmark analyst Mike Hickey said AMC's second quarter saw a strong performance with several box office hits.
The analyst, who has a Market Weight rating and no price target, said the concession revenue per attendee was up in the second quarter for domestic theaters along with higher average ticket prices, positives for the company.
Key Items to Watch From AMC: The third-quarter box office rose 0.6% year-over-year domestically according to <a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/quarter/q3/?grossesOption=calendarGrosses">data </a>from BoxOfficeMojo. The quarter saw hit films like "Deadpool &amp; Wolverine," "Despicable Me 4," "Twisters" and "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" released.
AMC's quarterly report comes after peer Cinemark Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNK#NYSE">CNK</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41660851/whats-going-on-with-cinemark-holdings-stock-thursday">reported quarterly earnings </a>that saw earnings per share and revenue both beat analyst estimates. The company&#8217;s shares rose after the report, and analysts raised<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CNK/analyst-ratings"> their price targets.</a>
Cinemark said the third quarter box office exceeded expectations and was the highest quarterly total since the COVID-19 pandemic.
A similar report from AMC could go a long way toward showing a box office recovery and growth ahead.
Fourth-quarter domestic box office hasn't been as strong, with "Venom: The Last Dance" the current top film of the quarter at $92.0 million. Upcoming movies like "Gladiator II," "Moana 2," "Wicked," "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" and "Mufasa: The Lion King" could bring optimism for a strong end to the year for movie theater companies.
AMC CEO Adam Aron has been more optimistic about upcoming years than 2024, which could be echoed in his commentary on Wednesday.
&#8220;With a long list of blockbuster movie titles opening in theaters during the remainder of the year and into 2025 and 2026, the industry-wide box office now appears to us to be poised for sustained growth. Looking ahead, we believe that bodes ever so well for the increasing cash generation potential from AMC&#8217;s movie theaters both at home and abroad," Aron said earlier this year.
AMC Price Action: AMC stock was up 2.3% to $4.50 on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $2.38 to $11.88. AMC stock is down 28% year-to-date in 2024.
