Relationship between Different Cinematographical Factors and
Opening Weekend Revenue


After almost two years of not going to the cinema because of the global pandemic, in December,

a movie was released that managed to bring me, and many of my acquaintances, back to its seats:

namely, Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021).

release, which during conversations with friends I noticed was mainly connected to three

characteristics of it:

1. Talented and well-known actors such as Tom Holland starred in it.

2. The project had had an impressive production budget.

3. -Man saga meant that there

about what had happened next to the

characters in the story.

the box-office revenue the movie made during its

opening weekend was the second greatest in history.1 As the lover of cinema that I am,



trajectory, production budget, and position of the film in the saga) was correlated in any way to

the profit that movies made during their opening weekend at the box-office, and also which one of

the three was the most relevant to it. Consequently, the aim of this exploration is to analyze

possible relationships between the mentioned variables in the film industry.

, In order to achieve my purpose, I used data that can be found on the movie-bussiness website The

Numbers.2 It is important to note that I only considered the first three films of the 15 highest-

grossing North American franchises that had this data available. These were then analyzed with

the help of different statistical methods: scatter plots, the Least Squares Regression Line, and




Investigation


First of all, I collected the data and organized it in a table, which is included in the appendix

(table 3). You can see a summary with the mean values for each category in each saga in table 1.

The mean x is calculated with the following formula:

x=

where n is the total number of terms, and xi the value of each of those terms.
