Original Analysis CinemaScore Analysis – 2016 Edition
Link to the other editions:
1980s: 1982 | 1986 | 1987 | 1988 | 1989
1990s: 1990 | 1991 | 1992 | 1993 | 1994 | 1995 | 1996 | 1997 | 1998 | 1999

2020s: 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023
In this post, I kept track of every 2016 movie's CinemaScore (at least, the ones that got it). I plan to post for each subsequent year, one year per weekend. My intention is to see the evolution of each year and how the grades can either help or damage a movie's legs.
I plan to delve into each year and each movie that got a grade. While CinemaScore was founded in 1979, we didn't get a grade until 1982 and we didn't get full information until 1986.
Before starting, some notes:
This list is based on multipliers/legs. In this case, domestic total/domestic opening weekend = multiplier/legs.
If a movie opens on Saturday or Sunday (like on Christmas Day), I will use its first full weekend (Friday through Sunday).
The opening weekend is based on its first wide release (600+ theaters).
If a movie never makes it past 600 theaters, then its biggest weekend number will be used.
The figures are all taken from The Numbers and Box Office Mojo.
In 2016, 143 movies received CinemaScores (2015 had 139). How did it go?
A+
4 movies (2.79%) managed to get the rare A+. Generally, this indicates exceptional word of mouth and guarantees a long and healthy run. Of course, the bigger a movie opens, the weaker legs will turn out to be. These movies averaged a 4.48x multiplier. In comparison, 2015 had 3 movies with a 4.68x average multiplier.

A
30 movies (20.97%) managed to get the grade. A step down from the rare A+, but it still indicates strong word of mouth. These movies averaged a 3.33x multiplier. In comparison, 2015 had 26 movies with a 3.40x average multiplier.

B+
23 movies (16.08%) managed to get the grade. This is where things get interesting. Generally, it indicates average word of mouth. The audience didn't love it, but didn't hate it. For some niche movies, this should be a fine score. But for IP-driven movies, this should be concerning as fans are more biased to the movie itself. These movies averaged a 3.01x multiplier. In comparison, 2015 had 20 movies with a 3.45x average multiplier.

I know these scores are often weird for horror movies, but this seems like an alternate universe: Don't Breathe scored better than Lights Out, Ouija 2, AND The Witch?!

I wonder why Hail, Caesar got such a low score. I forgot Norm of the North did that poorly, OMG! That’s probably one of the lowest scores for an animated kids movie ever.
