Five Key Factors That Give Movies Great Box Office 'Legs'.  (Forbes, 4/7/2016)

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. 

Titanic (1997) and the original My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002) are examples of movies with strong legs. Both kept running in theaters for months after their debut.

Despite the addition of 457 theater screens during its second week of release,  Unplanned's weekend box office dropped by nearly 50%.

She says she’s never heard of the form at ~5:15:

Despite adding 457 screens -- from 1059 to 1516 -- "Unplanned" experienced the second-worst drop-off in theater average, according to Box Office Mojo's April 5-7 weekend report.  Quickly running through its audience, apparently.

"The Beach Bum" has already earned a place on the list of 2019's biggest box-office bombs.
