Film Updates engagement report
@FilmUpdates - 1.5M followers on X
Measured over 274 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 4.3K interactions against 1.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.281%. Measured over 274 original posts, its engagement rate beats 95% of 3,791 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 123K times each, and 3.53% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 7.95% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 9.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 47% of days. Most posts go out around 16:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 274 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 14% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 107K interactions, about 25x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Film Updates's engagement rate beats 95% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 90% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

At 0.281%, Film Updates sits above the 50th percentile of the 36,759 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.08% to 0.434%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 16:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Viola Davis pays tribute to Hayden Panettiere: “What an amazing talent you were....so gifted. Julius and I loved working with you....an old, wise soul with such a deep heart. I wish the world had more time with you because I had a burning curiosity about who you were becoming. I saw this beautiful Phoenix rising from the ashes. Your tests became your testimony, and your testimony became your legacy. You will be remembered. Rest well, Hayden. Sending healing prayers to your family, your daughter, and all who loved you. May they always speak your name...”
