 Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder This does not look like behaving like a big OD movie. Could end up < 6M. I have read several crowd reports of low turn out even in the evening.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder It IS a weekend movie, unlike PE.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder I wouldn't be surprised at a sub 7mil OD honestly, it was pretty ghostly at my theater. I do agree that'll do big business over the weekend, WOM will help it a lot more then it did for PE.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder I still think that this should've opened on Friday.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Looks like Tropic Thunder's ratio was about 125 - pretty high compared to many recent films.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Is that really bad for Mirrors?
Hopefully it will get better at evenin/nighttime, Cause it is rated R and it's a horror film.
I really want this to break $10,000,000 opening weekend.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder What would be the ratio for CW. it should be one of the highest this summer bcos it is fan driven. But with midnights around 500K, there is no craze even among crazy fanboys.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Feel like $6m for Star Wars, $3m for Mirrors, and $1m for VC Barcelona.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder I dont see any sellouts for CW in NY even at this time. I think it will gross close to tracking numbers.
TT is doing well. Should have a good increase today.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder Looks to me like CW is doing pretty well. I can see it in the $6m-7m range for the day, which would far surpass tracking. Agree that mirrors will be around $3m for a single-digit weekend. I could see a VCB coming in a shade under $1m, but its ratio should be low. Hard to tell how TT is doing since I don't think we documented how many reviews it had to start the day.

Re: Yahoo Review Thread - Tropic Thunder It had right about 1600-1650 to start the day.
