Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers Very strong 2nd Friday
The film will also hold well on Saturday as this film is a draw on that day as we all know it got over 50 million dollars last Saturday.
This Saturday will be around 26-29 million.
So with 21 million a mid 60 2nd weekend is assured.
Frankly its looking around 65-70 million at this rate.
60 million is assured.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers FRIDAY 9:30 PM, 3RD UPDATE: There’s dissension among my sources over just how big Lionsgate’s holdover The Hunger Games will be this weekend despite two major releases opening against it. It’s another huge weekend for the North American box office. Here are results for the Top Five with numbers continuing to refine later tonight:
1. The Hunger Games (Lionsgate) Week 2 [4,137 Theaters]
Est Friday $24M , Est Weekend $75M
2. Wrath Of The Titans (Warner Bros) NEW [3,545 Theaters]
Est Friday $11.2M, Est Weekend $29M
3. Mirror Mirror (Relativity) NEW [3,603 Theaters]
Est Friday $6.4M, Est Weekend $22.0M
4. 21 Jump Street (Sony) Week 3 [3,148 Theaters]
Est Friday $4.4M, Est Weekend $11M
5. Dr Seuss’ The Lorax (Universal) Week 5 [3,264 Theaters]
Est Friday $2.1M, Est Weekend $8.5M
Well THG is about to set some records if this holds true
Biggest 2nd Friday and a good chance at beating Spider Man 1 decade long record for biggest 2nd Saturday and also perhaps biggest 2nd weekend.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers Nikki updated her Friday estimate to 24 million. Should lock up the biggest second weekend ever, no?

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers If $24 million holds, it could dip below 50% for the weekend.  Just needs a 3.2 IM, which would also be enough to beat the second weekend record. _________________Japan Box Office “Gods are great ... but the heart is greater.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers If THG does indeed do that well that will be an amazing hold.
TITANS should have moved. In the right spot it could have opened above 40 Million, IMO.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers LOL, she goes from a lot smaller than Variety/BOG to a LOT higher than them.
I'll stick with the latter guys, but damn that would be amazing.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers Lets say 20-24 is the range.
However I would love to see that 2nd number.
The last time a film had a solid 2nd weekend was Alice back in 2010.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers $24m Friday would mean a $80m weekend! That'd put $500m in play.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers Yeah I think even with such a large Friday it will perform like the Spider Man films and Alice and get a massive Saturday around 28-32 million.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers Also, if $24 million would hold, it would mean BJ himself underpredicted it again. lol. What is going on.

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers hard to say what is the right number however based on my own theater reports, Saturday will be huge like last week.
Looks we are on track for a massive Saturday

Re: Earliestestest Friday Numbers We'll see how the weekend pans out but I always said its run after OW will be the more interesting to track.
