I think the real question is whether it will beat Spider-Man in two days
. As likely as it is to drop today, it only needs to rise 10% to do it.

If the $55m figure is correct for PIRATES' Friday gross, it needs another $45m to do $100m in two days - that of course, would be a first. What do you think? |

Well, it pretty certainly will. I don't see it dropping more than 15% on Saturday. |

No way. It will not rise because it most likely has $10 million worth of midnight screenings included in the $55 million number. Thje best case scenario for it, is to drop 8% on Saturday. |

It's not going to do it...but one of the monsters next year has a shot at it. If Pirates 3 is significantly shorter (i.e. like under 110-120 mins), that might be able to do it. |

If this damn movie has overall multiplier less than 3, I'll lose lots of interest in opening numbers. |

If X3 can muster a drop of almost 30% in May, POTC2 could easily drop over 20% today.

That this is even a rational question is insane. OT1H, Lecter makes a good point on the previews. OTOH, Friday was a work day however light and today is not. And the X factor - if it is close enough, one can almost guaruntee Disney will throw that number out there for the publicity (and adjust some money if needed after the fact to make it stick). |

I think it'll be close, but Disney will fudge the numbers so that it barely does, sorta like was ROTS was just over $50M opening day. |

It should be able to, although if it did make $12 in midnight screenings and Saturday simply repeats the non-midnight performance of Friday, then it would make only $98 million in the 2 days. Here's hoping for an increase today. |

I think it will but it will be close. I see around a 15-20% drop on Sat depending on how large the midnight sales were. Anyone know when they will release that number?? |

It's about 98% certain, depending no how big exactly the midnights were (have we gotten a colid number yet?) |

Disney will fudge the numbers to make $100m in two days. If its close they will take some off Sunday and add it to Saturday. |

Yes, it will make it. Unlike X3 it won't drop too harshly, because it appeals to kids and families (in much greater numbers). I think it has a solid shot at 10-15% drop and could come in under 10%. |
