 Re: May 6-8 Predictions
I feel bad for Thor  having to open a week after F5 86 million dollar wknd. Hopefully it comes within 20 mill of that.

 Re: May 6-8 Predictions
OMG Rev what is that girl doing with that Fish ??  As for Thor it looks like it is tracking consistently at high-50's so that should be a great number. I could easily see this one having good legs. It has a slight chance to make $200m domestically

 Re: May 6-8 Predictions
I remember I use to have a big crush on her back when I started watching G4, but apparently she's kind of a bitch to work with which is why she left or did she get fired ? Anyways, she's still pretty damn hot.

Agreed they have had a very unusual start of the year....none of their movies reached their potential

I'm very interested to see the 3D breakdown for Thor. Will it be close to 80% like Tron/Avatar/Alice or closer to 50% like Clash of the Titans? Much closer to Clash I think.

I think that poster is great because it's very effective. You will definitely stop and see what movie that poster is for...

In fact, something in April used to almost exclusively beat the biggest first week of May opener, before The Mummy came along in 1999. My times have changed.

 Re: May 6-8 Predictions
Technically calendar wise this is also more equivalent to the second weekend of May (instead of just the fact that Fast Five opened so big) since it's Mother's Day weekend.

I think we actually have Twister in 1996 to thank for the summer movie season being considered to start in early May.

I think we actually have Twister in 1996 to thank for the summer movie season being considered to start in early May. Pretty much. If we generalize to all pre-Victoria Day "May" starts (Apr 29 - May 14 Fridays) rather than just first weekend of May (as I was doing), Twister (5/10/96) ushered in the summer = early May era. Prior to that year the biggest opener in the period (adjusted) was the previous year's Crimson Tide (5/12/95), which did less than half of Twister. Before that the biggest Apr or early May opener was Indecent Proposal (4/9/93).

 Re: May 6-8 Predictions
Actually (I know I'm old), CONAN THE BARBARIAN opened May 14th 1982 and delivered the sixth biggest opening weekend of all-time back than ($9.5m)
