He was pretty damn awesome, I love his portrail of Caesar, was outstanding. Better than Andy Serkis even? I haven't seen much of his material, cant make a proper comparison.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
I wonder if next weekend another small film can break into the top 10. Maybe if they expand Salmon Fishing a good deal.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
With $66m, this is poised to do around $150m for the weekend, + / - $10m.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
Amazing!! I sure as fuck hope that no one is disappointed!!
With a $66 million opening day, it is a shoe-in for a $145+ million weekend. That makes it the 4th-biggest opening ever and with that CinemaScore it will get to $350 million, I'd say.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
I still think you're over-estimating its legs. It's not a sequel but it may as well be.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
It really doesn't need much legs for $350m with an opening close to $150m. Legs should be better than late Potters or Twilights, should land somewhere around Spiderman 3's total at least.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
It needs a 2.5x multiplier to get to 350 off a 140 OW. I just can't see that happening with this audience.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
Splitting hairs. That's one million short. I'd be surprised if it doesn't at least make $140m.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
I'm not saying $140m is a lock but highly probable.

 Re: Early Friday Number on The Hunger Games
I think BJ will die of orgasms Me it will still be the same thing, just that I will be in AWE, the movie is good and the novel is great but $200m+ is shit crazy.
