 Re: Weekend Estimates Who would have thought THG would have such a good shot at outgrossing Deathly Hallows Part 2, 6 months ago.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ Based of this..
Is Friday over 70 million?
Is Saturday over 51-52 million?
Or is Sunday expected to be around 37 million?

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ The Hunger Games ends up above Spider-Man's adjusted opening weekend. Besides I guess taking the OW record, it achieved everything this weekend.
And even without midnights it would have delivered the seventh, maybe sixth, biggest OW of all-time.
Also, October Baby grossed an est. $1.7 in 390 theaters. If anyone cares.

THE HUNGER GAMES food pyramid: FRI - $68 mil, SAT - $51 mil, SUN - $36 mil. $155 million in 4,137 theatres = $37,467 per theatre average

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ Breakdown from ERC:
Breakdown:
68
51
36 projected Sunday.
I will say THG Saturday is the most impressive single day gross since TDK epic Sunday and Spiderman 3 epic Saturday before.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ Umm...it might have a shot at the Saturday record. Without midnights, it increased on Saturday.
Holy fuck! Fuck!

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ Very reasonable Sunday projection by Liongate. They could have easily estimated a few millions higher to bear The Dark Knight for even more headlines, but I guess they figured no need any more.
It also means $160m is still in play.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ You know. It's rare that I find the "MOTHER OF GOD" image appropriate. But it is here.
$155 million. The third biggest opening of all time. In March. For the first movie in a series. With no 3D surcharges.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ More from ERC:
Lionsgate reported that females made up 61% of the audience, males 39%, and 56% of the audience was ages 25+, while 44% were under 25. The film also received a solid “A” from Cinemascore.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ And Sunday might be even better if it holds well. And yes there are already few sell out for Sunday in NY.
This is the most insane and most impressive OW ever.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ The film will have legs, and with Titanic opening on Wed, I could see THG staying at the top of the chart for a while.

Re: Weekend Estimates - Katni$$ So, third biggest OW of all time is assured. If it can manage a Sunday drop under 22%, it could beat TDK for #2. It would have to stay flat on Sunday to beat DH2 for the top spot, and that's not going to happen.
Awesome opening. It'll be fun to see what kind of legs it has.
