Re: Project The Hunger Games' total gross!
honestly, I think 400m is close to a lock. Increasing that much on Saturday over its non-midnight Friday is a clear indication that its not at HP/Twilight level of frontloadedness. Additionally, it has strong WOM and April has no big films after Titanic/American Reunion. This has the potential to play strong through April.
Only slight issue I see is that it doesnt have IMAX after its opening week, but that shouldnt hurt too much.
I see a 435m total right now.

Do theater owners have to give their IMAX screens to Wrath of the Titans? I'm unfamiliar with the contracts or rules. The Hunger Games could make 2x as much as it next weekend.

Yes, they do.
However...its quite possible that come mid-April, the IMAX contracts will be free and Hunger Games could return for like two-week stint before Avengers.

445-455m.
I see around Alice multiplier at this point. If weekend actuals increase 5m+, then TDKR may not be the No.1 film of the year domestically.

Imax owners must be checking their contracts if they can put Hunger Games somewhere in their schedule next week.

Better use your huge stock earnings to prevent that from happening.

$430M. Judging by the CinemaScore, people seem to be enjoying this so the word of mouth is gonna be good, and what else is coming out all next month that could even put a dent in this movie's run? Wrath of the Titans? lol

In a way, yes. It'll take away all of THG's IMAX screens this weekend.

So, Hunger Games is only getting a 1-week run in IMAX. Nice.
