If BOM numbers are the true numbers, which they most likely are, we've got a much lower weekend than with showbizdata or other numbers.

SBD and BOMs saturday increase for Batman is almost identical. 24.59% from SBD and 24.6% increase from BOM. Same case for the rest of the movies. BOMs and SBD saturday increases are around 1% within each other. Its just the Different Friday #'s thats causing the confusion.

With 2.82M on Friday and 2.99 on Saturday, studio is basically projecting a 10% increase on Sunday to get to BOM's 9.034M weekend estimate. It's possible, but something just doesn't sound right to me, whether it's BOM, showbiz, or anything else. Like Zing, I'll just wait for the real estimates tomorrow.

With the incredibly small Saturday increases, both from BOM and showbizdata numbers, I wouldn't be surprised if the sunday has increases for family oriented films, and very small declines for other films. Or perhaps all films have small increases. Who knows. We don't have any history to determine what happens on this sunday. All I know is that the Saturday increases are very small, and the sunday will be inflated because of the holiday monday. So combine those two reasonings, and who knows what sunday will bring.
PEACE, Mike

I think that it will have small decreases/increases on sunday and 15-20% drops on Monday.

A sizable amount - likely Americans. Funnily enough the sun trusted a news reporters mistake to print that 5 BILLION PEOPLE WATCHED IT, which is of course bollocks. It reached 5 billion viewers, and roughly half of them watched it.  holly cow, whee was this taking place at, and why have I never hurd about till today  You're not alone. I don't know what it is either so it couldn't have been THAT big... I saw a little bit of it on TV yesterday but I don't think it had any effect on the box office here in the US. I can't think of anyone who would sit inside the house for eight hours straight to watch a concert. I mean if people planned on a seeing a movie yesterday, the concert was on all day so it wasn't like they were going to the show if they a 2 hr movie. _________________http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dmXF3CE04A This kills TDKR At the box office next summer..
