Excellent for DVC and OTH.

Glad to see M:I-3 still doing well too. Maybe it can still approach $140 million...

It was a holiday in Canada which probably kept the numbers a bit higher than normal.

Grat number for Da Vinci, though the Canadian holiday obvioulsy had an effect. It will be down 15-20% today..

Thats it for DaVinci, how disappointing...it has no chance at $300 at all, and will struggle to $250, $200 is tops.
What a huge failure....

IMO, it does bode well for a solid Memorial Day weekend, though.

Good monday for Da Vinci.

Nice for Da Vinci, but expected.

If Da Vinci is going to have strong midweek sales because of it's older audience, that bodes very well for it's final gross... 250 million seems probable to me, barring it completely falling apart over the memorial day weekend.

If Da Vinci were to follow Sith's pattern 'till Monday, it would look like this...

Monday: $8.8 million (-58%)
Tuesday: $6.1 million (-31%)
Wednesday: $5.3 million (-13%)
Thursday: $5.6 million (+5%)
Friday: $9.6 million (+72%)
Saturday: $12.9 million (+34%)
Sunday: $11.5 million (-11%)
Monday: $9.2 million (-20%)

3-Day: $34.0 million (-56%)
4-Day: $43.2 million (-44%)

I consider a figure like this a minimum, but if it continues to follow the pattern (since both had identical Monday drops and WOM is average for Da Vinci), it could see a pretty big drop. Although with this, it just needs another $54 million to make $200 million.

But that is nornmal. It fell pretty much exactly what SW did last year. Based on that, the 15-20% is normal as well. Still, that is a great hold for DVC.

Yay for DVC. While it did have the Canadian holiday, all films at the box office had the Canadian holiday, so it is very nice to see it have the best drop in the top 10 (besides the kids film Ice Age, which dropped 1% less). I'm pretty happy. It all depends whether it will actually keep it up or whether it drops like a rock from now on out. Heh.

PEACE, Mike.

Great Monday number for DVC! I think it'll serve as a great Adult alternative this holiday weekend (that X3 will obviously own) and will do the numbers Zingaling's predicts (perhaps a bit better without the competing audience that ROTS had with LONGEST YARD and, to a degree, MADAGASCAR).

Even though the movie itself is a bit below average, I'm always happy for a Tom Hanks' success!

Nice for DaVinci Code, seeing it on Thursday.

Solid for Over The Hedge.

2 Interesting Monday to Monday drops...

Just My Luck: -9.3%.
RV: -9.8%.

Is this a sign of a very small drop or small increase this 4 day weekend?

I don't think it means anything. The films dropped a little harder than usual last Monday because of Mother's Day on Sunday, and yesterday, there was a Canadian Holiday.

Mothers Day was last sunday

I doubt The Da Vinci Code will follow Siths patterns. It's legs will be stronger, reflective of its more mature audience.

Just because I KNOW its going to happen tommorow, Da Vinci will have a bigger drop than the other films, so don't go on about the bad wom, because the big Tuesday drop won't be because of that (the weekend will be a better indicator of WOM). Canada has among 2/6 and 3/10 cities on Google trends to search "Da Vinci Code" this year, and it is enormously popular here. The weekend to weekend stats also showed that Canada's box office went up 109% this past weekend, compared to last weekend (Poseidon), while the closest region to this was 70% up from last weekend. Da Vinci was really pushed by Canada, so it will get a bigger drop than the rest of the top 10 (or one of the less impressive ones at least) but it isn't a great indicator of bad wom.

Yeah, the media in Quebec were talking about it beating Titanic, the most popular ever ($15M CAN).

the Da Vinci code will break 50m again next wknd

That is big numbers for DVC, but I stil think its the hype, during the week it will get $7m - $6m a day. Which is pretty good, and now we can see from the day $$$, that summer is here.


OTH - hopefully it will do $150m+, its got good day numbers.

MI:3, holded very well. So did R.V.

Da Vinci Code conquers
