Its your own fault you never listen to me.
BTW, people are overpredicting its Sunday drop. Two words for y'all, which gaurantee a slightly lower Friday and higher Sunday (aside from no midnight screenings on the first): Senior Citizens.

And the Canadian holiday on Monday should ensure that it drops about 20% or less.

It'll have a nice drop on Sunday because of the Canadian holiday. Sith dropped 16% on the same Sunday last year, and followed up with another nice drop on Monday.

Good grade jump for DVC, especially at 3000+ reviews.

Unless we get an incredible finish for DVC, I'm not sure Yahoo will be entirely accurate. The crowd reports point to a $30M+ Friday while Yahoo stands to put the opening day closer to $25M, IMO.

Maybe somewhere in between. I am going to say 28 million.

While there are ALOT of fake reviews, I also feel that the lack of presence on the new preview Yahoo screen had some type of effect, and so that alot of reviews that may have been added were not. I'm going to throw in the number $29.34 m. I'm not giving the benefit to Yahoo reviews, as they changed their format this week, and alot of people (myself included) use the new site and not the old. For Over The Hedge, I'll say $8.83 m.

Do you work on a computer 24/7?!?
It's like you never do anything else on Friday's except for posting Yahoo numbers

2. It's clogged. Must be at least 4,000, probably 4,500+.
A ratio under 150 wouldn't exactly shock me. It has 30m+ IMO.

What most people don't realise is that Xiayun is in fact not a single user, but an account accessed by four specially trained mice, each taking shifts to update Yahoo numbers and hunt for small grains and discarded fruit.

Yeah, I do work in front of a computer, and check the updates at :35 each hour.

I'm thinking $1-1.5m for See No Evil and 9-10.5m for Over the Hedge.

I want to find out who trained those mice to speak coherent English.
