And DP was off by a whole million with his 140 prediction he's been making for the past several months. With his $177 million prediction? I saw him predicting 140 million for a long time now. The last day or two he went goofy, trying to build excitement and making all sorts of outrageous claims but I didn't take them seriously.
Um, I am very certain that his $70+ million opening day predictions were serious.

I'm not sure if that's a joke but they filmed Pirates 3 concurrently with Pirates 2.

And DAMN! We all knew it was coming so it's not too shocking, but still very nice to see. It wouldn't have fit with BO history for it to only beat Spider-Man by a couple million. New opening records usually demolish the old ones.

Agreed. I see a weekend multiplier of 1.1, leading on to an eventual final gross multiplier of 1.11.

One could argue that because of the low Yahoo ratio, there is also not as much of a rush for the movie. Just everyone wanted to see it! So Im going with a 20% raise on saturday.
55-66-47 Weekend of 168. DPO7 Doesnt seem so crazy NOW, does he?!?!?!?!
