excel, it's doing better at every single theater in the country then X3. I think it's quite obvious that 35m is beyond impossible.

Um, Dark Shape is right. People went for DINOSAURS.


hmm, you think that a big budget dinosaur movie not based on a immensely popular book, and without the most popular director of all time at the helm, would have attracted audiences just as much as jurassic park did?

Same as before. I think capacity was just lower then I expected (causing people to be turned away from sellouts), so business will be shifted from the first couple days to later.

The WOM is quite good and it has little real competition. But the opening is just so huge...I see 3 even.

The Passion, Spider-Man, Shrek 2 etc. Why would a huge opening frontload it?

Everyone should remember that the original has massive weekdays. Over 60% of the weekend each time until schools started. Now, with more frontloading it will be lower, but it will still be above average. A multiplier of 3 is quite easy unless it has a massive drop, which there is no indication of as far as I can tell.
