Wow Invincible...

Heh, I remember you (and many others) thinking it'd not succeed because it looks generic and doesn't stand out.

Thing is...a generic sports film will always be box-office gold.

Snakes on a Plane declined by 51% for the 4-day portion. How horrible.

By the way...

42 N Idiocracy Fox $177,559 - 130 - $1,365 $177,559 - 1

4-day number.

Poor Mike Judge.

looks like barnyard will top out between 80-82m

Thats over a 5 multiplier

and wow at invinceable.

superman im for the 3 day was 5!

Superman Returns WB $1,115,228 +42.9%

It can make it to 200mill.

63 58 Leonard Cohen I'm Your Man Lions $27,028 -17.6% 38 -10 $711 $1,003,345 - 11

Ok, well, at least Cohen finally hit 1 million over the three day. At one point I was sure this would make 2 million, and was holding out for three. This isn't bad though, I guess.

Half Nelson held very well also. Not Illusionist well, as 6,500 isn't quite as impressive for 36 theatres, but its still a great number for the theatre expansion and its already one month running release. Should have been up closer to 60 theatres by now, imo, as its actually had great pta's and strong reception.

Crank did much less then I was expecting, but at least Little Miss Sunshine is doing great.

Little Miss Sunshine and The Illusionist are expanding brilliantly.

I guess the studios have been ignoring the "art house" crowd over the summer, and those two movies are reaping the benefits because of it.
