If it gets to 400 you know Lionsgate is going to try as hard as possible to get it to beat IM3 lol. They'll leave it in the theatre forever.

LOL no love for Hobbit

Yeah that's what I was thinking at first but like the movie starts and ends with Rose and is told mostly from her point of view. What really differentiates her from Katniss who has the story told in her point of view as well. Peeta is in the movie a lot too like Jack. Is it that it's a love story? NOT trying to downgrade CF at all, just genuinely wondering.

Does Rose count as the lead of the movie in Titanic? Probably right?

LOL don't diss IM3 it was a good movie You are clearly a Marvel hater (CF was obviously better though)

Movies that have won the year in the past 33 years. None of have a female lead I think (except maybe Titanic) [*] Related Chart: The Past 365 Days Year Total Gross* Change Tickets Sold Change # of Movies Total Screens Avg. Ticket Price Avg.

Entirely on a female lead's shoulder's? Probably never. It would make history.

I thought Goffe loved CF, why is he hating on it

WOW CF has like a 60% chance at beating IM3 (arbitrary number I know ). Get that money CF!!!!! I loved IM3, but it would be awesome to see a 2D film with a female lead win the year!

Awesome Catching Fire. LOL I actually can't believe all the meltdowns that happened on Friday now. But I have to say GO FROZEN GO!!!! Get that money! (Seeing it this Friday!!)

LOL I just read through all 29 pages! Congrats Ed!

Ed is pregnant? Isn't he a guy though :/

so are there any estimates for Saturday 9? (I don't want to read through 80 pages )

Stid was a good film guys.

Umm not fair comparison. Lack of expanded ww markets

I thuink THG was very well received by it's fanebase, but maybe not so much by general audiences maybe. I know ui loved THG but I know people who thought it was "boring" or "weird"

67.5 million is actually good. If it had made 60 million or something then that would be cause for concern.

That's good. That would give it the november record and give it the 8th biggest OW of all time.

when will official numbers come in?

no more of the meltdown is in the midnight thread when rth said that it was following DH1. It was the first time peopl realized it was underperforming. IT was hilarious. It starts on page 28 of the Thursday preview thread.

I really want to go to bed. I just want Rth to give us numbers lol

LOL ok negative nancy

Ok oww so this thread has resorted to dissing IM3

please shut up fake. please.

CF is better received than IM2 doe
