Trying to find out if Rocky Mountain will be reporting midweek daily actuals for 2016. My guess is they won't report anything official until Friday, but if I learn different, will pass along the info.

The daily breakdown at the moment for TDKR is:FRI: $2.005 mSAT: $3.165 mSUN: $2.105 m

Revised estimates from WB this morning:The Campaign -- $7.475 mThe Dark Knight Rises -- $7.275 mThe Apparition -- $2.835 mAnd the actual for 2016 Obama's America is in: $6,509,433

A few studio estimates in so far:ParaNorman -- $8,545,883 (-39%)The Campaign -- $7,440,000 (-43%)The Dark Knight Rises -- $7,155,000 (-35%)The Odd Life of Timothy Green -- $7,125,000 (-34%)The Apparition -- $2,955,000 (NEW)Celeste and Jesse Forever -- $300,611 (115 locations)Robot & Frank -- $290,950 (46 locations)Cosmopolis -- $153,420 (63 locations)Searching For Sugar Man -- $128,333 (29 locations)Samsara -- $73,792 (2 locations)Sleepwalk with Me -- $65,000 (1 location)

1. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey2. Django Unchained3. Lincoln4. The Master5. Amour6. Frankenweenie7. Wreck-It Ralph8. Killing Them Softly9. Kick-Ass 210. The Wolverine

A quick heads up that Open Road has yet to report the actual for Hit & Run. Will post it on the website once they do.

With an actual of $1,196,744, the tide has turned!

WB's Dark Knight Rises # from earlier in the morning was $1.19 m.

WB's Early Numbers:The Campaign -- $1.705 mThe Dark Knight Rises -- $1.500 m

One thing to keep in mind is that The Expendables 2 did open 4 days later in the calendar year than The Expendables did back in 2010. That may not sound like much, but it's enough that it can make a difference of a few percent for a Monday decline at this time of year as late-summer midweek business slows down. Also was likely one of the factors (along with smaller grosses and better WOM) in Expendables 2 being a bit less front-loaded than Expendables 1 was over opening weekend.

Early #s From WB:The Campaign -- $1.52 mThe Dark Knight Rises -- $1.37 m

In the tone of Bill Walton, this may not only be one of the greatest films of all-time, it may also end up being one of the crowning achievements in the entire history of Western Civilization.Now, one can only hope that Kanye West and McKayla Maroney agree with that sentiment and then everything will be right in the world.

Don't really have anything to say about it, but I enjoyed this quite a bit more than the first film, which I wasn't crazy about.8.0/B for me.

1. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey2. Django Unchained3. Lincoln4. The Master5. Amour6. Frankenweenie7. Wreck-It Ralph8. Kick-Ass 29. The Wolverine10. Skyfall

Mission: Impossible II <--- happened twice and it almost never happens to me in general :lol:To be fair, it was during my college years and I think I was on very limited sleep the first time around IIRC. It had no excuse the second time around though.

WB's Early #s:The Campaign -- $2.685 mThe Dark Knight Rises -- $2.135 m

WB's Early #s (pretty much the same as those mentioned earlier):The Campaign -- $3.440 mThe Dark Knight Rises -- $2.685 m
