more like second by second

I'd like to believe the former instead of the latter.

Every movie seems to be rising at the moment, pretty damn crazy/awesome.

Looks like I did well in predicting for WWZ for this weekend.

Wow, WHD increased 10M in estimates the last hour or so .... talk about a mental day

WHD up to 33.5 according to Nikki now ....... 3. White House Down (Sony) NEW [Runs 3,222]Friday $11.0M, Est Weekend $33.5M Unfortunately earlier release Olympus Has Fallen had a similar plot. Sony admits White House Down is in a tough slot now after WWZ opened so surprisingly strong last weekend. White House pic did $1.35M in Thursday late shows/Friday midnights. Studio claims budget was $150M which is expensive. (“If you see the movie, you will see the money on the screen. And compared to other summer fare and budgets, it very reasonable given the film,” a Sony exec tells me.) No way this pic earns out. Could be big loss depending how it does overseas. Opens day and date in about two dozen small countries this weekend (ie Aruba, Ethiopia, Kenya, Iraq). The first major international territory will not open until mid-July. via Deadline

I think that TLR will underperform. It's screwed by being in a crowded schedule filled with action movies, and having it's potential family audience stolen by the one two punch that'll be DM2 + MU.

So 2 or so minutes is when Nikki is estimated to update? Or later?

The Lone Ranger really seems like it'll be screwed this week/weekend

it's still pretty early. WHD could still make it to the thirties, and The Heat could possibly lower a bit. But yeah, This weekend is just too damn crowded.

Even with this horrid drop for MoS, there is still a strong chance that it can pull 300M. It'll make around 60+M for the entire week, and it'll probably have a fifty or so percent drop the next week, and next week has fourth of July, so it'll have a strong week. There is still a strong chance for a 300M finale.

I don't know how July will be as exciting/surprising as June this year. It feels like this month was surprise after surprise.Unless PR goes huge, i don't think that it can possibly be as amazing as this month at the BO.

I think that 240 is the barrier on this weekend, if it does break it, then it is another story. But still this weekend is very epic!

if the top three DO get to 200 mill, and if you add in the other 9 holdovers, then if they hold nicely we can be looking at 230 to 240 is .... WOW It could go higher if the estimates go up on the big three (which can be very possible for MU imho)

I think that the top 12 could definitely top 200+ this weekend, and possibly 215+. Wow those are amazing numbers for a weekend in the middle of June with no long weekend.

Wow. This weekend is freakin' huge! (Wonder if next weekend's releases will be crushed.....)

So what are the top three expected to earn now? (I've been gone for awhile, and don't feel like catching up o n the last 40 or so pages )

have we gotten any early numbers for MoS yet? Hoping it can cross the 50 threshold!

World War Z UltraAVX June 21st 2:10pm 35% full Trailers: Elysium - no reaction Pacific Rim - no reaction Anchorman 2 - laughs (it was the old teaser that was shown) Wolf on Wall Street - laughs, some people murmuring that it looked pretty cool Movie: I entered the movie with pretty low expectations, and the film ended up blowing me away. I really ended up enjoying the flick more than I ever thought I would. The use of 3D was way better than MoS, and was used really well. I was scared that the zombies would all be CGIed, but they weren't that much. Overall this was an excellent popcorn flick 8/10.

This weekend is gonna be pretty damn huge, (but it's not like we haven't known that for awhile though)

Yeah, I was basing it on my predictions. I originally thought that (compared to what I predicted) that the movie could overperform, or seriously underperform, but as I heightened my prediction I thought that it would be right range (lower to mid forties).

I really thought that WWZ would underperform, and that my prediction was hitting it's barrier... Looks like it's gonna overperform

is there any chance that saturday might increase aswell?

Is thee a chance that Saturday might increase aswell?

60% fall for Internship.....wow
