Yeah there is no being disappointed in JW numbers. It's gonna be way past my predicted total 320m by the end of next weekend. It's almost certain to gross over $500m. Think about that. $500m dom. That's only been done 4x previous.
This weekend was pretty much what these forums were made for. So much excitement here! Next weekend is gonna be awesome as well. IO should still do great and it will be fascinating to see JW's hold. Right now I'm thinking right around 100m, although Father's Day could really soften the drop.
Wow. Went to sleep last night thinking 76-79 and woke up to another rth update. Fuck it, hoping for it to beat the all-time OW record. It's impossible to be disappointed with JW success anyways.
Of course I'm not saying it's not important. It's just been far more important at other points, look at the 90's and earlier. Not, as you claim, more important than ever.
