Elessar - yes, Rth can make mistakes. No analyst is perfect. But the fact that he is kind enough to give us access to numbers long before Deadline or THR or anyone else, is worthy of respect. When I first joined the forum I didn't understand the praise he got, but I have since realised that 9 times out of 10, he is pretty much spot on. As baumer said, this is a forum for people who are interested in box office, and having exclusive access to early box office numbers is really neat.
