    I still remember being so disappointed by what happened once Jan hit for TFA. Granted I knew of course big drops were coming, but the holiday performance was so otherworldly I thought WOM was great enough to carry it to 1b for sure once we were at that 3rd weekend gross. And considering I was one of the only ones to predict 1b DOM for it weeks before release, that would have been pretty awesome bragging rights. 

     

    I still remember your post saying a 200M 2nd week-end for TFA would be bonkers.

     

    good times!

    Well that was fun. 

    #1: Don't assume when someone posts a spoiler that you're in the spoiler thread and reply to it with more spoilers. Especially when you're multitasking with multiple browsers open, it's 1am and you're way too tired to have any business still being up.

     

    #2: Why oh why did I edit my summer game predictions that same night at literally the very last second from 800 DOM to 720 and 2.1b to 1.85b WW? Even though it might not hit the former, it will at least make a play at it and I should have stuck to what I my guns were for months.

     

    Moral of the story: If you're tired and it's 1am, go to fucking bed, don't post on BOT

     

    As for that wed #, love how much it's been following TA so far. Second weekend will be 125m+ with a chance at 135m.

  3. So I was trying to picture what was happening in my throat this morning.

     

    Fighting a virus is like the Helm's Deep battle in LOTR: your white cells try to hold the fort (but mostly fail) until, like Éomer, the antibodies arrive and wipe the floor with the virus  :Venom:

    See, this happened with TFA and here's my theory:

     

    When you have a film that has such demand like IW does, you basically have a huge amount of people seeing it on Monday.  They don't care about the price.  So when Tuesday comes around and the price is cheaper, you actually lose a bit of money because almost the same amount of people are seeing on Tuesday as Monday but they are paying less, so the gross goes down.  

     

    Look at the Tuesday numbers for December for TFA:
