lol its called getting out of bed early on Sat/sunday morning or staying up till 3am in the morning, boot up you computer look at numbers, work out an estimate give it to media etc..Then go back to bed or have breakfast and go play golf or something.
not all theatres are collected (we are talking hundreds) and further more audited (ie if something happens to go in at 10k instead of 1k or vice versa) till monday. When missing grosses are collected ,corrections made, estimates for anything can't get by the deadline etc The rest of the week people are at work so figures from monday night get worked on Tues am.
Also Matinee/hourly tracking is only for max of 1/2 theatres, so say extropolating from a 2pm number what the whole day might look like may only be based on for example 2000 of 4000 theatres
Looks like apes should end up around 5.8 so a little higherfor the new films thurs I'll say thisPlanes shouldn't have bothered at all badP2 don't see it getting to level of 1st,ST yeah soft like notfabio said
