Been away for a while but had to come back and be here for this record breaking weekend! $1b ww ow will be insane to see! Also, for the dom OD, what’s the consensus atm? $60m previews and $70m Fri for $130m OD?
Seeing it in 6 hours and can’t wait!!
Hopefully soon, as I know we’re all ANTicipating the #s...ba-dum-bum.
Edit: $11.5m, hoping for a tad higher after last nights early estimates, but a very nice # regardless.

There was def upfront demand, but this drop is not really because it’s playing like a superhero movie, it’s because its second weekend had a $150m ow movie. We’ve never had back to back weekends even close to this high before.
edit: Also 56%, not 66.
Just watched this last night and it was pretty damn great. A good amount didn't make sense as Frozen has pointed out (I too was like how the hell did stalker David either know she'd be committed or get hired so quickly, but I think there was a conversation he was having with another staff woman about how he was transferred there from another hospital I think?) but it was gripping, uncomfortable, scary and tense as all hell.
Also Claire Foy was simply brilliant/amazing. I unfortunately expect she'll be forgotten come awards time but she deserves best actress noms from the major awards places.
I also worried the whole shot on an iphone "gimmick" would bother me but after like 5-10min I adjusted and it was fine (and pretty impressive actually).
Def recommend. High B+/low A-.
It's also going to be amazing to have 3 $600m dom grossers in one year...when we've never even had 2 before!
And next year has the potential for possibly 4
