All the confirmation and recommendation I needed. I'm gonna need to bring booze to this thing.

Tell him about the alternate edition that will blow his mind and enlighten him to have a complete turnaround opinion.

2.11x put BvS at just about 350M. Seems a bit high but hey, that means there's a chance.

What was Origins total multiplier? I guess that's what BvS's multiplier will be now.

From Gitesh update this morning, it's in good shape to be over 50M. Not like last week where 170M was definitely not it. So why the delay?

Did the weekend thread get nuked or something?

@ddddeeee You should have already watched it by now. Come on, I need details, juicy details!

We're all scrambling in speculations and doubts over a simple picture. Well played @Rth!

Gotta be 14.2 cause 12 is just ridiculous. That's like a -47% drop from Sat estimate.

I think it's 14.2 cause Rth has been going by issue numbers every time IIRC.

I'm eagerly waiting for @ddddeeee and @CJohn reviews. Those the only ones that matter.

Some people say ridiculously illogical things in this thread that at first you thought that they're trying to be funny. But then they repeat it so many times, and that makes you think 'oh shit, they really believe it'. Which leads to the next real concern 'are they...okay?'

Yes. Yes, we do. Absolutely.

I like the bordering porno direction that this thread is taking lol

So ~35M WW for Friday. Hard to see it reaching 700M WW by Sunday with that.

Zootopia and the sexy late legs. In China no less. I love it. What's the projected total for BvS?

I have Asian blood in me. I grew up on HK/Chinese wuxia, kungfu, mob, historical, etc...movies. And I'm big on other foreign films too so subtitles is definitely not a problem. I have seen a handfuls of Stephen Chow's movie. A few that I can remember loving/liking are Kungfu Hustle, Shaolin Soccer, King of Comedy, Royal Tramp, King of Beggars. How would you measure The Mermaid among those? I think I'm gonna check it out, haven't watched a Chinese production in a long while. Sounds like it'll be enjoyable at least. Thanks for the reply

Sounds about right. This is really surprising to me. I mean, I'm aware that WOM is at best mixed, but the dailies were not really that bad, definitely not bad enough to give indication of such drop like this for weekend. And without any competitions from openers too. Yikes.

Gitesh's projection seems optimistic while BO.com's looking on the low side to me. It'll fall right smack in the middle of the two numbers I think.

Is The Mermaid any good? Worth checking out?

Would it be masochist of me to subject myself to this thing during my birthday week? And is it sadistic too if I drag my bf and friends into watching it?

Lol, Chastain looks even sadder to me. Man, this movie will be fuuun.

Do it, ddddeeee! And come back here to let us in on all the glorious details.

So was Green Lantern a risky movie for DC? Or does it look too bright to be considered such?

Maybe there won't be a meltdown. He did say the movie is not made for GA and not meant to make money at all. So with this result, he should be rejoicing.
