Wednesday Numbers (05/15)(Trek 3.25M early IMAX+midnts, GG 3.9, IM3 3.8)

[#ED]

So 100M for the 4 day isn't locked?

Does anyone else ever get the feeling that Nikki makes up these exec quotes for the lols?

Probably. No one else talks like that.

So, what numbers for Trek OW justify a meltdown? I have to prepare myself

Yes.

[RyneOh1040]

Yeah, similar numbers, but with the added gross from Thursday and Wednesday night previews.

Yeah that's fair.  I know Thursday will kill fanboy rush but I'm still hoping 90 can happen.

[Jack Nevada]

Either she makes the quotes up or that is the most easily impressed exec of all time

It's not spin you can't judge the weekend by these numbers.

It is not judging the weekend. It is all about preview+midnight. Bad is bad.

Meltdowns are always epic on BO.com. 

[ecstasy]

sigh- I expected much more from Star Trek midnights though. That's really low. Release date change or not. Even with the change I expected about 7m. How could fans not know the release date?  I can see the GA not knowing. They go the moves just because. Midnights are important to fans. So I guess Thursday will be subdued as well but I do expect a big Friday.

Hmmm... tracking has the 3-day in the 90Ms region. Anything below... $80M.

Do you have any other words in your vocabulary than bad, flop, bomb? Most people don't even know Star Trek opens today, these midnIght numbers are hardly accurate of the film's buzz. Edited May 16, 2013 by riczhang

Rallax's theater had a 3-person showing yesterday. We should have foreseen that number

The exec is really Luhrmann.

[ecstasy]

 

LOL That is embarrassing. Nikki gives no fucks.

You mean the exec was sitting in his office at the time going "This is a tremendous coffee for the ages." "Oh man, this is an incredible chair for the ages."

Add 'doomed' into there, and I think that's about right.

Trekkies do know lol.
