LOL at your Epic stuff. I'm so lazy I didn't even check the username, I just thought it was Rth for a second.

[Sam]

just got back looks like Th3 15-16 today solid west coast business FF6 could be anywhere between 5-7 previews, its def overperforming in the west coast, epic has INSANE preview grosses 10+ depending on west coast and huge presales for weekend ahead(I want to see how close I am...)

Wait, "epic has insane preview?" as in the animation Epic?

THURSDAY 11:30 PM, 2ND UPDATE: Warner Bros’ The Hangover Part III co-financed with Legendary Pictures went wide in 3,555 North American theaters today and my sources say it opened to $11 million which includes the $3.1M from Wednesday late shows and Thursday midnights. That’s miniscule compared to The Hangover Part II‘s Thursday opening on May 26, 2011 of $31.6M at 3,615 locations, which was the highest-grossing opening day ever for a live-action comedy. (H3‘s also is less than Thursday’s $13.5M debut a week ago for Star Trek Into Darkness.) Plus audiences only gave The Hangover Part III a ‘B’ CinemaScore compared to the ‘A-’ which the sequel scored. This threequel also scored even worse reviews (only 26% positive on Rotten Tomatoes) than H2 (34%) which was considered embarrassingly awful

Oh my god. It died. Let the under 100m total talk begin...

The numbers keep dropping

Fans were absolutely PISSED at the second Hangover!

LOL

I missed the best part of Nikki's article!

 

But it’s still going to make a lot of moolah: worldwide moviegoers really like this mindless crap especially during the summer months.

Lame OD. At least Fast 6 is more than ready to pick up the slack.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

But "B" cinemascore is not that bad, right ?

The queen speaks the truth. 

[Biggestgeekever]

So $7.9m day business. $15m feels like the absolute best case for Friday.

[Sam]

But but 100% increase tomorrow will turn things around

[blackspider]

Audiences must've hated Part II a lot more than they hated TF2. That is an embarrassing start for a movie whose two predecessors both cleared 250m.

11M/15M/15M/13M/9M = 63M opening ?

I predicted 52M for the 4 day. That might have been too much!
