$9M is still a good opening even if it's lower than people expected.

 

[Cmasterclay]

Wow! Wow!

 

Also, hey, baumer, my friend, for those of us that said above 47.5 OD in the ultimate SOTM, what's the deal with Wal-Mart screenings in relation to that.?

[Jessie]

Free bought 12 million dollars worth of tickets and basically sold or given away at their locations that is why the twelve million figure is there as well as the 9mill.

 

so did any of these 12m worth of tickets actually get used at midnight?

A lot of what that could have been had to have been bled off by the Walmart screening.

[baumer]

MAN OF FLOP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I assume u are joking. A reboot getting 9 mill midnights is enormous

if BOM has it down as part of its OD then that is the figure.

[filmnerdjamie]

$100M 3-day locked?

Predict by the end of this page, the news will be posted 5 more times.

None at all. 

...

...

Some got used at 7:00, though, if I understand correctly

[Neo]

I assume u are joking. A reboot getting 9 mill midnights is enormous ginormous.

Some people are stupid. Before you guys prepare for your next flop pun, think about how good $9M is for a reboot of a franchise that hit it's bottom in 2006.

So the 12m doesn't count towards the gross? I'm confused.

 

Either way, 40m OD and 100m opening is happening.

 

 

[DAR]

Because it wasn't 10 million without the Walmart.

Haha of course. I would've been happy with anywhere near 7~8m

[bapi]

I think this is good for MoS.

It all counts. Im shocked that ANYONE would think 9 mill is just ok. How mch did Avengers do? Go find the midnught number from any other film not named Potter or Twilight and this is gigantic.

[Jack Nevada]

It'll get an OW thats at least 50M bigger than SR's
