B, at least the drop is off of 116M, making it slightly over 60%, if it is off the 128M, that would be a disaster

LOL where are all "the the Wal-mart number should have been included in the OW" supporters now?

Very true. These surprises are why I love following box office.Still amazed by WWZ's number

 

I'm not that surprised by the number.  I predicted 65 mill in December for WWZ OW...I wish I would have stuck to my gut for the summer game.

Here.  The drop this week doesn't do anything to make me feel otherwise.  Those were 7pm shows and they should have been included.

 65% drop? How could WB back that up?

Perhaps that's why they didn't want it included.

MOS was supposed to be the competition for WWZ, not the other way around. 

 

I think this is why people are discussing MoS drop in terms of WWZ strong opening, contemplating this reverse of fortune...not really "spinning" anything.

Yeah, that would've been dead on. I was thinking sub 40m, actually about 35 lolIt's making up to twice as much so I was dead wrong

I wonder if WB has any Walmart left to slightly pad this weekend's gross.... And WWZ was really good. 8.5/10

I'm just saying that films in the summer are released in the summer knowing full well that there is a potential new blockbuster every weekend.  The logic is to make your money first weekend and then hang on.  But when you are a film with great WOM, competition doesn't affect you all that much.  TDK (on the blockbuster scale) NYSM and The Help (on a smaller scale) and then you have films like Bridesmaids and The Proposal.  Competition is thrown around as a crutch.
