Erm, didn't NEBRASKA blow the pants off that average, also with a 4-theater opening?

 

It had a similar Friday.

UPDATE 'Catching Fire' Box Office: Huge Saturday in low $50sM trending $160M-ish weekend for all-time November record. Global also huge.

15-20% non-previews increase is pretty great

 

Love that #!

 

Here is my reaction when I read that:

I do. But only so that TDKR vileness never holds any kind of record, making its fall into complete obscurity that much faster.

TDKR > any Marvel movie

My GM said Catching Fire was projected to do 475m. I guess he was looking at whatever MTC was.

 

Who is this mysterious orbiter of box office projections? LOL I wonder.

I don't know but tracking will forever be a guessing game so take it with a grain of salt. It's hard to gauge how an entire country will react to a film especially when the margin of error can be so huge with a mega opener like CF.

So CF is nothing like Twilight/potter after all.

 

380m+ back on track.

Too early to say. IM3 had a similar Saturday increase pattern but finished with a Harry Potter like < 2.4 multiplier.

I mean in terms of Saturday increase, not overal legs.

Again take this number with a pinch of salt.

 

I am thinking right around 50m atm.

 

No need to pop open the champagne bottles just yet.
