Can i haz you autograph?

[Leyla]

So how big is The Hobbit DOS supposed to open?

with my 'luck' 55 mil  

 

good increase for TDW btw

[druv10]

any clue what the previous biggest aggregate Thanksgiving was?

 

Not sure but 5-day Thanksgiving record is 82M+. Both CF and Frozen could be higher so that record is going down for sure.

[Batman]

BOM projects 95M for 5 days!

Last year cumilative gross was just over 200M for top 12(and over $207M for overall). But this weekend could go after all time record set during avatar's 2nd weekend.

Sorry, I can't see, my eyes have popped out of my head.

22M is just an estimate, right?

It's an Rth estimate which pretty much means it's an actual.

[Leyla]

happy Thanksgiving btw to those who celebrate

 

[Noctis]

I'm just thrilled at this number.

[TLE]

Does Rose count as the lead of the movie in Titanic? Probably right? 

 

She's *A* lead, but Leonardo DiCaprio had top billing, while Jennifer Lawrence has top billing in Catching Fire.

Last year.

She is the main character though, in the film.

CF $22M????

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

I'm just thrilled at this number.

 

 

When you get thrilled, insurance companies get nervous.

[BoxOfficeZ]

22m??!?!?! Unreal jump.

 

Frozen, awesome debut.

 

I fucking love fall.

She's the lead! Has many more screen time than Leo! It appears first and last, she tells the story! The movie tries to tell her love story, her learnings aboard the Titanic!

 

Jack's existance only matters when related to Rose. Look at the supporting characters and who are related to.

With a 22 million Wednesday, and unless something strange happens, I would say over 100 million 5-day is locked. It could be close to 110 (22+16+29+28+14=109). So, 295 by Sunday. 400 million run is back and probably done. Congrats to Katniss fans.

[stripe]

It could follow that somewhat conservative pattern.

 

22M

14M (-35%)

28M (100%)

25M (-10%)

13M (-48%)

 

102M 5day - 66M 3day

DOM in 10 days - 288M

 

That makes funnier to think about people's meltdown when first Friday numbers arrived.

Looking good for CF and Frozen! I hope Gravity and Captain Phillips will also have good holds this weekend

Just wanna say I told everyone melting down on Friday that CF still had a shot to beat THG. I said it then and I'll say it again, the THG franchise is not Twilight or Potter. It has a significant adult only following that's not gonna rush out to see it on OW. But as we're seeing now, doesn't mean they weren't gonna see it at all. This is a franchise with huge OWs and sexy legs. IM3 is going down. 

 

Also strong start for Frozen, and another hit for WDA it looks like. Tangled had a 12m Wednesday OD, so even if legs aren't as good as that 200m still seems like a safe bet for Frozen.
