LexJoker Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Friday update: Friday Update: Sources tell NikkeFinke.com that Hobbit 2 will push Frozen out of first place this weekend. Peter Jackson's latest Gandalf flick is headed for as much as $35 million on it's opening day, in which 6 million of that came from early showings and midnights last night. Based on early sellouts today in places like Anchorage, Saskatoon and Dawson City, it should have a range of 20-35 mill for it's opening day. It could reach 80 million for the weekend. Stay tuned for further updates later this morning as the west coast wakes up. @nikkefinke What a tight, accurate range! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druv10 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I never really kept up with Nikki, but that's just tragic. Baumer made it up, we've no numbers other than Rth saying it's bigger than Thor 2's 7M+. We won't see Nikkifinke.com until next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druv10 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Lol, well that's very mean on Baumer's part, because I'm sure a lot of people believed him. XD But when the given range is 20-35M, thats a dead giveaway he pulled it out of his ass. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iceroll Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 And also he spelt her name wrong, it's "Nikki Finke" not "Nikke Finke". Even given her poor judgement I'd think she would know how to spell her own name right 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
