Good news for BD1 - (I don't have a link right now) but it's rating has been change to M. Wonder what Summit did to get it through... did they cut something out ?

[lab276 4,486]

No, they (the OFLC) probably just overrated it in the first place.

[JJ-8 5,926]

yes true... apparently we live in a nanny state.... and if conjob gets his way our internet will be filtered too...

[lab276 4,486]

They seem to have a problem with overrating. Possibly the most puzzling rating is Tangled, PG for discernible reason.

And everything goes back to normal now. Except the lack of buzz for BD, though I think all the people who hated this book but are twilight fans will go to see it. Just to see how they did it. I'm going to see it on either monday or wednesday.... There goes 2 hours of my life!

[JJ-8 5,926]

I for one won't be seeing BD.... in fact i've never seen any of the twilight films in cinema - and have only seen the first one still ;)now true blood... thats a vampire show worth watching :D - jajang

[Totem 539]

That was quick.

[Ball Lightning 681]

I haven't seen #1, #2 is in my 5 worst films of all time :/ #3 was better, but just bad..

[JJ-8 5,926]

Nah. It was probably the money that Summit quietly passed under the table to the people that rated the movie. Haha.I really doubt the sex scene is that bad. Probably nothing worse than what people in the US normally see on network tv.

[Robertron 3,041]

Any word yet on Breaking Dawn midnights?I'm thinking a million flat, give or take a bit.

[JJ-8 5,926]

Not far off rob. 1.27m USD mids. (from Nikki)Above DH1 but below eclipse and new moon. (both around 1.7m mids if memory serves.)

[Ball Lightning 681]

Mine was more therm DH1, but less then Eclipse.. So i'm not sure what that equates to solid thursday numbers too.

[Robertron 3,041]

Anybody heard of a movie called The Orator?It is doing huge business at my work, we're cancelling sessions of other movies, adding in extra times. Its quite bizarre honestly.I YouTube'd it and apparently its a Samoan film

[Rthtr 44,613]

TBD:pt1 3.669mil (Eclipse 4.4mil, NM 5mil) 3rd biggest Nov opday behind NM & HPDH:pt1Orator ranked #6 48k 14 prints

[Robertron 3,041]

Pretty disappointing for BD. Was expecting at least $4m OD!What were day-by-day grosses for NM and Eclipse on OW? Just for a rough estimate as to where this is heading.Im guessing around 11.5m for the 4-day.

[Fake 3,454]

3.5-4m was what I was expecting.Decent.

[JJ-8 5,926]

ok here some analysis of where this might be heading.For comparison:New Moonmids = 1.7mOD = 5m% of OD (mids) = 34%Deathly Hallows 1mids = 1mOD = 4m% of OD = 25%Breaking Dawn 1mids = 1.27mOD = 3.7m% of OD = 34%Ok so the mids % was similar to new moon. Now off a OD of 5m, New Moon made 16.1m OW. This equates to an OW of 11.9m (or very nearly 12m) for Breaking Dawn 1. If BD1 follows closer to DH1 for the weekend we could see an OW of 14.3m. However I'm thinking it will follow a similar trajectory to new moon given the similar breakdown already % wise. 12m appears to be where BD1 is heading.- jajang
