Early Friday Numbers: New Years Eve - 5M / The Sitter - 3.75M / Breaking Dawn P1 - 2.5M

[Ariadne]

$10M weekend will give BD1 a great shot at passing NM, but I think that number will go down a bit.

I agree, it'll probably end up being a 9-9.5m weekend (it was overestimated last week). But even a 9m weekend is only a 45% drop and will gain it another million on NM.

Can't wait for next weekend

That's a huge change in the estimate for BD1 from earlier in the evening, taking its percent increase from Thursday from being significantly better than NM's to significantly worse. I'll be very curious to see what the studio estimate is in the morning.

[Fanboy]

Haha. Die Twilight. :lol:That's actually a little disappointing for Hugo considering how many theaters it gained.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Another disappointing weekend.

[reddevil18]

Hmmm...big swing for BD1. I think the studio estimates will be somewhere in the middle.

[Heretic]

What a pathetic weekend.

[Hiccup]

Boring and lame weekend

Specialty Openings: Paramount’s The Adventures Of Tintin is having a great start in North America’s Quebec after a very successful European run. Focus Features’ European hit Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is looking at big per screen averages in its 4 runs: NYC’s Lincoln Square – $21,086 and NYC’s Village $24,106. Paramount’s Young Adult is looking soft in 8 theaters based on per screen averages: NYC’s Lincoln Square – $11,304, NYC’s Union Square – $18,511, Minnesota’s Uptown - $4,709.
