Plain Old Tele Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Nikki's SH2 IM seems a tad high, and her CHIP3 IM a bit low (unfortunately). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Looks like MI4 might break out, at least. Plus there's still Dragon Tattoo, Tintin and War Horse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Bad for Sherlock and Alvin. Another steep drop for Muppets and BD. Decent for everything else Edited December 17, 2011 by Shriekofthevulture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 MUHAHAAHAAA!! That Alvin number is making me soooooo happy!SH2's number is looking very good compared to that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTF Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Wow Alvin 3 went from a $10m estimate to $7.4m!? That's terrible, though I can't say I'm disappointed- the movie looks like garbage, reviews seem to confirm that, so I'm glad families aren't wasting their money. Go see the Muppets or Hugo (or even Arthur Christmas) instread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ariadne Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Terrible weekend. I thought I was lowballing things (55m for SH2, 31m for Alvin 3) in survivor - LOL. At least I nailed MI4.Nikki's Young Adult weekend estimate is whack - $1.2m? Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fake Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Tintin is screwed domesticallyNo it isn't. Parents have refused to take their kids to the Chipmunks crap. They will take them to Spielberg-directed and critically acclaimed Tintin instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
