Hmmm... The Wrap article seems to read that it's for Tues and all of Wed.  The Paramount projection of under $3m for Tue - Thur seems to match that.

Christopher Nolan‘s “Interstellar” will bring in an estimated $1.5 million from special IMAX and 70mm and 35mm film screenings Tuesday night and Wednesday.

Paramount, which is distributing the film domestically, projects a three-day total in the $55 million range and just under $58 million from Tuesday through Sunday for “Interstellar.”

So now we also know Paramount's official (conservative) goal is 55m. Figures they're hoping it's in the low 60s then.

They're gonna have some spinning to do when it comes in way under $55m.

With apparently a few hiccups here and there.

[TalismanRing]

I wonder how they're going to break down the w/e numbers since there will be Thur shows are going to have premiers in probably 3000 plus theaters.   Are they going to fold the day in with the Tue-Wed previews and the evenings in with the w/e.  Because they have to be expecting bigger Thur night numbers than what Wrap implies...

Apparently there is a BH6 review embargo till Friday for a lot of publications. That is one weird embargo, especially for an animated movie.

Very odd if true since embargos are usually across the board and if one breaks it breaks.  I wouldn't expect to start seeing most reviews until Wed with most on Thur and Fri anyway.

$1.5M for Tuesday and all of today is bad actually.

Yeah... Not sure why they'd do that with an animated film...  It's not like reviews generally make a huge difference when marketing to kids.  Maybe they're worried about spoilers, since nowadays a lot of reviewers seem to think 'review' is synonymous with 'tell us the whole f**king plot without warning for it".

250 theaters? Bad? Explain.

Let's not forget previews will probably go into Weds total gross just like every other movie these days.

1.5M is actually good.

[John Marston]

If it was full release it would be bad but it was only 250 theaters

[Mango]

Its also in the middle of the week in early November so realistically film fans probably make up most of the crowd.

So we could see an estimate tomorrow for Wednesday.

Of course everyone will cry about how Tuesday was added into Weds and count as "OD in limited screens", even though every movie does it these days.

[Michael Seng Wah]

$1.5mil is good IMO, I expect less than a million.
