Am I the only one who thinks that's actually a pretty terrific number for Hobbit?

[Elessar]

Probably, coz not many had it struggling to hit $200m.

It's a much better number than what I was expecting.

It was always gonna pass $200m.

That's a pretty weak hold for Top Five, even if it hadn't gained 400 theaters.

It's solid. Should have a good weekend multiplier since a midweek bow burned off a good portion of the upfront demand.

Wild is jumping over a lot of movies this weekend....keep an eye on it over the next 10 days.  The female audience over 30 years old is very under-served at the multiplex.

It increased again!

[Noctis]

Great increase.

[Frozen]

AuJ and DoS had multipliers of 3.58 and 3.5.

BoFA should manage 4.0 I guess with a Wed opening.

52m ow will give it 4*52 + 34 = 242m. That's pretty good. Especially in context of the year.

.

I'm sorry to ask but I'm new to this. Why would you only count the weekend in the multiplier and the total amount made since Tuesday night?

[Elessar]

Even better.

[Frozen]

It increased again!

It's mad people keep putting it down! Just like Katniss and the spaceship were!

Someone say Katniss?

[Frozen]

Someone say Katniss?

If I say it three times, will she appear

Well, i hope. LOTRs did increase less. But they also did increase less on Friday, so...

 

*fingers crossed*

[DAJK]

Much better than expected for Hobbit. I'm waiting for the NATM numbers now; I hope it didn't decrease again from last night's estimates.

I just watched Arthur Christmas, and for some reason I keep reading every single post in James MacAvoy's Arthur voice
