BourneFan #1 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 My IMAX screening this morning at 10:00 AM was 100% sold out. Thank God that I got there an hour before the movie started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KATCH-2D2 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I don't think 250m is even in play but 245m is already a nice semi-round number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spizzer Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 2 minutes ago, Baumer Fett said: Dude, we all remember. That weekend was one of the greatest of all time just for sheer hilarity. From Brandon Gray: * Note: Revenge of the Fallen's weekend gross fell $3 million short of Paramount's Sunday estimate, which would have put the five-day opening at $198.2 million. Though shy of $200 million, it would have still ranked second among the all time five-day starts. However, Paramount revised its grosses from Wednesday and Thursday upward, and that's what pushed the total past $200 million. Wednesday went from $60.6 million to $62.0 million, and Thursday went from $28.6 million to $29.1 million. Paramount reported that the differences came from unreported showings from the movie's midnight openings on Wednesday night, which went from the previously reported $16 million at around 3,000 theaters to $16.8 million at close to 3,300 theaters, as well as late reports from institutional IMAX locations and theaters in Puerto Rico and some Caribbean islands (which the studio counts in its domestic numbers), which accounted for $1.1 million of the difference. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=2601&p=.htm Didn't you send them a letter on this? Or was that something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No asterisk for T4 but everyone knows Paramount did the same thing for it's O/W to hit $100m last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was even better when the weekday numbers started coming in lower than reported to make up the fudge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woah, ROTJ adjusts to $60,800 per theatre without 3D or IMAX and without previews. And probably with a fair number of children as well. How the heck did that happen?
