Holy shit you guys: I just realized the high end of the range gives it A BETTER FIRST MONDAY HOLD THAN FUCKING AVATAR. 

IMPOSSIBRO

It's very very early....but a 32% drop in this situation isn't exactly the kind of performance you expect from a film about to do only a 4.0 multiplier.  Just putting that out there, not saying anything conclusive w/regards to end gross.

I keep having to remind myself it is December when i see these numbers. Mind boggling

Mendelson can choke on those "frontloaded" comments and articles. 

He said he would give Star Wars 2.04x multiplier if it opened in summer =))

I wonder what will he do after Monday and second weekend report?

That's the one thing I noticed.

 

If it comes out with a better hold than a movie like Avatar... watch out. We're witnessing history right now. Not just your typical big OW that we experience every couple years (or in this case, twice a year), but history that we only see once a decade.

I'm all out of likes, I'm so lost without them....

There were stories of  40 million Monday...

 

They were true...

Pssht! Forget "once a decade." If it keeps this up, Titanic's all time first run attendance record is in play.

Avatar dropped 34%. So are you saying 5x?

Food for thought:  The last time a OW record holder had a multiplier higher than 4 was Jurassic Park back in 1993.

Oh boy ...

 

We re in for a wild ride, probably a legendary box office run & yep, dom, Avatar is probably toasted.

 

This movie is going nuclear on us.

 

Crazy.

 

 

Worldwide will be a different story.

When I say "legendary," I'm not just talking about the number being higher. I'm talking about overall impressiveness and straight up shocking the forums.

 

TDK's Monday was so dramatic that it led people were talk about how Titanic's record was in jeopardy.

 

 

When you start discussing a billion dollars, I think you surpassed the "so dramatic people were talking about Titanic". This is Meryl Streep-level dramatics going on right now.

[BoxOfficeZ]

If this keeps up throughout the whole week, my own predict for 45% drop for second weekend might be too high...

I think you're misunderstanding the direction I'm going with this.

Never gets old.

 

The day Star Wars *potentially* crosses $1 billion, I can't wait to see your post that says... well you get the idea

Anyone wanna hazard an estimate as to what gross it would take for Titanic's first run attendance to fall? I would think like 1.25-1.3b. Redfire?
