It just proves what I told you about Good Friday in West Texas. Might as well have been a national holiday around here yesterday. 

 

In most of Texas really, I'm in the South area, yesterday was crowded as fuck, everywhere, traffic was horrible. Compare to that, today is like deserted land lol.

Considering I love both Man of Steel and Batman VS Superman, I need to see Snyder's other films for sure.

As Ethan was mentioning earlier, the one about the Owls is actually pretty good.

I guess you're right, il do a parking lot comparison tonight too.

Obviously the GA interest is there.  And it's huge.   The small town in SC I saw this in usually has about 20-30 people in a theater on a Saturday at noon.  There was easily 150.

Tonight? Matinees are where the holiday effect happens. Based on what you said about workers in New York, the matinees should be stronger today in your neck of the woods. Should help offset the Bible Belt drops.

Good OD. Over IM3 OW seems likely?

 

Well.....maybe.

I have to say after all this, that Snyder is one hell of trailer maestro. Remember that 300 trailer set to that Nine Inch Nail's "Just Like You Imagined", the melancholic slo-mo of Watchmen trailer set to that Smashing Pumpkin song, one of the best doom-gloom trailers ever made, and of course those 2 amazing MoS teasers, each with voiceovers by Russell Crowe & Kevin Costner setting up MoS to be a movie about a child guided by 2 fathers -- too bad it devolves into smash-n-bash replay of Matrix Revolution. I think Snyder & co missed another chance to tell another great story about Bruce Wayne vs Clark Kent conflict: rich playboy vs  farm-boy journalist, fascist vs libertarian, absolutist vs idealist etc rather than an overstuffed Justice League primer.

Very likely, though final gross depends on legs of course.

Either way, BvS proves another crazy new thing in 2016: March is the new April, and before with Deadpool: February is the new May.

If Hollywood could do the same thing with September, October & January ($100M ++ opening), there may be one year in the future when it is summer all year around.

March has always been a been big month. 300, The Hunger Games, Alice in Wonderland.

Went into the Justice League thread....

How is it very likely when it's estimated that it's going to make $168M? That would put it below IM3.

No worries, theaters don't have parking lots here anyway.

Depends on how it holds on Saturday. That number is just currently an estimate at this point.

I'm not seeing any sell-outs today where we went last night but that's the same for every movie (Greek Wedding, Zootopia, Deadpool, Eye in the Sky, and Hello My Name is Doris all had sell-outs yesterday as well).

Let it be November 2016!!!

Guys, if you start discussing character motivations in the movie, you need to take that to the Spoiler Thread (or the review thread). I've had to go back and edit a few posts for spoilers.

Today's number is way more fascinating than OD, getting us a lot closer to narrowing the range. We all know it's dropping a decent amount but how much? My guess for OW is right below $170m.
