If THE HUNGER GAMES reached $400m, why can't BVS?

This thread is crazy to read through for sure. The number means different things to people based on their biases. 

[excel1]

$15m on Monday means Friday should at be in the low $20 millions, which would point to a weekend of at least $70m+.

Haters are now creating fake holidays to have an excuse for the movie performing over expectations, that's hilarious

 

Um, Easter Monday is a real holiday. It might not be celebrated in US but it is a celebration of Jesus appearing to apostles. It is called second Easter day in my country (Finland) and it is a national holiday which is why I originaly asked if it was a celebration in US.

Would that put 400 back in play?

 

I know it will cross half a billion quite soon globally. Tomorrow?

yeah they're panicing. First attempt couldn't take the movie down, they gotta circle back. The critics can't let this movie win.

Affleck thought the lies would bury this film. Clearly he put his heart and soul into this.

Kids didn't go back to school, teachers did though. On the school calendar it's called a Teacher In-Service Work Day. Not sure how widespread that may be though but regular business and government buildings were open. This 'Easter Monday' is nothing I've ever heard of either, must be very localized. 

 

Anecdotal but at least some of the schools around the Peninsula were closed yesterdya.  And Monday traffic was light for a change.

 

As for the drops, numbers don't lie.  Easter Monday is known for good holds.

Spring Break actually ended for schools in OC yesterday. Kids were back in school and college starting yesterday.

[wildphantom]

Even if it had had the best reviews in the world, I never saw it making much more than $400 million anyway. 

I think it'll wind up around $365 million. Just see average legs after a huge opening and nothing very exciting to follow. 

 

Roll on Jungle Book

Feige must be gnashing his teeth in rage. All those payoffs to the critics, for nothing! Curses! And he'd have gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for those meddling DC fanboys!

 

Disney stock will crater today, I'm sure. 

[GiantCALBears]

That's a really good Monday number all things considered.

Can't wait for Easter Tuesday numbers.
