Those are really early Friday numbers

Yeah, it's almost like they're actually Wednesday numbers.

Even those we got them 12 hours earlier than usual LOL. I bet both Moana and FB come in higher. That 13.5m looks frontloaded for Moana if true.

It's not true. It's impossible.

It's probably just easier to have a 5 day weekend thread. Easier to keep track of everything.

IMHO it would be clearer to split them up. The weekend thread will be big enough, to have to read through so many posts discussing e.g. the BO details to find the dailies,... not what I'd call easy.

No problem for me personally, we all know where to look up the details (BOM,...)

Not sure if American kids have school today or not, but I never really trust "Friday" matinees for kids movies, as really what kids leave school to go to the movies? I mean like, elementary school kids and their families.

Some do, some don't. Classes were still going on at my college today but barely anybody was there

We just learned about the Pearl Harbour attack in History (God that movie could have been so much better) and he talked about how much training Japanese pilots went through to be able to bomb the ships.

 

So we did an activity were each of us had an egg and had to sprint across the room attempting to drop our egg right on 1 of a a few pieces of tape.

 

You should watch TORA TORA TORA!

Lots of kids have this entire week off, including Monday.

That $13.5 million will fly up as the night goes on. Deadline underestimating older audiences who will show up in big numbers tonight.

Frozen's opening day was 15.1 million. We'll se how close Moana is to that.

I feel confused about Dory...It was clearly a good movie, no doubts, but it was relatively forgetable in the end while Zootopia really struck me!
