Early Friday Numbers (The Lorax - 17.5M; Project X - 8.2M)

[tawasal]

The Lorax could potentially score 60 mil OW, WOW!

In 2009 Monster vs ALiens almost with the same OD made 59m OW. So TL could still make 60m.

I guess night shows has helped PROJECT X a lot.

Looks like it.

[tawasal]

Sounds about right.. Looks like 22-23 mill will happen.Great weekend again

Yeah it is great weekend and I believe this March will kick 2010's March monthly gross.

Go Lorax... box office really is phenomenal this year.

[ecstasy]

1M difference.

from the earlier THR estimate?

[snitch]

And the scary thing is that Lorax will have a whole month for itself. The next animated movie is Pirates in early April i believe.

Agree.. HG will help with that...

[tawasal]

April 2011 will be tough to beat.

No, from ERC and Guru.

I need some food... some shit fast food.. somebody help me

[tawasal]

HG should easily go past 70m.

[ecstasy]

I think the great thing is that Lorax didn't affect Journey 2's legs at all. Its #4 with an estimated 6.2 for the weekend. Bringing it to 85mWill 100m happen?

I can help you with that. Just shit on the floor and eat it fast. That way you have 'shit fast food'.

Thats over 50%. I think it did affect it's legs.

[ecstasy]

No, from ERC and Guru.

I thought ERC had it 17.5 and Guru 17.4. Unless, my math skills fail me that's not 1 mil. That's 100k

[ecstasy]

Thats over 50%. I think it did affect it's legs.

Ah ok. I wasn't looking at the percentage just that it's #4 above Safehouse and Good Deeds.
