Wow, that extra 9M on the high end really improves the weekend outlook.

Hey, can anyone remember why I posted this? Doesn’t make any sense to me now somehow.

[baumer]

There was such an upfront demand for Infinity Wars that it's bound to have a bit of a drop this weekend. If it was to make a hundred and fifteen million I'm guessing that would be about a 55% drop which would be absolutely phenomenal. You can't expect it to drop in the 40s. To me that's just not realistic.

[NoLegMan]

I'm expecting 120ish mill, I joined the 145mill group though because it's funny.  

[Mekanos]

I figured 55% drop because something like a 50% drop would be very hard in the summer with a movie like this. The fanbase swarmed to it opening weekend, unlike the Avengers and Black Panther which not only opened big but had a lot of people "discovering" it. Anything above 110M would be pretty solid, 120M and above would be fantastic.

Please please please be under $120m this weekend.

[MovieMan89]

Was expecting 35ish today, so hopefully it’s the high end of rths range.

[The Futurist]

The Deadpool-Celine Dion association is the worst news of the week.

 Domestic cume would shoot past $450M by SUN going past TDKR and saddening Nolanites #Ed and Mr.White (*Not* CJohn).

Here's the thing, it doesn't change one fact : Dark Knight trilogy is much better

Premature don’t ya think? You realize if it hits the high end of rths range today that it could end up with as light as a 48-49% drop right? Sat will be huge just like last week.

Gitesh was providing early numbers, when RTH wasn't even part of this boards wettest dreams, so I don't think he deserves the hate.
