this is a really strong number that early... hope it can grow to 66 - 67M

but i'll be happy with $ 63.5M, could pass $ 155M with this

C’mon, what is with Deadline and reasonable estimates this weekend. This is not how it’s supposed to go 😕    

 

Anyway higher would be nice but a 43M pure Friday is nothing to scoff at.

Gonna watch Fifth Element in honor of Luke Perry today!

After that Airwolf or ... ?

You gotta hand it to Marvel. Only they could produce a movie as generic and flat-looking as CM, and have it make 150M on opening weekend.
