DHD Friday (03.23) 68.25 M | THE HUNGER GAMES (Crow-serving on-going :))

[fmpro]

What Sunday drop can we expect ? 40% ?

Minus midnights with a 5-10% drop IMO

[iceroll]

I hope it beats New Moon! The first Hunger Games beating the best performing Twilight movie at the first outing would be amazing

[Totem]

66M and 46m Friday minus Midnights. Not expecting an increase on Sat, maybe around 44m and a 30m Sunday. 140m Weekend, absolutely ridiculous.

Lionsgate has never had so much money to count, probably why they are taking so long to release something legit.

Money tank could be filled with these 3 movies..

I see the same thing

[iceroll]

I think a Saturday increase would be completely logical. The core demographic will be out of school and adults will be off work. The strong midnight : OD ratio shows that this movie is not too frontloaded. It's better than all the most recent Harry Potters and Twilight movies and on par with TDK which opened in the summer.

I want this to hit 150M SO MUCH !!

[kayumanggi]

I hope it's 145 M+

Its frontloaded.. So i doubt it..But flat is still fantastic

[A Marvel Fanboy]

And Saturday has to increase for 150m.

I hope it's 145 M+

What does IBALL say??

[fmpro]

And Saturday has to increase for 150m.

Yes.. to around 50 mill

[spizzer]

Yeah, 50M Saturday is possible, increase even more probable. From there, Sunday drop won't be all that large due to spillover. Also, we saw TF2 increase once West Coast numbers came in in the morning, so don't rule that out either (though that almost never happens). For that matter, this could also go down from that 66M estimate.

Agreed. Unbelievable how this was more attended during the day than Potter was.

[moeSlow]

increase is very possible... the tweens will be in full force 2maro.

I think the best comparion is TDK ? Midnight of THG is 1M ahead of TDK while the rest of Fri. short of 1M.http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=darkknight.htm
