DAR Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Isn't spring break pretty much over for the majority of folks?Maybe college kids, but I would imagine the K-12 schools are spread out. Here in Milwaukee spring break doesn't occur until after Easter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Since when though?I had discount Tuesday in 2010. Don't think I was the only one.Yes discount Tuesday was there in 2010 but its effect was pretty minimal.Nowadays it has very big effect. For example, 'John Carter' jumped 10.5% on its first Tuesday.

rockNrollaDIM Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Yeah very true. The kid I tutor is on vacation from Wednesday 4/11 and then the entire week after that until 4/23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Shorts Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Discount Tuesdays are much more popular today.Discount Tuesday begin to factor in starting the 2nd week, especially after a 150m+ opening, I'm assuming increases in weekday numbers the first week is rare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Realistic people know it will not hit 400, maybe not even 300. How in the hell could it miss 300m? You mean 350m? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Shorts Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Realistic people know it will not hit 400, maybe not even 300.I think 300 is a lock at this point. April is pretty weak except maybe for Titanic 3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I don't think 400m was ever on the table.Agree. My post was aimed at those who still believe somehow that it will get 3x multiplier and reach 450M. If I had said that even 375M is now in jeopardy, they would have jumped at my throat.

rockNrollaDIM Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'd like to see it beat DH2. It's a tall order though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 it's a decent number. Also, nice for 21 Jump Street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither DHII, TDK, or Spider-Man 3 saw increases during the first week of weekdays and two of those movies opened in the middle of July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fake Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 My projections (I am being a bit kind here)Wednesday: 7.6M (-25%)Thursday: 7.2M (-5%)Friday: 17M (+135%)Saturday: 24.5M (+45%)Sunday: 17.6M (-28%)2nd weekend: 59M ($247.4M cume) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 THG opened so massively that it will erode over the week. Nothing alarming about it, it's just the way it is. I just think and always have thought that this will end up with a 2.3-2.5 multiplier. Again, nothing wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping for at least a 150% jump Friday, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiccup Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 400M isn't happening just saying that. 375M is the max this will go imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Shorts Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Is a 150% increase Friday unrealistic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 25% decrease today? Hope it's around 15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 And did anyone really expect an increase today?I think the highest expectation I saw was from BJ who thought it would stay flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
