I dont see a 164% increase. most likely 150% increase

[Krissykins]

Yeh it increased 134% last Friday so 165% seems like a bit of leap.

[Krissykins]

Especially with two new movies.

With 135% increase you get 58,9m.

[Olive]

most likely this weekend will be 55-60m

[BiffMan]

Very nice. So $400m on Thursday instead of Friday. 4 days ahead of TDK, then crushing the $450m record on Sunday.Wonder what movie has a shot of topping those marks outside of TA2 or Avatar 2?

TDKR should challenge them in less 2 months

[tawasal]

Yep this weekend for me is looking like 55m-60m, that 70m predictions made are lookin' unlikely. It has to increase well above 135% it had last week and be in the 200%+ increase section.

[ZattMurdock]

Hoping for MIGHTIEST weekend numbers.

[BiffMan]

TDKR should challenge them in less 2 months

Will be interesting to see. I'm thinking TDKR is going to be a bit more front loaded and slow down more quickly. It'll absolutely hit $400m & $450m, but in 14 and 17 days? That's going to be tough.

[tawasal]

68m might stay on as the biggest 3rd weekend gross and 50m+ for 4th weekend is out of reach.

[Han Cobb]

Nice number for TA. Would love to see a 60m weekend.
