Weekend Actuals page 66 TA: 55.6m BS: 25.5m ; SW EP1 $293!

[John Harris]

TA second-biggest 3rd weekend ever, by a wide margin:

1. Avatar:$68,490,688

2. The Avengers: $55,644,102

3. Spider-Man: $45,036,912

I guess Avatar's 4th weekend record ($50.3 mil) is safe, unless Avengers has an unprecedented boost on Memorial Day weekend.

[Krissykins]

Budget is $220m No?

[fmpro]

It was to avoid asshole behaviors like yours that I didn't want to post it. :)Rth had a hunch, I've got excited and share it with some people on the boards, not you, but some. Yesterday and today. It didn't happen. Boo-hoo. It's still $450m in 17 days.

457+ actully

[ecstasy]

Adjusted for inflation and 3D:

1. Spider-Man: $61.4m

2. Avatar:$59.3m

3. The Avengers: $48.4m

Just saying....

[MasterDodsen]

Bravo for Avengers. Should be around 42M for the Memorial Weekend.

[fmpro]

LMAO^^

Hate to crap on Dark Shadows some more, but it seems like it's the only movie that dropped from estimates- $12,583,338 DARK SHADOWS (-58 %) Dictator actually stayed flat from estimates despite a small projected -25% Sunday drop.

[tawasal]

Did jack ever reveal his secret?

Who is that Jack?

Spidey rules, Avatar drools!

Spider-Man is the only movie I've seen at the theater more times (7) than Avengers (5, tied with Die Hard on my personal list), so I'm fine with that adjusted ranking!

Rth expected a raise in Friday and Saturday estimates, from a PM answering some questions I've sent his way last night. It didn't happen, BO.com isn't noticing an increase in the numbers of Friday or Saturday, I didn't want to reveal it because it could generate expectation it'd happen, but oh well. I'm taking the little increase gladly.

So you thought it would increase? That's it? That's pretty stupid. Either it would go up, go down, or stay the same. Why did it need to be "revealed"?

[doctoru2]

In other words, you had nothing.

That's because he was using some silly "golden horn". He should have used a magic conch shell.

My shell tells me to "do nothing - the numbers will come".

I didn't want to get anyone's hopes up. I've always said it was a tiny tidbit, and it was indeed, a friday increase from the actuals that never happened. Rth is one of the most reliable sources around here, it didn't came to pass and now you're shitting on me for it. It's all good. I can take it.

[seduh]

great! i hope for $40 on it's forth weekend but $35 seems more likely

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

Alright guys, time to let Jack's supposed revelation go. If you didn't realize what he was doing at the time then you're really only making yourself look bad by being mad at him. Otherwise, the ones who knew he had "nothing" should know better than to act like he was leading them on. Regardless of how you took what he said, it's time to let it go. It's truly a non-event and should stay that way.

So it looks like the Avengers total wkend and wdays #s are tracking pretty closely to the average of the week-on-week drops of IM,IM2,X2,SM&SM3 ever since the end of last weekend.

Day - ProjectionFromMarvelMayAvg - Actual

Mon - 8,466,752 - 7,923,789

Tue - 7,954,736 - 8,477,854

Wed - 6,506,971 - 6,339,757

Thurs - 5,923,169 - 6,208,368

Wkdays - 28,851,627 - 28,949,768

Day - ProjectionFromMarvelMayAvg - Actual

Fri - $14,903,994 - $15,236,046

Sat - $23,426,413 - $23,587,069

Sun - $17,317,013 - $16,820,987

Wkend - $55,647,420 - $55,644,102

I was hoping this weekend would improve 3.35% over the projection (i.e. to 57.5M total wkend) , as the last wkend made $103,052,274 after i projected it to make $99,707,157.
