CloneWars Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) It's actually smart for WB to wait this long. Now that it is the middle of the day, past most people lunch's breaks, it means less attention on the numbers from the media. I think that's what WB wants whether the numbers are good or bad.Still though, the wait feels extra long, especially considering we didn't get studio estimates this weekend.

MagnetMan Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Is there really any reason for WB to fudge here? I mean, a low number is not really going to reflect on the quality or reception of the film... especially in light of everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number will be in the 161-162 range but they don't want much attention at this point. They announced noon and they will likely delay it by a couple of hours.

Gopher Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) No pundit is going to 'judge' TDKR's box office this weekend if it came short of their expectations. So I don't know why they're waiting. Edited July 23, 2012 by Gopher 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't know why they're waiting.Exactly. Even people who don't follow BO will recognize there's an aftereffect not related to the actual film.
