Hilarious.

[Hiccup]

Great number for Brave and Avengers. Solid hold for Ice Age 4

[Fake]

Was hoping for more for Avengers..... but still an okay number.

[CJohn]

Urban Dictionary update: "Man, that film is totally gonna OOGIELOVE this weekend."

[baumer]

Was hoping for more for Avengers..... but still an okay number.

I'm very disappointed in 620 mill. I was hoping for 620.5.

[CJohn]

Lionsgate's THE POSSESSION is the #1 film in America w/ $17.7M.

[baumer]

Boxoffice ‏@BoxofficeOfficial domestic 4-day estimate: $21.3 million for THE POSSESSION from 2,816 locations. Location avg. = $6,294.

[Jack Nevada]

Next weekend is going to be heinously anus

[Gopher]

Looks like Possession will comfortably take next weekend with ~7-8m. Yikes.

[vc2002]

I remember some TA fans said if Disney expand TA's release with an extended version, it could bring enough fuel (sth like 20 or even 30m) to beat Titanic 3D. We had a little agrument on that. Now I think this wknd just shows how impossible that is (even it's not an extended version).

YAY! It worked.

[Jack Nevada]

When was the last time we had a weekend as weak as next week?

Despite expansion & RNC, 2016Obama fizzling out, drops to #9 w/ avg below $3k. Still, $18.3M cume is impressive.
