Yes.... Nikki should start thinking about retirement now.

[kayumanggi]

Nikki still takes drugs.

[spizzer]

+23 sellouts in the last hour

[Blankments]

I'm fine with Twilight opening low. There are four fantastic movies that beat expectations over the last few weeks, it's time for one bad movie to go below expectations.

[tracygee]

Isn't it TTS: NM?

No, New Moon has the best domestic total, but BD1 has the best opening weekend.

BD1 - 138NM - 142

[kells]

No, it doesn't. New Moon's OW was $142.8M.

[Fake]

No, New Moon has the best domestic total, but BD1 has the best opening weekend.

Wrong on both accounts.

[cozmeesah]

Lol, any more people want to come in and tell her that?

[CJohn]

All of that is wrong.

Gee.... sorry...

[John Marston]

hope the 40 million Skyfall numbers hold!

[Poseidon]

So even if there are contracts for "Skyfall" keeping some bigger auditoriums, "New Moon" opened against "The Blind side" and had to face the 2nd weekend of "2012".And competition in summer is even bigger, so...And those early numbers are based on matinees and there shouldn't be that many sellouts, so it just means, that there are just not that many visitors in those early showings...

[kells]

I think we're all bored. Any chance to throw real numbers around and we jump at it.If this really is a $65M Friday, are we going to assume this may not be as frontloaded as previous installments? Or is it really going to drop off that much from BD1?

Can't say till we see a Saturday number

If Rth has said 63-65m , I can't see it missing that by more than 2m on either side.

[Noctis]

$60m would be disastrous, but I seriously doubt that's happening. $60m would probably mean an OW of $110m-$120m. Fad? Most probably. Especially if the final film opens the lowest since NM.
