That original Skyfall jump did seem a bit high. Still fantastic.

True, 300M is going to be touch and go for Skyfall now.

[forg]

Impressed with Lincoln and Life of Pi's performance. I hope both can reach 100 million. Argo is close to that mark

[A Marvel Fanboy]

So low end for Skyfall.

[lab276]

Still will be over $200m for the 3-day overall.

[Olive]

$9.981 million for LINCOLN

$6.76 million for WRECK-IT RALPH

[BK007]

RTH overestimated everything so far.Not even low end for BD, Lincoln, Ralph and Life of Pi. Only Red Dawn beat his average.So, like I said, pretty standard. Always revisions downwards.If we're talking about Finke, she was close with her final estimates on most except BD overestimated by $0.7m

HOLY GOD, WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS SO NEGATIVE?

[BK007]

HOLY GOD, WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS SO NEGATIVE?

Is it positive that everything was overestimated? No, just pointing out facts.If it happens all the time, maybe they should be more conservative.

[RichWS]

They're estimates. Sometimes they go up, sometimes they go down.

This forum has a lot of overtly serious people

Comments like these are why I keep telling Rth not to report so early. He never came back so, of course, some are saying he was "wrong". His earlier numbers are guesstimates, it's the numbers he puts out after 1-2 AM PST that are the accurate ones.

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH!! THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER. LIFE OR DEATH!!

ESTIMATES! REVISIONS! DAMN YOU NIKKI FINKE! AHHHHHHH!

I want him to give us as many reports as possible. 1 ridiculous comment shouldn't have negative consequences for rest of us.

[Jack Nevada]

This forum should be renamed Box Office and Aspies Forum.

I don't follow his updates or timings closely since I'm not even in the same timezone.I just comment if I happen to see them before estimates are out.So, if you have, then you're right. I was just making a very clear point.Sure, it may be more negative, but then, why are people here so fond of patting ridiculous on the back?No doubt Skyfall has a fighting chance for $300m now, but I'm sure there were locks for $50m+ second weekend and etc. Everyone seems well chuffed to ignore those and act as if backpedalling is something to be proud of.

[BK007]

There really seems to be a culture of herd mentality here.From what movies people are allowed to like, diss and so on.If you don't follow the status quo, you get attacked.

[Justin121]

Rth's numbers are GREAT and they are ESTIMATES if all data isn't yet available. His numbers are often spot on but when he has incomplete data he has to use trends to guess and put these numbers together for US for FREE. He has no reason to even help but he takes time out of his life to provide this forum with numbers, that by the way are always better than other sources posted at the same time. Anyways, Rth, thanks for all you do.
