Weekend#s BD2 $43.1M/$227M, Skyfall 36/221.7, Linc 25/62.2, Rise 24/32.6, Pi 22/30.2, Ralph 16.8/1

[Gopher]

I don't think we will get a clear picture of where they will land for another few weeks. Key factor is if Skyfall hangs onto enough screens over Christmas. Both will get very close to 300.

[RichWS]

Skyfall's running on that wonderful combination of no competition and great word of mouth.

[riczhang]

If BD1/New Moon and Quantum/Casino comparisons are any indication, Skyfall will outgross outgross BD2 today. BD2: 8.06m (-37%)Skyfall: 8.33m (12%)

That's like a dream come true.

Lincoln is still doing great. Seems likely to stay flat/increase from last weekend.

Red Dawn will probably be quite frontloaded but I can't deny it had a good opening day.

Ralph seems mostly unaffected by Guardians. Following Megamind's daily holds it'll do 17-18m for the 3-day and break 150m by Sunday.

Really great Thanksgiving. Even Pi isn't doing terribly.

[Poseidon]

Skyfall could do 50m over the holiday weekend. That's amazing.

SLP looking strong. Over 11,000 PTA for 3 day using boxoffice.com's numbers!

It's decent. It's not wide yet so the number's nothing special.

[Jack Nevada]

I'm seeing a 40M total for Silver Linings

[Gopher]

Descendants did 18k 3-day last year in the same number of theaters. SLP's number is fine but not anything special.

[Jake Gittes]

SLP is basically The Descendants-lite in terms of box-office right now, and considering that film ended up with $82m, I'd say over $50m is not inconceivable for SLP - all it would really need is a BP nom and a subsequent theater count expansion. Too early to say for certain, though.

[kitik]

From what I've seen he's not really very good when he's not playing a thunder god...

I thought he was great in Star Trek and Cabin In The Woods.In fact, I thought most folks said he stole the show in Star Trek.

What did he play in Star Trek?

[cozmeesah]

Kirk's father.

[CJohn]

What did he play in Star Trek?

Chris Pine's dad. He is just in 10 minutes of it or so.

[fishstick]

What did he play in Star Trek?

george kirk, Jim`s father. He was great, brought so much emotion into the opening of the movie. I spotted him right away and wondered who he was. So happy he`s big now.

Yep, and then I found out that he was the guy playing Thor, and I knew it was yet another superb casting choice in a Marvel movie. Edited November 22, 2012 by kitik

Skyfall $1b?

Isn't 950M - 1B more realistic?

$1b is a lock now. $690 - $710 foreign, $285 - $305 domestic. $975 - $1b+ and then China to come. Could be anything up to $100m from China but it definitely won't be less than $40. Guestimating $1.04b to $1.06b overall. Still has a shot at $1.1b Edited November 22, 2012 by achooo
