Saw Skyfall today and thought it was tremendous. Deserves every penny it will get.

Guardians has been following Arthur Christmas's daily holds almost to a tee.http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=arthurchristmas.htmIf it follows Arthur's dailies for the rest of its run, it'll reach 92.2m. Since its theater losses won't be as drastic as Arthur's were, it could squeak by 100... under a 40% drop next weekend would be a start.

[Shawn Robbins]

This may be my favorite box office weekend of 2012.

If only ROTG broke out, this would be a perfect Holiday weekend! Nevertheless, love seeing those numbers

[BK007]

Finding Nemo 3D is back on the charts with a $100k weekend.Saw the same thing with Brave earlier this year, went missing for 2-3 weekends before resurfacing.Shawn, any idea why this happened/happens? Are Disney fudging, or making up for fudging?The total between the last recorded and now is only the difference it has made this weekend.

That's not the only one, Brave and Cars 2 also have some missing weeks. Maybe some others that I haven't noticed.

If Skyfall follows CR from Sunday onwards it will finish with 303M.If Skyfall follows QoS from Sunday onwards it will finish with 277M.300M is still very much possible. A 50% drop next week and 300m is done. A 55% drop and it won't happen.

If BD2 follows NM from Sunday onwards it will finish with 296M.If BD2 follows BD1 from Sunday onwards it will finish with 291M.300M isn't impossible yet. Being better than both NM and BD1 (going by reviews), it could get better legs plus it might have some extra repeat viewings.

[Fake]

Life of Pi and Lincoln look set for some amazing runs. 100m and 150m respectively shouldn't be a problem. 150m and 200m respectively are the targets.

Disney does tend to stop tracking their films after a certain point, especially on weekdays but sometimes on weekends as well. They (nor any other studio) never directly address why a movie pops back up like this, but just looking back at the patterns it seems like its only due to the increase in business over the holiday.

[forg]

Brave disappeared on the charts when Finding Nemo 3D was on but when Nemo 3D lost a lot of theaters, Brave came back.

[TylerDurden365]

Both Brave and Nemo 3D recently popped up at the dollar theater near where I live. Would make sense that Disney had to start tracking them again since they had a fresh set of theaters.
