Final numbers:2D - 7443D - 405Total - 1149Can't make the spreadsheet since I don't have a computer.

That seems kind of shitty...

Midnights:2D - 3043D - 127Total - 431Unfortunately I don't have any numbers to compare them too because my computer is already in San Antonio.

No problem..... so 1149 includes midnights?

My screening wasn't even half full. Talked to a few others and they have said the same. I know that's antidotal (AKA: take with grains of salt). But I don't see how Hobbit breaks $100M this weekend.

No that's just business day today.

The level of how personal some folks take box office numbers just always surprises me. I forgot how hilarious it can be to read through these weekend threads until tonight. Its like watching college football rivalries.

We've been seeing a lot of big Saturday bumps this year so maybe The Hobbit will have one.

[Shawn Robbins]

@Iceroll: Even then, if today is under 38-40m, it becomes very hard to reach 100+m.

Applying a 30% bump for 3D, that would translate to 35M (Friday w/o Midnights) on a national scale and 48M overall (Rth's high end).

That bodes well actually. Projects to 35M for the rest-of-Friday.

That would be a crazy upset if Skyfall outopened this, though (in 2D no less!).

Good lord numbers are all over the place it seems. Tomorrow estimates will be interesting. I'm more interesting in the OS numbers though.

[Shawn Robbins]

based on what I'm seeing around here, my money is on Rth right now.

That would make me smile. I freaking love that movie.

Totally. Even if legs come, it just goes to show impressive Skyfall has been by potentially outgrossing Twlight and out-opening Hobbit. Sorry for the typos, on mobile...

You should see me on Oscar night when things go really wrong.

$47m?

Wasn't his range 38-42 million? Where did the 47, and 48 million I've been seeing come from?

[Shawn Robbins]

$47m?

Wait, he said 47? Thought it was 38-42.

[John Marston]

yessir that is what he said

It is 38-42..... 47 absolute high, 35 absolute low I think.
