filmnerdjamie Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) And yet not too good either.But ya know... kids are still in school. Or else it would have been bigger. Edited December 18, 2012 by filmnerdjamie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenedictL11 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Very excellent for Lincoln. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Very similar drop for TH than for I am legend (-59%). This can be a good reference given it was released exactly the same date, December 14th, Friday too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I predicted $7.5m, so it held a touch better than I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) Very excellent for Lincoln. I don`t know why this movie isn`t on more Boxoffice Story of the Year lists that always have TA,THG, Ted and Skyfall. Those are stories but so is Linc. It`s become a bone fide blockbuster. Everything goes up today anyway. BUT HOBBIT MUST BOMB! BOMB! BOMB! BOMB! Edited December 18, 2012 by fishnets 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can be a good reference given it was released exactly the same date, December 14th, Friday tooIf it follows IAL's multiplier, it will make $280m. If that happens, the meltdown on here will be crazy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sparrow Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 That's actually great for Hobbit. I thought it will have a lower Monday about $7.4m because of the obvious frontloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Based off a 7.7, it is heading to about a 50% drop this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htall90 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 It's all relative Lincoln may not have one of the biggest openings or biggest box office total for the year but relative to genre and pre release expectation it is one of the best runs of the year 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Isn't 39M a bit low, aren't we looking at 40M+ upwards of up to 50M for the wknd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens, the meltdown on here will be crazy.I`d love to see that because that would make my TH Under BD2 prediction come true. I`d love Twihards to beat Ringers because arrogant Ringers were always fighting with Star wars fans and HP fans and didn`t think Twi would ever threaten Th`s BO. Now that twist would be amazing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sparrow Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 So it held 2% better than you thought, and that is considered "much better?" Its weekdays 2% difference is also big IMO ;)Anyways it is great for me because its better than I thought but given IAL's hold it could have done a little better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 No, I think 50% is about right, unless it ends up being more of a weekend movie. We don't really know that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
