[Jake Gittes]

Mostly great numbers, especially compared to 2007. I didn't have much hope for TH to be over 185 by now, but at this point if it manages $35m this weekend and $20m next weekend, its $300m chances will be close to 100%. All it needs right now is a $12-13m Friday - looking at the same Friday in 2007, NT2 increased 16% from Thursday, Alvin 8% (and that was the lowest increase in Top 15) and IAL 25%, so going by those increases, TH should be good for $11.5m Friday and $33m weekend at the very least. That is unless things have changed and movies in 2012 are going to behave differently (and worse) than movies on the same days in 2007.Django held quite well especially compared to Les Mis.

[UptoLight]

the real story of the season is LINCOLN.

[DeeCee]

Very good for TH. it's looking like a very tight weekend.

[Filmovie]

GREAT numbers for TH! 300 mln back on the way!As expected, Django is holding better than LM.Lincoln has 150 mln in his pocket, if it wins for Best Picture even more

Great for Hobbit, it's much better than NT2 and I am Legend (they had about a 15% drop), and even better drop than Fellowship did on the same date (9% on 12/27/01).

[kayumanggi]

Watch movies guys!

[Elessar]

Rather soon for estimates. I wonder how accurate they will be...

[kayumanggi]

I wonder if LINCOLN could crawl to 200 M.

[ChD]

I wonder if LINCOLN could crawl to 200 M.

I don't think it has a chance. 175M is it's limit.

[kayumanggi]

Still a great number. What a phenomenal run.

[DAR]

Is Lincoln DDL first 100 million dollar film?

Seems so.

One word. Imax.

[Jack Sparrow]

Great numbers overall. TH will win this weekend.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Linc will do 200M.

[fishstick]

Django held quite well especially compared to Les Mis.

Mizheads have already seem LM and LM is also playing in less theaters. But Django is a better movie so it looks like WOM is really kicking in.

[baumer]

Linc will do 200M.

I don't see how. It would have to get a huge boost from Oscars. But it's already fading and once the holidays are over, the weekdays will be too small to make a run at 200.

[fishstick]

Great numbers overall. TH will win this weekend.

For sure. LM hasn`t got bigger TC and Django is rated R.

Fish, what did you think of Hobbit?
