Fake Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 For the weekend:Texas- 10.2-7.1-3.2 = 20.5DU - 6.2-8.7-5.1 = 20.0TH1- 5.2-7.5-4.3 = 17.0LM - 5.0-7.3-4.2 = 16.5So DU can still win the weekend if Texas has bigger drop and DU has bigger jump on Saturday.

fishstick Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 That's shocking. Never would've expected 10m for Texas Chainsaw. Kinda sucky for holdovers. Lol, no? TCM nose-dive is going to be impressive today. It`s a rush factor movie. All kids who wanted to see it saw it yesterday, most likely gave it a rating between C- and F. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I don't see any problems with WOM, in fact it showed better holds than expected. But of course drops will be steeper from now on, it's losing IMAX screens and 3D share will be lower, but it still should do more than the SH1-multiplier. There's a part of Tolkien fandom that seems to watch these films again and again, leading to exceptional "late" legs, and they will keep H1 in theaters throughout February.Better holds than expected? Its doing IAL numbers now even though it opened bigger. Holds have been average, nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wadey Wilsoney Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 So Turner Classic Movies will make more in one weekend than Dredd did on its entire run? I hope every person who comes out of that theater feels violated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) Heh, i feared $20m would not happen for Hobbit. That friday increase is even worse than i expected, though. Edited January 5, 2013 by Elessar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 hobbit should have a good saturday increase but NFL playoffs could impact saturday increases/sunday drops. It will probably finish between 300 and FOTR as expected after its OW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Oscar buzz really helped FOTR (less so TTT and Shriekapoo) because it was the first in the series and sceptics where intrigued by the buzz saying it was phenomenal movie, one of the year`s best. Oscar helps in those cases, when something isn`t expected to be that good but it is. Moreover, FOTR wasn`t just "lucky-to-be-nominated blockbuster spot without relevancy". It was the runner-up in the Oscar race so it was getting tons of coverage. TTT and Shriekapoo were more business as usual in that department once FOTR broke the ice but media spotlight kept them in public memory so legs extended.

John Marston Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Sucky Friday number for Hobbit. Hope it has a good Saturday. All I care now is 300m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Heh, i feared $20m would not happen for Hobbit. That friday increase is even worse than i expected, though.Yeah..... I was expecting 5.5/18m after last weekend.... with strong holidays I thought it could go higher.... but I suspected that weekdays might just be more in holiday mode than 2007. That's why I was expecting smaller jumps than 2007. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 With a 10 mill Friday TCM will do 23 mill this weekend and that is a pretty damn good opening for it. That means it will do minimum 45 to 50mill. and even tho i didnt like it much im glad to see it open that well. Maybe well get anothr F13th based on the strength of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We like Lord .of the Rings way too much hereMust be we aren`t as diverse as big cities make us believe. Books are racist no spin about it. They glorify white supremacy and Tolkien was born in South Africa so yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
