Neo Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 With a DHI>DHII increase is the record in sight. The thing is that it didn't have a jump from Eclipse where DHI had one from HBP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

75Live Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 The 30+ for Eclipse was never elaborated on. I think the 30.25 for BD is just so it can be number two of all time. Really, it doesn't matter. This is a gigantic number and it has no IMAX. That is pretty freaking insane.Yeah no 3D or IMAX and it still gets a huge number. I have to agree it is pretty impressive.

Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted November 18, 2011 Founder / Operator Share Posted November 18, 2011 I still think it will land around $127-130 million, but so far its at least proving the hardcore fan base is as reliable as usual upfront. Let's see where the weekend goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kells Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Yes, really impressive number without IMAX and for a fall opening. I wouldn't be surprised if Summit fudged the number to get it over Eclipse, but either way, it's off to a good start considering it's almost a year and a half since the last film.

tawasal Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Why? Was it over most predicts.Yes, most people were expecting it to make under 25m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 The theatre I am tracking has it at 5 evening sellouts and they have already upped the number of shows from 33 to 35. I think it has a good shot at New Moon's 142.5 million number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75Live Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Why? Was it over most predicts.Yeah in the Twilight o/u $300 thread, a bunch of people had it $25 or under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see where the weekend goes.Just out of curiosity, if the midnight number is the biggest yet, why would it fall below NM? I think it will do between 140-150. I'm just not sure why it would fall below 135? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
