Ariadne Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I've had a look on BOM and from what I can tell, at the end of the first Sunday, New Moon had $132.1m total internationally from 24 countries and Eclipse had $104.6m total internationally from 38 countries.

kayumanggi Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 That's good if it doesn't include Saturday. (LOL, it's already Sunday, 09:20 AM here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 That's good if it doesn't include Saturday. (LOL, it's already Sunday, 09:20 AM here)The number is only up to Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 It is clearly stated in Nikki's report that the numbers are for Wed-Fri.I think the pace is much lower than Eclipse, but the latter was in Summer for most parts of the world, so that was expected. Sat/Sun should tell the tale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poseidon Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) So after reading Shawn's theory about Wednesday openers (in which he says the 4 day is a good indicator of what the film would've made on a conventional 3 day weekend), I'm estimating that Eclipse would've opened to $144.3m. The numbers for Eclipse's fourth day in theaters were deflates, as it was the 3rd of july falling on a saturday. So you should probably add some millions in that calculation.As for it's international opening: it better topped the last films, as it has just Germany's opening left for next weekend.

So you should probably add some millions in that calculation.I'd probably have to do some other sort of calculation. I'm not sure that just adding a few million here and there is going to give a very accurate answer. Looking back at the last time July 4th fell on that Sunday, in 2004, Spidey 2 was the major Wednesday opener, and it didn't decrease on that Saturday. So I don't know, I'll stick with this for now, until someone more knowledgeable than I ever takes a look at this. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/daily/chart/?view=7day&sortdate=2004-07-02&p=.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narniadis Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I feel vindicated in a way that both movies did what I expected them too - on another site I made a comment about HF2 flopping hard and most thought I was insane.... while they lowballed Twilight (again)Great weekend - should be a great Thanksgiving season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctis Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I'll be surprised if it's able to do over $40m. That would mean it stayed relatively flat. I can't see that happening, so a Saturday identical to DH1 will likely happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spizzer Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) Assuming it drops the same as New Moon, it should hit $38 million on Saturday Edited November 20, 2011 by spizzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
