“A great start for the film.” The film is playing on 3,025 screens this weekend and is looking like “a really really good” $11M to $15M today according to rival studios."

So 25M-40M weekend. Seems legit

 

Jurassic Park will do about 7M today, according to that. Amazing, IMO.

 

 

"#1 Evil Dead, #2 Jurassic Park 3D, #3 Paramount’s G.I. Joe: Retaliation, #4 DreamWorks Animation’s The Croods (which crossed $100M in 13 days this week and has an international cume of $171M from 59 markets going into Friday), and #5 a tie between Tyler Perry’s Temptation and FilmDistrict’s Olympus Has Fallen."

Is there a way to change the title name?  I meant to put 15-18 for JP, the 17M was just a prediction.Either way, that's a fantastic result for Evil Dead.

I love the line "like a really really good 11-15 million." Apparently Derek Zoolander writes for Deadline

And that JP number proves why these 3D re-releases keep happening.

[Jandrew]

The title needs to be changed. People are going to think ED did $30M on Friday.

[Krissykins]

Fantastic for Evil Dead.

 

Even though it's bizarre for them to base these "numbers" from morning showings.

 

They seem like guesses to me.

 

It would be brilliant if Evil Dead had a first Friday over $10m.

[Heretic]

WOW! That's brilliant for The Evil Dead. It looks absolutely insane in a good way, so i'm glad it's doing gangbusters.

Evil Dead has made more on it's OW...then the original trilogy COMBINED WHEN ADJUSTED.

Of course that means nothing considering how little they did...

[Jack Nevada]

Well shit Evil Dead is doing better than I expected

[Heretic]

That would also be a HUGE success for Jurassic Park. I hope to catch it on the big screen some time as I wasn't even on the planet when it came out!

Amazing number if it holds but I'm just here to recognize the most incredibly narcissistic advertisement on the entire internet. I LOVE IT!

 

[Kevin Bacon]

It's bizarrely early but I'll take it.

The OW for Evil Dead guarantees a sequel even before its released in other territories. Sony and FilmDistrict will be happy with these numbers especially with how little it cost to make.

And that JP number proves why these 3D re-releases keep happening.

And I still don't get why they have to release them in 3D. Re-release some classics as they were meant to and you save on conversion and will make audiences just as happy.

Damn Nikki coming with that Pow Pow

They do well OS.

Good early estimate for JP. I still want it to get to 17-18OW to keep 40 in reach.

43M-that is better as it would be at 400M

I'm definitely seeing Jurassic Park 3D as soon as it lands here. I so want to see it on the big screen, even if by means of crappy converted 3D
