I honestly don't think so. If you look at Roger More's chart, I see no real correlation between 7pm shows, and lower weekend totals comparatively. - Inigo May 30, 10:03 11
- also, I can totally see your million ways prediction happening. there's just no buzz. -- nm - the mystifying virtuoso May 30, 10:36 4
  - Agreed. Now let's all laugh at Will. -- nm - Roger More May 30, 10:52 3

      - Now we just all feel bad for you. -- nm - Roger More May 30, 10:54 1
        
        Sympathy is better than mocking. -- nm - Will Hunting May 30, 10:59
- also, this is a tween movie, I think. not a kids' movie. -- nm - the mystifying virtuoso May 30, 10:17 1
  - I think the 7pm start yesterday is an indicator that Disney feels the audience skews younger. - Inigo May 30, 10:21
- I think she's saying it's a big deal in how the movie got to $4.2M in Thursday box office. -- nm - Roger More May 30, 10:06 2
  - right. because you don't even have to stay up late, you know? it's like a thursday opener -- nm - the mystifying virtuoso May 30, 10:09 1
    - IMO, if the audience is there, they'll make as many showtimes on as many screens as they have to. - Inigo May 30, 10:12
- are exhibitors only allowed one show per thursday night? or could it run at 7 and at 915? see? -- nm - the mystifying virtuoso May 30, 10:06
