In response to "Kilbo, actuals are in." by David

so a good $15M below what you thought it was going to do?

do you still think it's very frontloaded too ?

A good $9M below what I thought too. Stupid sexy blue wang. -- nm - Qale Mar 9, 12:45
Yup, I was thinking it would do $70M. As I was saying in MMQB earlier, I think $120 million of final box office, possibly even less. -- nm - David Mar 9, 12:40 1

Weirdly, I'd say a $55M opening weekend points to higher front-loading than a $70M OW would - Alan More Mar 9, 12:40 5
- I think that the "core" following for this film all turned up for opening weekend and that their numbers contributed 5 million at best to the weekend - Loyola Mar 9, 12:42 2
  - There were only a core of 750k viewers for this? C'mon, that's a ton low. - Will Hunting Mar 9, 12:46 1
    - I've never heard of the Watchmen before this, did they have a show/cartoon/comic book before this? -- nm - Loyola Mar 9, 12:49
- I get what you're saying, but $35M-$45M is the range for comic book-core movies. Watchmen broke out beyond that a bit. -- nm - David Mar 9, 12:41 1
  - sure. poor phrasing on my part. -- nm - Alan More Mar 9, 12:42
