$120.5 (57 + 63.5) Friday

$64 million Sunday

$254.5 weekend total.

What, you increased your Saturday and Sunday numbers by 45% since that is what you were off on Thurs/Fri? - Spawn Dec 19, 09:21 4
- Not sure what you mean. That whole prediction is wildly low. -- (edited) - Inigo Dec 19, 09:27 3
  - All I am saying is that your post makes it sound like you brought in some sort of other logic or something when all you did was increase your original - Spawn Dec 19, 10:05 2
    - Well, yes. Same logic, just based on the real estimate. -- nm - Inigo Dec 19, 10:09 1
      - Lets see. - Spawn Dec 19, 11:05
I disagree with the Saturday expansion and I'm actually talking on the phone with Kim and David about this right now. -- nm - Tim Dec 19, 09:15 11

    - That's a valid point -- nm - iSpam Dec 19, 10:06 3
      - If we are going there we should also note running times. 2:15 takes a chunk. -- nm - Spawn Dec 19, 10:07 2

        Agreed, to a point. There were theaters running it on *all* screens and sold out Thrusday/Friday. If running time had been, say, 100 minutes they... - Spawn Dec 19, 10:21
    - I wouldn't have expected that one to be the post that pushed you over the edge. -- nm - David Dec 19, 09:52 1
      - ? -- nm - Reagen Dec 19, 09:54
  - School were out here (in this part of TX at least). Not sure how common that is. -- nm - ty97 Dec 19, 09:47
- Mecklenberg County is still out! -- nm - jar jar trump Dec 19, 09:29
- The ability is there. Jurassic World did it. The prequels that opened on Thursday did. - Inigo Dec 19, 09:20
