Thanks. Very good number For EOD three weeks out, but I never doubted a 30M+opening and Legion is tracking alot better than I expected. {nm} wrongturn687 Jan 03, 13:48

saw EOD last may, that flick doesnt deserve 30m open. {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 03, 16:03

Test screening? How finished was it last May? {nm} secretstalker Jan 03, 17:32

yeah screening exchange. mel was using a horrible Bahston accent, and there was another "element" (that i wont mention because of spoiler) adrenalin112 Jan 03, 17:54

I find that "number" hard to believe for Tooth Fairy, especially compare to Edge of Darkness and Spy Next Door {nm} secretstalker Jan 03, 13:52

I agree. Remember how badly Mall Cop was tracking, but still opened big ? I still expect it to open atleast in the low 20's. {nm} wrongturn687 Jan 03, 13:56

Yeah, Mall Cop is a good example. {nm} secretstalker Jan 03, 14:05

Yep, but I'm also comparing quality because both of them look like complete CRAP!. {nm} wrongturn687 Jan 03, 14:12

One difference is that Tooth Fairy is Fox rather than Sony or Disney who tend to do better marketing crap. {nm} secretstalker Jan 03, 14:14

TRUE and who's smart idea was to have it open a week after TSND another crappy looking kiddie flick. wrongturn687 Jan 03, 14:21

so is the rock's criteria for doing movies down to if a script passes in front of him. {nm} sneak Jan 03, 15:09

what choice does he have at this point? mickpix Jan 03, 15:42

why you hatin on the man-tittays homes? {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 03, 16:09

Agreed. Seems like they just pulled these numbers out of a hat {nm} RupertPupkin Jan 03, 14:44

I believe that Reel Source does their own research, asking about awareness/interest, etc. secretstalker Jan 03, 14:53

No one who's actually in the film industry takes RS seriously RupertPupkin Jan 03, 15:01

It's sent to exhibitors... they're the only ones who read it and I'm not sure if it has much effect on their bookings. secretstalker Jan 03, 17:31

NRG's tracking has been losing steam over the last few years RupertPupkin Jan 03, 18:13
