Still "only" priced for a 170m opening, and it'll keep going up at least until week of release if not all the way up until Saturday Dec 19th sometime when that day's info starts coming in.  Like I said above, thurs and friday will be huge, more than enough to justify a summertime 200+ opening, but saturday and sunday's numbers will bring it back down to earth.

Actually I wouldn't be surprised if the sunday guesses are way too high leading to a weekend estimate above $200m.  Weekend actuals are what matter though.

A small bet.... MattW Nov 17, 19:12

I'm really excited, not only for the film, but because over half my net worth is tied up in STAR7. Exogen Nov 18, 15:41

Both Jurassic World and Avengers were underestimated (by 4 and 7 mil) {nm} JDolphin Nov 19, 18:01

and for the purpose of HSX on Saturday evening - the Sunday estimate is what matters {nm} JDolphin Nov 19, 18:11

For the adjust yeah, for my bet I'm going by actuals. {nm} MattW Nov 19, 18:33

Well, I've enjoyed competing with you, and I will miss it. ;) {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Nov 19, 13:49

We'll be competing for a while to come don't you worry XD {nm} MattW Nov 19, 14:22

I agree it'll probably under 200 million OW. I don't think it'll have staying power earn about $480 million overall. Baron_Darcon Nov 19, 15:20

And you base this on... ? {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Nov 19, 17:00

Just a gut feeling.. I've usually had a good sense of box office. Baron_Darcon Nov 20, 01:54

You need to look at the history of Christmas to New Years box office if you think STaR7 is going to have that poor of a delist {nm} JDolphin Nov 19, 18:15

I dunno MattW - $50M already in presales. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Nov 19, 16:59

If I'm wrong you can rub it in my face as much as you want.... MattW Nov 19, 18:36

I find your lack of faith disturbing. :) {nm} Iger Nov 19, 17:21
