2012 fell 59.5% in its second weekend against the opening weekend of "New Moon" in Nov. 2009. Other wide releases fell 45-85%.

Posted by: second gary (a.k.a 80181597) on Nov 14, 12:11 in response to b4bad's post I wonder how the current releases are going to hold this...

... with the exception of the expanding "Precious."

Other releases (except "Pirate Radio") had all been out at least three weeks.

I wonder how the current releases are going to hold this weekend considering there is Twilight and Happy Feet assaulting the BO.. b4bad Nov 14, 12:05

As for Immortals... Ruthian23 Nov 14, 12:10

There's also Veteran's Day which boosted the Friday grosses. I think that will contribute to larger than normal drops for J&J and Immortals. Jay_Beezy Nov 14, 12:21

Of recent "two weeks before thanksgiving" movies, 2012 seems to be the best comp for IMRTL, I think. It ended up delisting at 2.29 mult. Paul2k Nov 14, 12:51

We'll be seeing lots of 50%+ drops. Serious damage to Footloose and Puss. {nm} Guts Nov 14, 12:12

I agree with Ruthian. Twilight and Feet will erase them all. And... JMT-NL Nov 14, 12:16

and I agree with be4bad ;-) {nm} JMT-NL Nov 14, 12:17

I'm curious as to whether a movie like Twilight hurts other movies, especially on Friday, just because people who aren't seeing Twilight Ruthian23 Nov 14, 12:23

I'm pretty sure that's less of a factor than the movie itself siphoning off viewers. Counterprogramming offsets the 'zoo' effect. {nm} Guts Nov 14, 12:28

Jack and Jill will suffer more from bad wom than from the openers imo. Immortals and Edgar should be mostly ok. {nm} Guts Nov 14, 12:23
