If the updated list on the site is correct (it should be, as they just added some locations), then it'll be at 603 by my count.

Humm. At the current price (and with the crowded market) it still sounds like a short to me. At best a wash. Thoughts?

I'm thinking we are underestimating how many guys will be seeing it... Some will go with girlfriends, some will go with groups of friends,

Pretty boys, angst ridden girls, & vampires: Twilight is the epitome of a chick flick. I invision Dads & gay guys only.

I agree that it is a perfect girls night out flick but...

85 million copies sold - keep that in mind, A fraction of that before the 1st film. The fanbase has expanded in a massive way.

Book vs movie = apples vs oranges. I loved the Harry Potter books but only saw the first movie. No more. To me, the books are waaay better.

Repeat viewings from females will balance out how the demo skewers female... Btw, I've never seen a single Harry Potter-movie, nor read any

Believe me when I say I have no interest in this romantic vampire crap. Trust me, I could live to be 100 and will still NEVER want to see it

Given the bottom is around 90m while the ceiling could $120m, i don't see value of shorting

Agreed. Looking only at opening weekend, this has long written all over it....

Naturally this assumes the tracking is correct. Which I would be more inclined to believe (on the high side) if this were a Summer release.
HuskyMiller

True...but one of the points I was making was that the tracking could be wrong by 15-20% and it still HSX adjust long..

She's enthusiastic about BLNSD (low 20s) and PLT51 (high teens/low 20s).
