DL: Too Early: 55 million Friday (all previews rolled in), 115 million 3 Day Projection SUPERMAN notfabio Jul 11, 14:19

I'll take the over :) {nm} tomcat90 Jul 11, 14:40

Ditto {nm} Rocket Jul 11, 14:46

Yeah, way too early. I'd still go with $125m if it ends up being $55m all-inclusive. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Jul 11, 14:43

But that would be bad for COMIC if true... (sulk) {nm} The Weekend Warrior Jul 11, 14:43

If Sat and Sun do only as well as Th and Fri =110. IMHO their predict is LOW {nm} Rocket Jul 11, 14:48

The article has comps of Batman ($56.6m 1st day/ $134m OW) and Guardians 2 ($56m 1st day/ $146m OW). Both had 87 Aud. score vs 95 Superman {nm} tomcat90 Jul 11, 14:57

This is also seemingly more young audience/family geared (DC is known for its frontloading) {nm} notfabio Jul 11, 15:04

Definitely. At my local theater, there seemed to be summer camp with a few dozen kids going to see Superman. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Jul 11, 20:59

THR is going with 115-120 million off the same 55 {nm} notfabio Jul 11, 15:02

"Wait, didn’t you write $140M-$150M? Yes, sources get excited by big numbers." WB got him to lower the projection. Antibody Jul 11, 15:16

Just checked the local (BC Canada) IMAX screenings tonight. Both only half sold. Next showing is less than an hour away. I'm under {nm} milligan Jul 11, 18:31

It's truth, justice and the American way... sorry, Canada. :) {nm} The Weekend Warrior Jul 11, 21:00

Rth says DL's number or slightly more, maybe $56m Friday total. {nm} MattW Jul 11, 21:32
