It really looks like Quentin Tarantino is going to make a lot of money this weekend. The movie already ranks number 14 in the genre war movie all time gross.
It seems like it will beat Saving Privat Ryan for the first weekend. The only war movie with a better first weekend is Pearl Harbor and I guess this is going to stay this way for a pretty long time.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

If only I'd added 10 million to IB's numbers!! :shakefist

[Crusader]

I should have taken my district nine number from last week and used it as an IB guess.
