Weekend Estimates

[Jedi Master Carr]

Here are the Estimates according to Mojo

1 Signs 14.36
2 XXX 13.70
3 Spy Kids 2 7.8
4 My Big Fat Greek Wedding 7.58
5 Blue Crush 6.44

Wow Signs only dropped 25% from last weekend, I think its guarenteed now to make 200 probably will be the third highest grossing film of the summer and the year until Harry Potter 2 and TTT come out. And look at MBFGW it is going up every week could it take the #1 spot in the near future? Also for our interest AOTC made 275,000 according to the estimates, so it now needs 133,000 to make it to 300, should make it by Thursday at the latest.

Thursday was my call for 400M. Good to see it hanging in there though.

[Jedi Master Carr]

400? What happened did Jon and Buff buy out some theaters :p

Bill Gates helped donate $100 million to AOTC and Buff and I bought out entire theaters and then let disadvantaged kids see the movie for free :)

[Figrin D'an]

At least it'll make it to $300 million. My original prediction was around $390 I think...

LOL... it's amazing that a film can make $300 million in it's first run, and we're disappointed... :rolleyes

[JonathanLB]

AOTC beat estimates by more than 10%, dropping less than 4% in its 15th weekend (I think that is right) after gaining 20 theaters.

So it stands at $299,916,304 through Sunday, putting it less than $85,000 away from breaking the massive $300 million mark!

That is still exceptionally good. Very few movies ever have the opportunity to make that much money. Plus, it was only the first release... :)

Good news. :) It's about time.

[JonathanLB]

I know, we are. If only everyone could be so perfect :)

If everyone saw AOTC in theaters as many times as us, it would have made about $10 billion, maybe more, and it would still be #1 and there would still be massive lines around the block just to see it because of the unprecedented demand :)

[Jedi Master Carr]

It will defintely do it by Wed then, could do it Tuesday, we will have to wait and see. I also think it will make between 301-303, depending on how long it can stay in theaters.

It would be fun if we have a big push in screen counts soon, and hope it would be playing here in Alaska again:)
