Yup! Just for Friday! Estimates are at $60 mil. Maybe less given the snow storm.....but most psychos would brave the elements anyway so no loss there. I would not think that is a very successful weekend for a big budget movie like this?  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Personally I don't know how they tabulate such things....I think they just estimate anyway! No way they could have an even close to accurate dollar figure!

Hey, I know it looks like I lost...and no problem...but, c'mon....you said bomb.....It is definitely not a bomb.
Oh and its currently at number 31 on the all time list....so it did break the top 50.

I think you need to go two weekends on the bet do to the snow!!! 
We seem to be OK here but the central east coast (Virginia through Nj and NY ) got hammered. I bet there isn't a quarter of the people from the big population centers who have gone yest do to the snow. |
