For reference, the chart had been typo’d and is now accurate.

    Mojo’s got 14mil and 43 mil, for cume of 57 vs Pirates 2 Friday total of 55 mil, total of 154 mil til Monday.
    My 152 mil looking good so far, checked Lee and he predicted 151.7 mil.

    Actually, it’s still typo’d. Unless there truly is a film named “20 Weeks Later”…

    Yeah but if you squint the 0 looks kind of like an 8, so lets cut em some slack.

    Now I don’t feel so bad about getting my age wrong in the Star Wars thread…

  5. Other places also have Away From Her in the top ten, which is much more interesting than the amount that Pirates will ultimately make. The real test will be next weekend.

  6. doug r says:

    Lee’s got 37.7 mil for Saturday with a 93 mil cume, down 3%. Shrek and Spidey bounced back about 45% from Friday….

    I never understood the box office business so the only prediction that I made was that Pirates III would suck and it did. Therefore, I win!

“Two hours in the labyrinth of Paramount’s Avarice…. It was my first–and my last–IMAX venture. Haven’t been to a 3-D movie in years, and it’s bye-bye to THAT scathing visual transgression for the remainder of MY lifetime… It was an unceasing, unrelenting, take-no-audience-prisoners audial and visual back-alley mugging for two hours… I have been beaten up many times; I know what it feels like: this was a two-hour assault. I weep, as Jesus wept, for the generations that will grow up thinking this is what it means to “go to the movies.” I am near-on 79, and I [understand] that this is a generational opinion, but I do not think any sensible person not of a tot age where videogame… overkill is pro forma, could confuse the IMAX “experience” with a Saturday matinee outing. The term “author” as regards Summer Blockbuster movies, is not only moot, it is Urdu. Mountains heave mightily, and give birth to volcanic ant-hills.”

“One of the things I wish I could do in my life would be to watch this film through somebody else’s eyes. I just can’t. I still see it as just a giant mess, and other people are seeing that it has a shape. That’s really exciting, because I still have a hard time seeing it clearly.”
