I wonder how the current releases are going to hold this weekend considering there is Twilight and Happy Feet assaulting the BO..

There's also Veteran's Day which boosted the Friday grosses. I think that will contribute to larger than normal drops for J&J and Immortals.

2012 fell 59.5% in its second weekend against the opening weekend of "New Moon" in Nov. 2009. Other wide releases fell 45-85%.

Of recent "two weeks before thanksgiving" movies, 2012 seems to be the best comp for IMRTL, I think. It ended up delisting at 2.29 mult.

We'll be seeing lots of 50%+ drops. Serious damage to Footloose and Puss.

I'm curious as to whether a movie like Twilight hurts other movies, especially on Friday, just because people who aren't seeing Twilight

I'm pretty sure that's less of a factor than the movie itself siphoning off viewers. Counterprogramming offsets the 'zoo' effect.

Jack and Jill will suffer more from bad wom than from the openers imo. Immortals and Edgar should be mostly ok.
