...a guy expressing an opinion on box office, on the discussion forums of a box office prediction website...didn't see that coming!

I firmly believe that had CAROL opened on the day before Thanksgiving it would have been HUGE. Laprawler509 Nov 08, 08:09

Their thinking is giving the movie extended time to play through the holidays . . GBlaylock Nov 08, 08:56

Plus Thanksgiving this year . . . GBlaylock Nov 08, 09:01

It will play well through the holidays - look at Elf and Polar Express's opening versus final box office take, both of which opened at Boogaloo Nov 08, 09:03

All of the Santa Clause movies opened the beginning of November. {nm} fourstars Nov 08, 11:23

3-D window was probably their primary concern. {nm} Catzan Nov 08, 15:33

Probably a lone voice on this one ... Somerset Nov 08, 19:18

Epic fail on all accounts anonymous nobody! {nm} thatpj Nov 08, 21:18

...the new defintion of 'success' people - making up sentences that don't really mean anything or relate in anyway to the topic discussed. Somerset Nov 08, 22:03

Christmas movies have an expiration date that other films do not. To open it later would be leaving money on the table. {nm} Qale Nov 08, 23:38
