strong with low theater counts.

Anyone else surprised SHISL is only in 2,500 theaters? Can a movie succeed (say more than $100MM) in so few theaters? GMov Feb 11, 20:53

Where's your link to the theater counts, please.... ? {nm} Facto Feb 11, 20:59

According to BOM's tables, 47 / 265 which have opened over $30M were on less than 3000 screens. MBFGW never played on more than 2016. second gary Feb 11, 21:03

Why wouldn't Paramount get the film (which seems to be tracking well) into more theaters? They must have decent hopes for it given ad budget {nm} GMov Feb 11, 21:14

Dear John was listed in 2400 theaters right up until the day before opening when it jumped up to closer to 3,000. secretstalker Feb 12, 04:30

That doesn't give me hope, but 8 Mile opened in 2,470 theaters and grossed $51m, so it all depends on whether it can hit a nice theater avg swynne23 Feb 12, 06:06
