Why does she estimate 16M weekend for LSONG after a 7M Friday? Seems too low, it would mean that both Saturday and Sunday

would bring in less cash than opening day Wednesday.

So I'm thinking it's pretty fair to say that she going quite soft on that estimate - unless there's something about Easter weekend box office dynamics that I am missing.. ?

Either way, it is a long, but not a massive one.

RELEASE THE CASH! 3D 'Clash Of The Titans' Opens To $30M Friday & Easter Weekend Est Of $65M; Tyler Perry $13M/$30M, 'Dragon' $11M/$28M; Mil {nm} sprinter319 Apr 02, 23:37

Pretty much expected for all IMO, although Alice dropped slightly harder then I thought it would. {nm} Mattrek Apr 02, 23:45

Good Friday causes a pretty big boost in sales. Even non-openers can drop from Friday to Saturday. Jelly Apr 03, 05:35

For the curious, that 30M figure does include the Thursday night #s. {nm} Jelly Apr 03, 02:50

That's an insane number for WDIG2.. Why oh why did I drop my long position on it... LAT scores once more with Clash (they predicted 60-70), Facto Apr 03, 04:54

If those numbers hold, I'm 3/3 this weekend. {nm} secretstalker Apr 03, 06:15

Seemed the concensus among gut-checkers was right this weekend: Clash short, WDIG2 long, LSONG wash (slight long) Facto Apr 03, 06:19

LSONG is a long even with Good Friday/Easter.... I don't think everyone went short on CLASH though. {nm} secretstalker Apr 03, 06:31

It feels good to go against that majority and come out being right. looking like 3/3. =) {nm} the_noble Apr 03, 06:53

I dont think you are going against the majority for LSONG and WDIG2.. most had those two movies long.. karspov Apr 03, 06:56

It kind of would be awesome if there was some way HSX could show how many shares are being held one way or the other secretstalker Apr 03, 07:15

Sure.. even with just a percentage would be awesome.. say for example 70% long and 30% short that kind of data.. {nm} karspov Apr 03, 07:28

that would be great! do you think we could get that added on here? {nm} the_noble Apr 03, 10:29
