I had estimated 65-70M weekend, but I don't count Wed afternoon and Thurs previews when I think OW.  So it performed "as" high as I could imagine.  It exceeded my expectations to some degree (I suppose), as it hit the highest point I thought it could on the descending half of my bell curve.  In fact, I had it my OW set at 99968 - i use the last 2 numbers (or 3 in some cases) to remind me how much I think it will make FRI-SUN.  It made about 70M FRI-SUN.

For what it's worth, we thought the original was better (die hard fan stuff).  I would love to take the time to detail all the things we liked about the original... but it would end up being TLDR.  We rated the original an A+, and this one an A overall. (I was the outlier with B+ because some of the "science" and few too many homages to the original (IMHO) took my mind out of the movie at times - slight detractor for me).  Good movie though!  Glad I saw it in theater!
