With the 4pm start and anticipated frontloading, I can see $20m Friday. Anything more will surprise me.

The Fifty Shades series, and horror movies, are the only movies to miss a $50 mil OW with previews over $5.0 mil.

4 PM? We're already there then. Wonder how far "preview creep" will go, and how fast it'll get there.

Maybe by episode 9, we'll be back to good old fashioned 12:01 am showings Thursday, which will all count toward Friday, for effectively 2.5+ days of gross rolled into 1. 400M OW here we come!

Unless we see a big Saturday drop I think 50m should happen.


Good # but boy did I overpredict on this lol. After seeing it I'm not sure how it'll catch on with non-fans but I hope it makes enough for a sequel.

Poms had 3pm previews. Beyond ridiculous.

I wouldn't be surprised if its opening weekend gross is 50% of its total gross. Everyone who wants to see it will rush out to see it, and everyone else will not care.

The total maybe low but a 50 million opener would make it a 100 million-115 million grosser. The Pokemon series have always been frontloaded barely passing a 2 multiplier except the first movie but even that was considered very frontloaded 20 years ago

$195 mil is the mark I guess.

Even $195m total gross prediction will be way off.

Pickachu will probably have a lousy Sunday, unless Moms dig Pokémon.

Saw it at 4pm. Cute movie. Nice surprise at the end. When can we stop calling it previews? Noon? 1pm? 2pm? 3pm?

I'm somewhat relieved that my initial bewilderment re: some of the crazy high predictions here and other places wasn't the result of me being old and out of touch (although that is also true).

Ack! I had $200m predicted for MGKCs game but changed it a couple of hours before the deadline because of all the crazy Nintenbots predictions here. Should have gone with my gut feeling that this was a movie just for kids and/or mental age challenged adults.

Avengers - 7.51m thursday.

So with IW increases it hits 67.6m. But it will have some Pikachu impact having to share PLF screen space. I will stick with 65-67m range for 3rd weekend.
