Oh well, hopefully people really didn't know about Tuesday. WOM will be amazing....
Speaking of WOM...I'm so happy for Ratatouille.

Two showings for the midnight were sold out at my theater. No way it just made 780k at midnight. Though maybe my theater was just different than other theaters. Well, unlike with Pirates, these 8pm sneaks were on a night when school was out and when many people have the next day off. 8-11pm shows could have definetely absorbed most of the demand on monday.

Ratatouille could make 10 million on both Tuesday and Thursday... the holiday will keep it from that number on Wednesday...

If Ratatouille follows Shrek's daily pattern from 2001 (the last time July 4th was on Wednesday), Ratatouille will have $7.1m on Thursday. It should be higher since Shrek lost theaters against 2 Wednesday openers, and then a 40% Friday increase will put it at over $10m and a $33-35m weekend.

Well, the last time 4th of July fell on a wednesday, multiple films saw increases over 10% (Shrek increased over 25%), and this was despite two openers combining for about 18mil. I think films will see increases this year as well, since there is no opener this year on the 4th of July.

That would be an amazing hold if it got to 35mil, I think the best second weekend drop for any Pixar film ever.

It's so hard to compare it to Shrek though, as it did lose theatres, but also because Shrek was over a month old at that point...

an just a note that people might enjoy...
Up here in Canada, a theatre chain called Famous Players has cheap night on Tuesday nights...
They regularly charge 10$ for an adult, but on Tuesday nights they charge $4.20 . Funnily enough, they are still doing it today for Transformers opening day.... my friends all got their tickets this morning, and they paid four dollars and twenty cents for them....
I wonder how dreamworks feels about this

I see the following breakdown for Rataouille: Mon: 7.55m Tues: 9.4m (25% increase) Wed: 11.8m (25% increase) Thurs: 7.1m (40% drop) Fri: 10.3m (45% increase) Sat: 13.4m (30% incrase) Sun: 10.7m (20% drop) 2nd weekend: 34.4m (27% drop) Total after 10 days: 117.3m If that is indeed it's total after 10 days, it would all but guarentee that this passes 200 million total..

Cars had $117.1m after its second weekend, so Ratatouille would pull ahead with that.

How badly will HP5 really hurt it? The movies are skewing older and older. Granted, Chicken Little dropped 53% against it, but it also had an inflated second weekend.

Nice fact, Ratatouille had the highest grossing first Monday of all Pixar films so far. Nemo was released May 30th, and Cars June 9th, though still. A mighty impressive hold. _________________Shack’s top 50 tv shows - viewtopic.php?f=8&t=90227

Competition matters much more for families. For other audiences the effect is minimal. They might affect each other slightly. But for two films of their size they couldn't be more different.

I remember what happened with Cars' first weekdays, so I don't expect more than a 10/15% increase today. Still thinking a sub-30% weekend drop is possible, though, since its Thursday drop should be lower than Shrek's.
