    Yep, that just about confirms it for the end of any real money for Mon-Thur from now on. That figure and yesterday's are by far the worst AOTC:TIE has had, so things are really winding down after over 100 days of release.

    Fri-Sat-Sun will be the only chance to make more than small change, and it looks at the moment like a $10k weekend is probable.


    1. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days $1,292,619
    2. Chicago $1,130,000 (estimate)
    3. Shanghai Knights $893,171

    TTT made $265,000 (estimated).

    I predict DD will make anything from 30-60 million.



    It is a hard one to judge. It could bomb, it could do amazing. Both are a very realistic scenario. But Id expect something in the middle, about 40. Finishing over 100, meaning a profit, meaning the Elektra spinoff/Sequel/TV series/ReaperFett cheers :)

    DamonD, since you missed the other two times I posted my Daredevil prediction of

    *****************

    $35 MILLION


    *****************

    I will post it a third time.

    :) By the way, I really appreciate you taking the time to put these prediction lists together. Your enthusiasm takes away some of the sting of us being shunted off into the "JC Community" forum. :)

    Daredevil has been widely panned. It has a 50% rating on rotten tomatoes, but almost all the top mainstream critics have very little nice to say about the movie.

    The movie has been marketed heavily, on the other hand, so unless Valentine's Day kills it, it ought to do reasonably well. However, I'd expect by Saturday the public will mostly agree with the critics and you'll see a fast slide and 50% plus drops next week.

    TTT will take a hit today from Daredevil and Valentine's Day, but will rebound nicely on Saturday, Sunday and enjoy a nice bonus on Monday.
