Ned's lead narrows to $30 mil, Colleen holds off Chuck and Jeff and 3 fail to crack a billion. With the multiplier in affect this year, the final tallies are going to be high! Ned held off a surging Faith which moves into second with the help of 'Skyfall'. 'Skyfall' made an impressive opening of $88.3 million. Ned held off a surging Faith which moves into second with the help of 'Skyfall'. 'Skyfall' made an impressive opening of $88.3 million. 'Lincoln' made over $900,000 on just 11 screens. That comes out to somewhere around $85,000 per screen. Maybe we should score this league differently, hmmm ….
Coming out this week is Twilight Part 1. This seems to be the new fad to squeak more money out of the movie viewer. Break the movie a part and spread the openings out over time. It works when the content is just right. Case in point, the “twi-hards” will en mass this weekend descending on theaters across the land. They will arrive at theaters like a flock of birds sitting in the trees all singing their own chirp ... at the same time. What is that chirp you speak of, the baby. Yes, the baby! Never picked up a book even to glance at. Seen no movies and can't remember the trailers even if they did pass my eyes.
But I know about the baby. Here is hoping it doesn't open it's eyes until Part 2, or a surprise planned Part 3. Let's just say you have been warned!
