Interesting that despite its huge opening day, it didn't beat New Moon's opening day. Having said that, New Moon opened on a Friday so I guess we should expect a slight drop midweek. Still with such a huge opening day surely a big drop is to be expected on Thursday before a surge again for the weekend.

Eclipse's second day: $25 million (a single day drop of 64%). Meanwhile, The Last Airbender opens to $16 million. Toy Story 3 meanwhile increased on Thursday from Wednesday with $8 million.
This weekend is looking big.

The Last Airbender has an abysmal 8% on Rotten Tomatoes. This worse than Jonah Hex's 12% from two weeks ago. Expect major fanboy effect on it.

Looks like I got Knight and Day wrong.
Meanwhile, I went to a showing of it today and there were probably 20 people total in the theatre. However, the theatre printed the wrong time (always check the Internet) so maybe some people went to see it and came too late.

Well you see, the answer is simple. The imdb users are racists.Brockster wrote:Ouch, the imdb score for ECLIPSE is at 3.6 with over 5,000 votes. It would seem like the hater crowd is rushing to imdb to vote yet again (probably even if they have not seen the movie)...there are twice as many male votes as there are female. The questionable low imdb score strikes again, but we've seen this happen before (Tyler Perry movies anyone?)...however, most of us who picked this movie should have known this would happen.
Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man. - The Dude

I wonder if the IMDB for Twilight works in reverse, in that over time it's score will improve as the IMDB guys stop voting and their fans actually watch the movie and give it a fair score?

BOM Sunday Estimates
Top 5:
5 points - Twilight: Eclipse, $69M ($162M total)
4 points - Last Airbender, $40.6M
3 points - Toy Story 3, $30.2M ($289M total)
2 points - Grown Ups, $18.5M
1 point - Knight & Day, $10.2M
So it virtually certain now that Toy Story 3 will indeed pass Finding Nemo ($339M) and become Pixar's highest-grossing film ever. By doing so, it will, of course, also take over the #1 spot for 2010 (Alice in Wonderland grossed $338M).
PTA:
5 points - Twilight: Eclipse
4 points - Last Airbender
3 points - Cyrus
2 points - Toy Story 3
1 point - Winter's Bone

I know I shouldn't but you gotta laugh... A 23 year old man from Wellington, NZ died yesterday when at a screening of Twilight. Found by a cleaner who thought he was asleep, he was supposedly bored to death. Literally...
Or maybe he just couldn't decide whether to pick between Team Edward or Team Jacob and it sent him over the edge, as I've heard they choose which side of the cinema to sit on and cheer each character on...

Re: SPEARE'S TIPS - The Films of 6/30, 7/2
I truly wish I was Donte, but it seems over here young boys are just as obsessed with this series as the young girls. I've been mounting my one man stance against the movie on the local cinema facebook page, which is flooded with gushing Twihards talking of their orgasmic experiences of the movie (because of demand the cinema chain put all three movies together opening night for a full saga of mind numbing puberty drenched teenage girl infatuations). And it is true about the teams. I know someone who worked in the cinema and he said that when they all had their tickets, they each split into teams before entering the theatre, and each sat on opposing sides of the screen. Can you imagine how bile inducing that is! It hasn't helped that the cinema chain seem intent on fuelling their infatuations, constantly advertising the movie, selling tickets months in advance and promoting the merchandise in every corner of both cinema and website. I have had many a rant as to why Toy Story tickets only went on sale a day before its actual release, while Inception tickets are still not for sale. Considering these will be equally as big, if not bigger movies than Twilight, it's kinda frustrating.
So with all that you man understand my delight at hearing this news. I couldn't help but laugh out loud in a public space.
