I was just playin' around, but I imagine the line will be sharp and Kill Bill seems to be gaining a little momentum, could go over whatever number they come up with. It might not, though, if the genereal public isn't drawn in by the unspectacular trailer along with the Tarantino affiliation. I think the movie geeks might be a pretty large demo though.

Yeah, I hear you. It's going to be a tough call with the public. Plus movie haven't been pulling in the crowds like they usually do. But I think things are going to start to pick up. I'm looking forward to the props. Hope someone gets daring and brings them out early.

Folks over at Box Office Mojo convinced this'll definitely be the number one film of the weekend pulling in anywhere between $19-30 million from 3,000+ screens.

....hmmm.

Not sure if Kill Bill's fans are Quentin's fans. Which might not be as many as people think. But who knows. Some predictors are saying 20 and 19 million.

well... you probably know why I'm on the over, haven't seen a number that high for a movie that did less than 30 million that I can remember. Don't know why it would be inflated that much, guess we'll see...

Yeah, but it is October. I put money down on 16 million to 22.9 million for +115. I got it for +130 at Itops. Looks like others feel the same way I do. I don't think Kill Bill is going to beat Once Upon A Time In Mexico. It had Johnny Depp... lots of other big stars, and was a sequel to a popular movie. I don't see it going over 23 million, sorry bud. You can hedge some of your bet at Itops for +115. Just incase. That way you'll still have beer money. lol.

A lot of so called "gurus" are predicting Kill Bill to make around 20 million. I'm liking my play of 16 - 23 million more and more.

I don't evenm realy pay much attention to those guys anymore, I did check out Boxofficereort and Le's, which both have it pegged at oever22, no? I'm saying 25 million, at least. I didn't go and see OUTIM, but I will be seeing this one. Buzz is through the roof, dog. Movie geeks are going to be flooding the theaters this weekend.

plus the stock is trading at 70 bucks, which I think you might divide by 3 to get the estimated gross, 23 sounds pretty good to me, those guys are usually pretty sharp, but haven;'t been as accurate inrecentmonth, still, lookin' good for the over.

oh, one other thing, it's #4 on the top anticipated chart, which is pretty damn good. yeah it's tilted towards internet movie geeks, but still, an excellent rank.

yeah, but look where it only is on yahoo's top movie chart. On this day Once Upon A Time In Mexico was number 1 when it was opening. Kill Bill is only number seven.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Top Movies
1. Wonderland
2. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
3. The Matrix Revolutions
4. The School of Rock
5. The Rundown
6. Out of Time
7. Kill Bill Vol. 1
8. Underworld
9. Once Upon a Time in Mexico
10. Lost in Translation

You can get 16 - 23 million for +120 is still the best choice.

7 is still good enough for a gross in the mid 20's, imo, although I woul have liked to see it at least one rank higher. Most movies this month didn't show up on that list at all... which means it should be good for at least 20 million. It is also now the #1 movie at moviefone.com, which I don't think School of Rock achieved until later in the night on thursday? Who knows how often they update that thing.

what can I say, T3 had a buzz score of 53 the Thurday before it's release, Kill Bill has 5 more points than that. I'm sure T3 was also the #1 movie on that other chart, however, so maybe it will balance itself out to an even 25 million.

here's a theater report from Puerto Rico:

"I saw the 6:30pm of Kill Bill,It was about 50% full in a 120 seater.
It was a Good film but i was disaapointed mostly because it didnt live up to all the hype,It was still good ***/****,I say half the people liked it and the other didnt,i can say all the people in the theatre were Tarantino fans by the way they cheard when the credits came and said Quentin Tarantino's 4th film.

The Trailers were
ROTK:Every Loved it
TCM:Great response
Alien Directors cut:No reaction,when it came on and said:The scariest film of alltime,i could hear people sniff.Good Trailer IMO.


I say Kill bill wont be the smash people think it will be,i say it does 21mill and finish with about 55mill.
