those arent even the actuals either...those are the studio estimates...trust me...im praying for a miracle on WTC...i wrote it off after seeing fridays #'s and it came out of nowhere increasing 25% on saturday...if somehow it can only fall off 10% on sunday (instead of the 25% they are calling for) it would hit 20million...i highly doubt it will happen...but WOM has been solid thus far.....its rare to see a movie to make more on a sunday than it did on a friday....but you never know...
For all those that enjoy making money check me out at the College Football Forum with Alamo..on the hush hush... im working on a Stone Cold Lead Pipe Lock for Week 1...keep an eye out for it...even if you dont bet on College Football...if their is a time to pop your cherry let me do it for you...well thats if you like:

Husker looks like the WTC is going to land in the 19 mil range, film just couldn't get up over the hump even though it had great WOM...But as I look at the Budget of 65 mil, I think that the numbers by Pinny 30 for the 5 day and 20 for theweekend were just a little bit high and Paramount says they are happy with the gross...so maybe I was a little optomistic on this film
Next Week
Next Week
i just got home from work and of course the 1st thing i do is read and my boy (aka the chosen one)...says the following..
"FYI..I would expect better than projected Sunday for WTCEN for sure and maybe TALDG
Sunday was actually the best day yet at my theatres for WTCEN and TALDG barely dropped from Sat-Sun."
he thinks "its possible" to see WTC hit 20million...one way or the other i have this sickening feeling in my stomach right now... im gonna win or lose by a close margin...and the difference in money is a HUGE swing for me...-1unit if it loses or +5units if it goes over...
needless to say ill post the actuals when released which should be in a few hours...
