The Dark Knight

[Jean-Pierre Bazinet]

Predict the weekend box office numbers for The Dark Knight
4,300+ Theatres

(note that .1 means anything over zero
ie: 10,000,000 = 10 Million --- 10,000,001 = 10.1 Million)

Thank You J-P, Thank You!!



Where's Mithy and his predictions?



I'm seeing predictions of over $155 Million which will break Spider Man 3's $151 Million record breaking opening weekend and some experts are even predicting (I Doubt It) that it will be the first movie in history with a $200 Million opening weekend!!

Thanks J-P !

But 150Million+ is very tough. I don't no, maybe, maybe not.
I will bet tomorrow.

[j7wild]

I am so tempted to bet 10,000 credits on 150 million plus but....

Where's Mithy and his predictions?

I'm in Jerusalem right now... but I have predictions.

The Weekend Warrior - 126.2 mil.
BO Report - 118 mil.
BO Guru - 131 mil.

I would like to see new record (more than 151 mil.) but I doubt Dark Knight can do this. 130 mil. like Dead Man's Chest yes, but more...

[Mithrandir01]

I bet 1700 on 130+. Somethings tell me, that it'll reach around 138 mil.

[j7wild]

I'm gonna skip this one!!

[Haazhel_Thorn]

The Dark Knight is now #1 on the All-Time-Widest-Releases-List with 4,366 theaters.

All in ! !

I'm in Jerusalem right now...

if Haazhel wins, he will be the new richest person on M-L!!

[michalz00]

With such hype, I will be disappointed if it doesn't reach 150.1 Million (and over)

[Mithrandir01]

The Dark Knight midnight showings record

18.4 mil.

everything is still possible...

[Mithrandir01]

Can you pray for me? ?

I can't. You bet other gross than me...

[Mithrandir01]

Guys...

Nikki Finke says 160-170...

EXCLUSIVE: Though they won't dare discuss this in public, I'm told that Warner Bros bigwigs are hoping for between $160 million and $170 million for Batman: The Dark Knight's 3-day weekend total gross from a record 4,366 North American theaters despite a 152 minute running time. Now that may be impossible, and a huge increase from the $130 million that the studio bosses were expecting earlier in the week, but anything over $100 million is going to be considered a humongous success. Because the ticket sales frenzy, from coast to coast, city to city, town to town, with almost 24/7 performances even in the hinterlands, new sceenings being squeezed in by the minute, online services selling an average of nearly 10 tickets per second for the pic during peak periods, and all those IMAX sell-outs, has everyone revved up.

Hmm, I'd love to bet on this one but the range is just too great and the risk is a bit too much. Estimates range from 118 to 150, that's four different possible payoffs.
