I checked it out last week you were really close
Thats all you think Kickass will do? 33mill?! i have to strongly disagree with you there, its gonna open up with 50 plus just watch, id bet money it. With the hype this movie has gotten, and I know some ppl in the business that tell me theyre expecting big numbers from this.
I respect your opinion Mark. However I'm sorry to say that you were grossly misinformed, the studio estimates for Friday have come in already at 7.6million. Are you saying that word of mouth for an Rrated movie mind you, will be strong enough to generate an additional 40 plus million between Saturday and Sunday in the middle of April? I highly doubt this, I wouldn't suggest betting on the outcome of this movie either, especially not based on the info your friends in the "business" have given you.
I'm actually starting to think I may have predicted too high for Kick-Ass to open with 33million, based on the Friday numbers...
