Where are the weekend numbers? 
Just figured I'd get that out of the way early.

This is one of those movies that you HAVE to see in the theater.
Years from now people that missed it in the theater will hope it gets re-released to be able to experience it on the bigscreen (Like I did with the original star wars movies and finally got to see them in the theater for the first time in '97)
The giant screen and maybe THE best sound I've ever heard in a theater MAKE this movie. It becomes more of an experience than just a movie. The last time I remember being wowed by the combination of incredible sound and effects like this in a theater was in '93 with Jurassic Park and its welcoming debut of DTS sound.
Very Highly recommended
My one word review....
INTENSE

Definately needs to be seen on the big screen; the sound, the visuals, etc. It does not have the "let's save the world" feeling that is so cheesy (ID4) nor does it have the "we will prevail speeches" that are so lame (again ID4 or Day After) nor the child like dialogue and characters (Star Wars).

Having seen The Lord of the Rings Extended Edition DVD's on a Samsung 50" DLP rear projection TV connected to a Pioneer DV-434 DVD player it doesn't lose any of its impact--and in fact it's often better than the original big screen experience because you don't suffer the issues of out-of-focus and/or too dark projections that seem to plague a lot of theaters nowadays.

War of the Worlds is definitely impeding on Batman's space (as it has since Wednesday). BB is down 45% from last Friday, so it's still holding up relatively well.
Oh and yeah, Land of the Dead was off 80.1%

I'll wait 'til I can Netflix it instead.
