Weekend Box Office Thread (2/9 - 2/11)
Friday's Estimates
1. NORBIT $10,750,000
2. HANNIBAL RISING $4,900,000
3. BECAUSE I SAID SO $2,785,000
4. THE MESSENGERS $2,375,000
5. EPIC MOVIE $1,255,000
6. NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM $1,250,000
7. SMOKIN' ACES $1,190,000
8. PAN'S LABYRINTH $1,000,000
9. DREAMGIRLS $810,000
10. STOMP THE YARD $675,000
Looks like Thomas Harris may have finally succeeded in milking Silence of the Lambs for all it was worth. The black-man-dressing-as-a-fat-black-woman comedy, however, still has a lot of steam left in it. Tyler Perry will be pleased.

I really can't believe that number for Norbit. That's looking at a 25-30 million opening weekend, and probably cruising to a 100+ total. I would have said that Norbit was going to tank terribly, and obviously I would have been very wrong.

Obviously discriminating moviegoers are racing to their local theaters to see just how bad these movies are - according to Rotten Tomatoes:
2% - Epic Movie
7% - Because I Said So
16%- Hannibal Rising
9% - Norbit
(...makes that 45% for Museum look good!)

According to boxofficereport.com's early weekend estimates, "Pan's Labyrinth" only had a 6% drop from last weekend. That's great news. Word of mouth has been phenominal for this film.
