On the topic of Hulk's second weekend, here are the second weekend dropoffs of the past few Marvel comic adaptions.
X2 -53.21%
Daredevil -55.12%
Spider Man -37.81%
Blade II -59.97%
X-Men -56.92%
Spider Man is the only fluke there, and it's hard to imagine Hulk having the same type of word of hold. Otherwise, the dropoff %s have stayed in the 50s. I would dare say Hulk may have an even bigger dropoff simply because of the deadly combination of hype (inflating the opening weekend) vs the *possible* disappointment of the masses.
