Well, if this was the "how much does it make on opening day" thread you would have won.

Cloverfield pulled in $18.5 million on Friday alone.

Looks like pretty much everyone but me & opne or two others were pretty off the mark on this one.

I'm thrilled to be off about this one. I've had a number of people at work come up to me and ask how the movie was. One kid who works for me asked me a ton of questions about the film and finally someone told him to just shut up, pay the 7.00 and see the movie. I told him that seem liked the right thing to do.

Looks like a $41 million opening weekend which sets a new record.

Judging from the very mixed response it's received on various message boards and real life theatres, I think it'll top out at $110M at most. It helps that this time of year is a wasteland when it comes to new movies.

I'd say it hits $130M total. Maybe a little more, but not much less.
