How much it makes total will depend on the weekday numbers, and the hold next weekend, as the media decides to leach onto whatever the next story is (for NBC it'll be the Olympics).

all the athiests on the east coast couldn't give two shits, and I don't blame them. The shooting shouldn't be associated with the film.
The bible belt down here in the south feels a little different. Also, I had planned to see it saturday after work with all my coworkers, who are all Japanese (and have never been to a theater), couldn't be dragged now. The story ran all day on the news and now they are scared shitless. They were scared to go before the shooting, but I had talked them into it. A lot of talking for nothing.
But I stand by my remarks. The film will make the same amount of money as it would've anyways, if not more, it'll just take a little longer to get there.
if nothing else, this will forever alter movie going experiences, in OUR favor. I'm so selfish, but this incident really bothered me for its sheer stupidity.

bingo, they are afraid of everything. They were all speaking Japanese looking all confused and the ONE who knows english well did an "air machine gun" demonstration and then they all covered their mouths and started shaking their heads. I was pretty pumped about taking them too. An irregular situation for sure, but just an example. My store was very slow, when shit like this is on TV, people stay at home, not out of respect, but glued to the television.

Don't the theaters get a higher percentage of revenue later in a movie's run than when the movie first opens? So won't Warner Bros be losing money due to less people going this weekend even if they go see it later?
