Thursday's box office resulted in another $1,151,342, which moves Dark Shadows' domestic box office to $55,482,896,
Thanks for posting those numbers. And I also see that similar to how on Wednesday DS was one of the films to fall off with the smallest percentage, on Thursday it was one of the ones with the largest gain:
Thursday's Box Officewhich is currently good enough to place it at #19 for the year to date
Excellent! We didn't even need to wait for Friday's box office for it to leap into the Top 20.
It's also interesting to note that one of the films it lept past was
The Woman in Black.
Although I anticipate that Men In Black III will leapfrog Dark Shadows this weekend, I also suspect that there are 5 or so movies that could fall behind Dark Shadows this weekend.
Box Office Mojo is forecasting both
Men In Black III and
Chernobyl Diaries. But even if DS places 6th or 7th for the weekend, that wouldn't be anything to get upset about.
While there has been quite a bit of concern expressed that this movie will be viewed as a bomb, I don't share those concerns.
Nor do I. I'm pretty sure some people will say it - but just like some of the other things that have already been said (like how it was on life support
), that won't make it true.
And I do expect the movie to do well in the aftermarket.
Definitely.
