Current Talk '24 I / Re: Depp/Burton DARK SHADOWS Is In Release!!

Well, WB/DS did buck the theaters pattern - but not in the way I feared might happen because instead of being pulled from theaters DS has expanded - and for a third time yet, which may actually be unprecedented this year (I'll have to check when I get the chance). And actually DS is probably opening in more than just 3 theaters because we really have no way of knowing how many new theaters might be being added because we have no way of knowing how many theaters DS may close in today (though The Doctor and K9 told us about at least 2 closures in Texas). So, this upcoming weekend's box office numbers could actually prove to be interesting if it turns out that DS could be opening in many new theaters.
And speaking of theaters, I checked to see how many films have played in more than 135 in their 14th week this year - and it turns out to be only 8:
The Hunger Games (414)
Dr. Seuss' The Lorax (315)
Marvel's The Avengers (300)
Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (260)
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (230)
21 Jump Street (220)
Mirror Mirror (166)
Safe House (136)
And I also checked to see how many films in total have even reached a 14th week this year - and counting DS that turns out to be only 18. As I've mentioned before, Wrath of the Titans and The Lucky One each closed at the end of its 13th week - and we can add Cabin in the Woods and The Woman in Black to that list.
90 days 23 hours 3 minutes 23 seconds since the Depp/Burton Dark Shadows has been in release(ET)!!
