I didn’t miss the opening, did I?

No you didn't. We have now entered the realm of precognition. The box office success of a movie is predicted weeks before opening and movies that will not perform well won't even start at the theatres in the future.

Also known as the stock market.

Although they at least have advanced ticket sales to get a rough estimate, although they're also extrapolating way beyond that, so still precognition.

Sure, but is this news worthy? Are we getting "The next Avatar movie's first weekend estimations that are coming out next week are to be expected to be bonkers" next year?

Seems optimistic.

I spent my movie going money on a RAM stick to share with my neighbor.
