    Right... early doors guesses this week, based on absolutely no science or understanding whatsoever

    Halloween Again - $66.6m (someone's gotta do the demon digits)

    Whatever the other unlucky bugger of a film competing with Halloween for box office dollars is - $6.66m

    I look forward to being disappointed again next week! :D

    I think these were previews. I've checked three websites and all of them state today as the premiere date. TIme for the part that actually matters here:
    Halloween - $68 million
    The Hate U GIve - $6.9 million



    I'm sorry. :D

    Halloween opening weekend results: $ 76,221,545
    1. @Lock_S_Foils - ($73.1m)
    2. @RockyRoadHux - ($73m)
    3. @NinjaRen - ($71m)

    The Hate U Give opening weekend results: $ 7,602,108
    1. @RockyRoadHux - ($7.51m) -- nailed it!
    2. @NinjaRen - ($7.5m)
    3. @Lock_S_Foils - ($7.1m)

    I didn't realize it was a limited release before, but yes, this weekend was the Wide Release which we usually try to stick to for guessing.
    It really shouldn't change anything for guessing purposes.

    Movies Opening October 26th:
    I do want to point out that this is the US Domestic opening for Johnny English. It's been out on the foreign market for a bit of time now, but its tour is finally coming stateside this weekend. Since the info is out there, it seems only fair that I let you know what it's done so far (link).
