[BizarroAids]

Is there an estimate of when TDK will hit $500 mill domestically?? And how much longer does it have in it's theatrical run to add to it's box office total??

 

[odiin]

This weekend, and even if not it will only be a few days more after that.

 

[Nightmare]

Galactus, can you post weekend totals too?

 

[BizarroAids]

This weekend, and even if not it will only be a few days more after that.

So most box office sites are thinking that with the holiday weekend we'll have a pretty good turn out for it's 6th week?? 10 million tops???

10 million or a little more. Box Office Report is predicting as much as 12,5 for the four-day weekend.

Oh, nice. That's an opening weekend for a modest comedy or somethin like that. Good to still it's got fire.

How long is the theatrical release considered for a movie like this?? I mean to say. How much longer will this movie make money to add to it's box office?

Hard to say. It will probably end its run sometime this fall. But it's possible that TDK will be re-released in time for the Oscars if the movie get the nominations a lot of people think it deserves.
