  1. 'Quantum of Solace' UK Opening Weekend Estimates

    By Devin Zydel on 2008-10-31

    With Quantum of Solace opening in theatres all throughout the UK today, predictions for that all important first weekend at the box office are coming in.

    According to Variety, bookers are predicting that the 22nd James Bond film will haul in £13 million pounds (about $21 million) between Friday and Saturday.

    This total would place it roughly alongside Daniel Craig’s 007 debut, Casino Royale, which took in £13.49 million during its opening weekend in the UK two years ago.

    As expected with each new Bond film, expectations are high for Quantum of Solace. The film has had extremely strong advance ticket sales and received an extra publicity boost thanks to its royal world premiere in London’s Leicester Square two days ago.

    CommanderBond.net will be tracking all the box office numbers as Quantum continues to debut around the world in the upcoming weeks. Stay tuned.
