See people in Syria don't care for Bond.
Possibly grossing in excess of $575 million. Oh my. And who said it was going to flop big time? "Now the whole world's gonna know that you died scratching my balls"

Yes, wasn't a certain Mr. Gravity's Silhouette predicting a $27million opening in the US? Only out by 50%
 Nice to see CR, deservedly, #1 in the world and on course to surpass DAD.

In a related note, every time the kiddies go back to school, CR seems to surge ahead of HF in the US (I know this really irrelevant now, but in case anyone's still paying attention). Monday was a predictably slow day at the box-office here in the States, but CR was #1 with $1.7 mil to HF's $1.3. It's still about $5 mil behind HF for total domestic gross, but it gains ground each weekday. Ultimately, they will likely finish neck-and-neck with one another in U.S. receipts... unless CR can hang in there against rather modest competition (BLOOD DIAMOND, TURISTAS, VAN WILDER 2) until the 15th, when HF figures to lose a huge chunk of its demographic to ERAGON and CHARLOTTE'S WEB.

Just for the record, my final predictions as of mid-October were:
Domestic opening weekend: $40 million Domestic total: $160 million Worldwide total: $530 million The key point is that I expected CR to start higher than GoldenEye but lower than DAD, and make 10-15% less in the States than the latter, but last longer (for an opening weekend to total ratio of 25%), a la GE or TLD. I also predicted it would clean house overseas with a foreign to worldwide ratio of 70% (on par with GE, and higher than the other Brosnans, but lower than the likes of LALD or LTK). So far, that means I called the domestic opening weekend fairly accurately, and my other totals may not be off by much. I still think $160 million domestic is a little bit of a reach (but nothing too big), but more importantly, it now seems that it may turn out that I underestimated its worldwide potential, even with one of the more ambitious predictions I've seen on this site. But don't get me wrong, I think that's a good thing.

I've noticed in other threads that you are pretty savvy when it comes to box office, going into detail about inflation, admissions etc... and now your predictions for CR appear to be right on the money. Consequently, I bestow on you the title of "Captain Box Office"; you can now use it after your name on letterheads etc |

I'm quite staggered by how well CR is doing. I thought it would do reasonably well at the box office but not as well as this. I predicted CR might equal some of the lesser performing Brosnan entries but fall short of DAD. How wrong I was.
CR deserves these figures though. In terms of quality it is in the higher bracket of 007 films. "He's my new anchor man!"
