Potter's Wednesday numbers were amazing. At $44.2m, it's the largest Wednesday opening ever and bigger than the four previous Potter starts.

It only made $18.2m on Thursday, putting it a couple million behind Spidey 2. Should be interesting to see what happens this weekend. Estimates are all over the place. The Spidey-2 comparison works because it's a major Wednesday opener...but it opened on a Wednesday before a July 4th weekend where the 4th fell on a Sunday, so you'd expect its Thursday numbers to be higher and its Fri-Sun numbers to be slightly lower, I think.
God, why do I even try!?!?! I suck at guessing these box offices. It is fun though, I have to admit. I never enjoyed being so surprised by my awfulness at something before. Plus, the summer is not over. I could still pull a rabbit out of my hat and that rabbit could be wearing some Hairspray!
"that rabbit could be wearing some Hairspray!"
LOL!
That's a great line.
