Cool news, Frank. I’m glad Fantastic Four 2 got the number 1 spot - that was a fun movie.
Oddly enough, the box office estimates I watching were all over the place. Intial estimates were in the 45M range as the weekend began, but analysts then began to consider the low ranking trend of last weekend, and predicted a flop - 22M - before the returns finally revealed a solid 57M in the works.
