If it really did make $7.8m on Friday, it's not reaching $27m for the weekend. I hope she is underestimating it. Last week she overestimated it.

Schmucks is clearly having an impact on Inception's core demographic, males aged 15-35.

Hey, don't be sad. An original movie getting 2 number 1's in a row is good.

Dinner for Schmucks is doing better than what i expected. But a 35ish per cent drop is still good, right? It would be nice if some of the Nolan Fans in the USA could do their bit to help boost Inception's weekend box office. ;-)

LATEST UPDATE:

Friday actual figure for Dinner For Schmucks was overestimated in the previous update by Nikki Finke.
It grossed 8.5M on Friday instead of the 10M previously estimated.

So with a Friday gross of 7.8M, Inception is set to make around 25M this weekend. Will be number 1. (again)
