This is amazing! The only film in the top ten to post a increase over last weekend.

Dan, Where dose the 3.7 million figure come from? The reason I ask is the exhibitor relations day by day gross do not equal 3.7 million . Do they adjust these figures after a few days?

-- MICHAEL PITT (XRRG10B@PRODIGY.COM), May 26, 1998.

I have no idea. They usually adjust the numbers by Tuesday, but I also believe that Monday was included in the weekend, as it was a "long weekend."

Of course, we could look at it this way: 113 people go to see a movie. 55 of them see "Godzilla", 19 of them see "Deep Impact", etc. And 4 of 113 opt for "Titanic" (about 3.5%). Not really THAT amazing.

...Unless they keep doing it after 5 months...
