Saturday Update
Fox's spoof comedy Date Movie opened at number one on Friday kicking off the four-day Presidents' Day holiday weekend with an estimated $6.7M in its first day of release. Over the long Friday-to-Monday span, the PG-13 pic might collect $24-27M.
Also debuting impressively was Disney's adventure tale Eight Below which took in an estimated $5M on Friday for second place. In previous years, family films opening on this holiday frame have done about 22% of their four-day bows on Friday. Eight Below could play out in similar fashion and gross $21-23M over the long weekend.
Not faring as well as the two big openers was the crime thriller Freedomland which collected an estimated $1.8M on Friday, its first day of release. The Samuel L. Jackson-Julianne Moore drama might give Sony $6-8M over four days.
Among sophomore holdovers, Friday-to-Friday declines were 30% for The Pink Panther, 60% for Final Destination 3, 35% for Curious George, and 46% for Firewall.
The top ten films grossed an estimated $28.8M on Friday which was down 15% from a year ago when Constantine opened on top with $11.5M on its way to a $33.6M weekend launch which put it in second place behind Hitch's $36.7M.
