Are those the midnight showing results? Meaning Thursday night going into Friday. I'm pretty sure he said (nation). We were having a meeting of about 13 people in a small room. And he announced it making it very clear.

With its opening Saturday gross being lower than its opening Friday gross I think we can expect a major fall-off in business for this one. I haven't seen it yet myself so can't comment on quality but its certainly not looking to be a blockbuster.

being a small theater in a small town, we usually do not sell out. But we have been doing quite well, for a crapy movie, I think next week it will die down becuae the people that have not seen well know not to waste there time or money

I shagree...The big unfold of the secret came too soon. The biggest problem was the lack of substance after the middle of the movie and the fact that everyone going in expects to see a scary movie and there's only a couple suspenseful scenes.
What's up with that?

You may very well be right. Midnight showings are reported as part of Friday's grosses. I can not separate using my source. I'm sure your DM has the information available. Sorry I didn't understand what you were saying.
