Even when done by an inflation calculator? I think not. What makes you say that?
Twilight won’t really detract from Bond in the long run as they play to entirely different audiences. The release of Breaking Dawn Part 2 this weekend will however take a serious bite out of SF's profits this weekend, but film's always drop in their second weeks its jsut unfortunate it had to be Twilight opening today, with SF's good-word-of-mouth and strong reviews it could have sustained its postions well.
QOS had a disappointing second weekend back in 2008 in the States. QOS fell 60.4% compared to its first weekend. CR held on much better: Second weekend drop of only 24.6%, but then again the first weekend opening for CR was a bit tame.

It can be done - if analysts are predicting $800m worldwide from Skyfall, that may just be enough to put Breaking Dawn 2 in second place. (The highest grossing Twilight film sits at just over $700m.) Skyfall will IN NO WAY beat Twilight in the United States, but one can hope it can come out on top from the world's help.
Please, oh please.
Did anyone get the file name that M throws down on his table, is that the new Bond 24 film title?
I don;t think "Top Secret" would a very good title for B24!
Well, last week Deadline estimates were accurate so they are probably right this week too. They say it dropped 65%...it's a huge drop, it will need to regain in the next weeks, otherwise it will be impossible to reach 200m.
What will the International take be this weekend? Last week was $89 million, so maybe just under $70 million? Or lower? $800 million may be in the bag but $900 million is still going to be a push to reach. Looking good so far, though.
