The game isn’t over yet, but ‘The Forbidden Kingdom’ already scored one point this Friday, doing an estimated $7.6 million at 3,151 theaters — that’s $2,400 per screen.
‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ wasn’t far behind, with $5.9 million at 2,798 screens. But if we do the math, we see it’s already doing less per screen. $2100 to be exact.
It still did a lot better than Al Pacino though. His ‘88 Minutes’ only did $2.3 million for the day. But nobody wasn’t expecting that one to do big numbers anyway. Too bad for its $30 million budget.
[update]
The fight has been fought, it’s over. ‘The Forbidden Kingdom’ just won the weekend with an estimated $20.9 million. ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’ still managed to make a respectable $17.3 million. Both exceeded most expectations.
Last week’s number one, ‘Prom Night,’ came in third with $9.1 million, making for a total of $32.6 million in the first 10 days.
