I missed this Nikki Finke update earlier today: Superbad finished the weekend with $33 million, not $31.2 million or $31.4 million (per Josh Friedman and Len Klady, respectively), for the weekend. An “exceptional hold,” down only about 2% from Saturday, etc.
Superbad is now a strong candidate to earn $100 million. It’s a safe bet to earn a little north of $10 million between today and Thursday, and with all the so-so movies debuting next weekend it could do another $22 to $23 million (perhaps a bit higher), which would give it a cume as high as $67 or $68 million by next Sunday night.
