Yeah, I saw the three Chicago preview screenings (thus, there goes my 30 dollars), tuesday night's blogger screening, private showing at my theatre tonight, midnight show I put together thursday night, and obviously the opening shows.
Shiny!

This movie is great (and even better on third viewing!) and should be seen by millions around the world but if this is representative of Australia's response, it is gone!
*sob*
On the other hand I am going to see it again so maybe tomorrow's crowd will be better.

And really, it's only going to be people that really want to see it that would have gone to the midnight session. :)
And I forgot to mention in my original post that I have seen it before, at the Broadway pre-screening earlier this month. :)

(However, they haven't got to the late night screening reports yet)

Exactly. You can't expect the middle of the day on Thursday to sell out - even if it is school holidays in some states.
Taking some "Firefly" newbies to a screening tomorrow night - which is my third viewing of the film.

Everyone laughed at the right places, and the shock at one particular point was palpable, so I think they were mostly newbies.
No Joss message before our screening.
Can't wait for the opening weekend box office figures. I'm gonna be on tenterhooks...
And fifth viewing? Still picking up so much new stuff.

I'm so frustrated, but love feeding of the excitement of all of you.
( djungelurban : Did you make it to the Lund festival?)

Still, as others have mentioned, it is a weeknight.

I work at a theatre, and even sometimes (actually, a lot of times) when a movie does poorly at our place (20-25 people in even the night time shows) it means almost nothing to the overall box office. It is all demographics and the people who just happen to live by certain theatres that want to see something more than others that live elsewhere. And again, it is a thursday people. Coming from America, I know that movies do not do that well (save for Star Wars) when they don't open on a weekend compared to their opening weekend. So no worries, we'll all know tomorrow. :)
