The Hollywood Reporter has preliminary Friday numbers suggesting that BREAKING DAWN PART 1 will gross $65-75M for the day, including $30.3M in Thursday midnight showings. Even at the high-end, that would make Breaking Dawn more front-loaded with midnight viewers than its November 2009 predecessor New Moon, which made $72.7M on its opening Friday, of which $26.8M was attributable to midnight shows.
New Moon ended up with a $142.8M opening weekend. Do the Friday figures for Breaking Dawn suggest something potentially lower? (The Reporter says Friday matinee business was slightly behind New Moon, but was picking up in the evening.) We'll know more in a few hours...
