Off the charts in three weeks. That's pretty quick isn't it?

Hehhehe. 20th Century Boys II earned 28 million before it fell off the chart.

DB:E only earned 7 mil.

Yes it is. It was a movie that gained that amount of money because of hype, most likely. I can only predict how it will do in America.

And.... Yatterman is still on top.

I work in a movie theater as a manager, and thus get to see a lot of numbers not released to the public. While I can't give out anything concrete, I can say that it is expected to flop. Big time.

People on other boards are claiming that it's tracking at about $6 million for the entire weekend. I'm not believing that, yet, but I didn't believe it either when they said that Speed Racer was only tracking about $19 million opening weekend, and that one was dead accurate.

The movie theater near me (heck even the big one up the road in Roanoke) STILL doesn't have any times posted for Dragonball. They've had Hannah Montana times posted for at least a week (first time I looked to check). They have since posted times for Observe and Report.
