>Really? The biggest (or most-hyped) movie going into the weekend was Bridesmaids, and I don't think many people thought it had all *that* much of a chance against the second week of >Thor. As it is, both films did a lot better over the weekend than their Friday grosses would have indicated. (Thor dropped something like 65% between its first and second Fridays, but only 50% >when you compare the weekends as a whole. And a lot of people expected Bridesmaids to >stay well under $20 million, not over.)
Oh yeah... I saw some real gloating when the news about the 65% drop came in. Devin from Chud was positively estatic. And on Sunday he was all gripes. It was not enough that Bridesmaids beat it's own expectations (and has gotten a lot of praise)... it really seemed to bug him that in spite of the 65% drop for Friday, Thor continued to have success.
He seemed quite bitter that Bridesmaid did not take the number one spot.
