I am kind of with Troynos on this one. Unlike Troynos, I am a professed ROC hater, but even I don't see the lack of turnout at a midnight showing as an indicator of how well the movie will do this weekend. Despite the low turnout at some midnight showings (not all...some), I will be very surprised if this movie does not come in at #1 and earn at least $50-$70 million for the weekend. That just seems to be the usual take for most movies like this on their opening weekend. Personally, I think we should all hold off on saying anything about the movies' success or failure until Monday morning when the box office tallies are released.

The theatre that got G.I. Joe in town doesn't do midnight openings. It's sad too because at work, everyone asked me if the theatre was going to have a midnight opening.

My theater played it at midnight about 30 people I would say, the Midnight showing of Transformers 2 had two theaters packed but the showing of Star Trek had less than Gi Joe so it's hard to say. Oh yeah I thought the movie was awesome not the Gi Joe from my childhood but still awesome.

Our theater was about 90-95% full and I have no idea how many screens it was on.

I was surprised our little town had a midnite showing. No idea how many were there since I had to work today and my son is only 9.

I was disappointed. After hyping up the "midnight showing experience", my theater in Mesa, AZ was (maybe- and being nice) half full. Nothing like the 3 star wars, batman and superman 12s I've been to. I loved the movie though.
