If it holds true, that is great news for all Joe fans whether they liked the movie or not.
If this movie were to flop, I'd be afraid for the future of the brand for a while. Strong ticket sales plus strong toy sales just means more Joe for everyone. Just look at what box office success has meant for Transformers.

I want to see that movie too. You're right though, I can see a 40-50% drop by next week.

District 9 is definitely going to hurt sales. But they're getting my $8 this afternoon.

Joy, that means there will be another movie...
Seriously though, if they do do another movie, they need to make some drastic changes.
