Here is a link to the weekend estimates. It looks as though District 9 over performed and had a great opening weekend. While GIJOE dropped the usual percentage (sigh) and will almost assuredly not make its money back domestically. GIJOE will probably not top $150 million domestically but worldwide will definitely cover the difference and DVD sales will most likely be massive.
This will probably lead to a smaller budget for the sequel... Weekend Box Office Results for August 1416, 2009 G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)

I agree about the smaller budget, but then again, look what they did with District 9 and it's budget was less that G.I.Joe ... I fully believe they can make a hell of a good Joe movie on less than 175 million.

I just hope this movie makes enough to make back its budget.

Huh, surprising that it's expected to have a far better Saturday/Sunday than Time Traveler's Wife.

I think it will about break even domestically speaking, but the international sales will be fairly decent. The sequel should be better managed budget wise. I am also curious to see all the current merchandise sales results.
This movie does have a good chance of making a profit indirectly because of the product tie-ins…
