Aren't we all really just biding our time until The Matrix Reloaded? Thursday can't get here fast enough. But let's get on with the one new release this weekend.
X-Men had a Friday-to-Friday decline of 65.6%, which translated into a second weekend drop of 57%. So, there's a slight improvement with the sequel, which is pretty good given the larger number. Using this info, we'll give X2 a total weekend drop of 53.6%, so Wolverine and company end up with $39.7 million, which puts X2 just under $150 million after 10 days.
Oh, and Lizzie McGuire falls 61.7%, but she should be a little bit more resilient than the mutants over the rest of the weekend. Call it $8 million for the weekend.
