Reading the numbers with care

These figures come from a daily chart. Charts of this kind often rely on studio estimates that can be revised once final numbers arrive, so the totals above may change. This article draws on a single source and could not check the figures against studio statements or other trade reports. It also cannot say how the reported total compares with industry forecasts for Verity. Readers wanting the official weekend ranking should check the final tallies when they are published.

The daily drops shown for most titles, between roughly 23 and 40 percent from Saturday to Sunday, are typical of the weekend pattern. The Numbers’ chart also shows several films from the preceding weeks still earning above $2 million in a single day, which suggests a crowded market of titles aimed at different audiences.

For now, the data point to a clear lead for Verity in its opening days, with Resident Evil continuing as the strongest of the earlier releases. Whether the film holds its position next weekend will depend on how quickly its audience falls off after the opening.
