    Hoppers:

    Hoppers hits $674k in pre-sales for tomorrow. A pretty meh last day of pre-sales. However the weekend should still be strong.

    The movie is projected a $2.66M-2.80M opening day on Friday into a $12.5-13M opening weekend.

    Total projections start at $17-22M. Which to me feels incredibly low if the opening actually ends up as high as its projected.

      Looks good for PHM, right? On the high end or slightly higher than the estimation from yesterday for opening day. Is the WOM good?
