'T3's' five-day number becomes the largest July Fourth opening of any R rated movie, ... The highest grossing July Fourth movie was 'Terminator 2' (with) a five-day gross of $52 million. We exceeded that by 40 percent (and are) very, very pleased with that opening. |

As the audience has gotten older in time, faithful readers of the Potter books will remain faithful to the movies, |
By Wednesday, we'll pass the largest R-rated movie ever, which was 'Beverly Hills Cop' with $234 million. We're opening 39 IMAX runs this week. The picture looks sensational and I think we'll get our core fans to come back and reload this weekend. |

I think this is going to be a test for the studios, |
I was very pleased with the opening. It exceeded our expectations. |
I'm very pleased with (the opening) considering what's going on in the world. I believe that certainly part of our potential audience was lost to war coverage. We have a movie that appeals primarily to young males and older males and I think that's the audience that spends more time watching (war) coverage. But, hopefully, we'll recapture that group sometime during the week or maybe next weekend. |
I'm very pleased, ... It looks like the whole weekend was impacted by the ballgames (the World Series began Saturday night). The exits were terrific. We have an older audience and I think we all were affected by the ballgames. We're there for the long run. We've got great exits and great reviews and we'll just keep playing. |

I've been telling people for a long time that I think it's content-driven. I don't think we had a film that jumped out for people this weekend, ... North Country. |
It's a full play for those who enjoy martial arts movies, |
It's a tough day today. Everybody is going to really take it on the chin. |
Joel Silver continues to deliver number one openings for Warner Bros.. This the eighth number one opening for Joel out of his last 10 pictures for the studio. With 'Matrix Reloaded' (May 15) and 'Matrix Revolutions'(Nov. 7) both going this year, he'll definitely extend that impressive record. |
Motion picture history was made this weekend. The first four days of 'Reloaded' exceeded the previous best four consecutive days ever on a motion picture, which happened to be 'Spider-Man' (with) $125.8 million. |
