Disappointing Turnout
Well, I showed up an hour early Friday night (7:30) so I could get a good spot in the queue. We were the only ones in line. When the 4:30 showing let out, about a dozen and a half people trickled out. For the Friday night prime showing, I counted about 30 people there.
According to BoxOfficeMojo, "The Steven Spielberg classic grossed an estimated $1.73 million, which translates to a $6,461 per-theater average. That's a little underwhelming (Titanic 3D had essentially the same opening average in 10 times as many locations), but it shouldn't be entirely surprising considering there wasn't any significant marketing push."

I am glad that I only wore regular clothes and my fedora, not full gear. That would have been...odd.
Now I'm wondering if there will be a good turnout for the marathon or not. It's a one-day deal, not all week. But it's also 25 bucks and a full day commitment. I guess we shall see.
