I'm really disappointed with those Sherlock Holmes numbers...It's a far cry from the first's OW ( $62.3M).



Stefan.De.Machtige on 18 December 2011

Ghost protocol did really good.

Tom cruise proves still to be bankable. I was under the impression that his starpower was fading. He proved me wrong here.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

Disappointing numbers for Sherlock Holmes and Alvin.
Very good numbers for Mission Impossible.

OH! I did not realize it was only on 425 screens. Why in the world is that?  30,000 a theater!

425

 

As for Sherlock it just did not look as good as the first one in the trailer, and what is with the millions of outfits? I will still see it, and everything right now will only get better now that schools out in American and it is the holidays. They will all do wonderful, I hope M.I 4 can keep u p the pace and do better than last time. 3 Was great!

IMAX exclusive.

From BoxOfficeMojo:

"In the first release of its kind, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol is opening exclusively at IMAX and select theaters this weekend ahead of its nationwide debut on Wednesday. Directed by Brad Bird (The Incredibles,Ratatouille), the movie has roughly 30 minutes of footage in the IMAX format, including a heavily-promoted sequence that finds star Tom Cruise scaling the tallest building in the world (the Burj Khalifa in Dubai). It's pretty clear that the entire IMAX strategy is meant to reinvigorate a franchise that took a big hit with its last entry:Mission: Impossible III opened to $47.7 million before finishing with $134 million back in May 2006, which was way off from Mission: Impossible II's $215.4 million. Aside from the addition of IMAX, the movie appears to hew closely to the previous entries, with the "mission goes wrong, blame is placed on Ethan Hunt" plot being oddly reminiscent of the first Mission: Impossible. "

I guess TDKR may have helped Ghost Protocol significantly.
