Do you mean the weekend of May 30 - June 1, 2008 (three days)?
Is this for the USA and Canada? ("General Release" as per HD definitions.)
Any information available for the number of theaters that each film will be shown in?
For consistency with HD guidelines, should the Suspend Date be changed to 5pm PST on May 30th?
Settlement source ought be Nielson EDI.
USA figures only (unless specifically mentioned in the title)
Sex should be 3100+ theaters.. Indiana was 4200 this week, but I'm not sure what the dropoff will be.
All the major movie websites refer back to the same Nielson data (boxofficemojo, the-numbers, imdb, etc) so settlement shouldn't be too tricky.
Agreed the suspend date should be pushed back a few hours as per the good question guide. Have flagged for edit.
Anyway, this article may not help since it starts at Thursday and counts through the typical 3-day weekend.
1 Sex and the City $55,740,000
2 Indiana Jones $46,000,000
