In the note
They had the usual Thursday opening day that should outperform the industry norm of about 10% of the opening weekend (normal for this genre), and they should end up with a weekend just short of the teens. Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim - Although this Anime LOTR prequel with the secret handshake title (that acts like a tag along repellant) isn’t going to make much of a dent in the box-office, it does tell us a lot (again) about branding and IP.
