>That figure's more impressive when you factor in that it was all in one showing on Saturday afternoon and one on Monday evening. "Catching Fire" played all weekend and with multiple showtimes. The EW article wasn't clear that it was measuring Monday-only box office, and it also mentioned that the American theaters hosting the Saturday viewing tallied $204,000. (In the UK, the $2.9M Saturday gross placed it third for the entire weekend behind Katniss and "Gravity".) *1 In the US Monday, "Catching Fire" pulled in $12.3M, while the "Thor" sequel (#3) brought in $1.4M. *2 And, at least at my local cineplex, there were two Monday-night viewings on two screens -- 7:30 and 10 in both 3D and 2D.
