history. I don't care that it isn't the top movie of the day or the weekend.What we're seeing is not a somewhat disappointing series finale for the 19-year-old Fantastic Four
A 2.5x multiplier from a $14 million opening day would be $35 million for the weekend, which would be around $21 million back in 2000 .
