It’s our third entry for our Facebook Movie Watch, where we see if movies drive the likes or the likes indicate the buzz a movie has.  Thor held onto the top spot in the theaters this past week and Priest opened as expected.  Below are the new counts and how much they moved.

There was a definite slow down for Thor as far as growth in it’s second week.  I’d imagine we’ll see a build up leading up to the movie, a huge gain the week of it’s opening and then a drop off in the week after opening.  We’ll see if the other movies follow this pattern.  The other interesting thing to watch is the overall grades the audiences give the movie compared to their growth.

Thor – Opens in the United States May 6, already released globally.
