I try to avoid opening day-weekend. Too many people. And not to sound cynical, but large groups of people are targets for crazy folks. I know it's not likely, but why risk it? It's not like I'm missing out on a once in a lifetime opportunity by going early. It's not like if I wait until week two there won't be any showtimes. I'm not that impatient. I'll minimize risk and frustration and shoot for a matinee showing if possible.
