'Fault in Our Stars' opens to $48.2m, not bad for a film fueled almost entirely by girls and younger women

3rd UPDATE, SATURDAY, 11:00 PM: After a Saturday slide of around 53%, The Fault in Our Stars is expected to gross about $12.3M tonight to bring its estimate down to around $48M for the three-day weekend. Still sitting pretty fantastic for a film that the studio said cost around $12M. It’s already break-even and will be a profitable film for Fox. Disney’s Maleficent remains in a strong second with around $13.45M Saturday for an expected $33M+ weekend (down about 52% from last weekend).
That brings us to Edge of Tomorrow from Warner Bros. which was flat Saturday with roughly $10.6M which means it’s not gonna crack $30M, more like $27M to $28M.
Despite amazing reviews, mainstream crowds found #EdgeOfTomorrow to be just ok. B+ CinemaScore. SAT down 1%.
