#1 movie predicted correctly: Zero weeks in a row
You’ve got to like its chances given it’s lined up against some real dogs. The R rating hurts it about $7m and the horrible trailers another couple million. But the clips actually don’t look that awful. The people will come.
Estimate: $23.9 million
I have a healthy hate for this film. As such it’s hard for me to be reasonable about it. But it did get a 29% on RottenTomatoes. So at least my emotion is based on some sort of global logic.
Estimate: $12.8 million
Oh it’s rising all right. I will say that I don’t get a world where this gets beaten by something absurd like The Game Plan. It’s better than that. We’re better than that. Let’s do better guys.
Estimate: $9.7 million
4. The Kingdom
You got me world, good one. Here I thought a cool movie with a bit of depth would be singled out for financial gain. I am one silly bastard.
Estimate: $8.6 million
This is a difficult one to estimate because I know nada about it. Did they screen it? Perhaps. Have you seen an ad for it? I gotta say no. I watch a ton of the tele and I’ve heard neither hide nor hair.
Estimate: $5.2 million
If zombie crows do exist, and I’m not ruling it out, would their poo be even worse than normal? We’ve hit a new low!
Estimate: $3.1 million
Dane Cook is now doing ads for the MLB playoffs. I think they figure that makes them cool. Man, I wish I could steal money like that guy.
Estimate: $2.8 million
8. 3:10 to Yuma
My sources indicate that there won’t be a sequel. Can’t win them all.
Estimate: $2.7 million
The ending is violent, I will hand them that. The rest of the movie is average but they do send it all out in a hail of gunfire. It seems as though that lesson has been missed by movies lately.
Estimate: $1.9 million
10. Mr. Woodcock
This last slot is between around four movies. Something like Feel the Noise could creep in the back door. And that’s fine. At $1.6m this is all dartboard style anyway.
Estimate: $1.6 million
