I honestly though Observe and Report had a very good chance of opening 20+, but that is a discouraging number, and after having JUST seen the trailer i can see why a little bit.

Not a big fan of what i've seen so far.

Hopefully Dragonball opens even smaller than that. I want it to crash, burn, then burn some more.

I think the $6 million number is being generous. I see opening similar to the recent Street Fighter movie (about $4 million but with a much lower per-theatre average).

I hope Observe & Report does well, even though I know it won't.

I see it like this:

1 - Fast & Furious - $34 mill

2 - Hannah Montana - $25 mill

3 - Observe & Report - $17 mill

4 - MvA - $15 mill

5 - Dragonball - $7 mill

Very true. After the 4th Fast & Furious movie has a bigger OW than Watchmen and Quantum of Solace (and biggest of the year) and the Kevin James mall cop movie making almost $150 million, predictions are futile.

Watch 17 Again get an OW of $50 million and a total of $250 mill....

I predicted it. Maybe not the exact number, but I said a long while ago that this title would be WELL worth it. My reasoning at the time is that if it didn't do well, the floor was $90 M.

I wouldn't put Hannah Montana down too far. The Jonas Brothers situation is going to cause many to underestimate it, but I still feel this can open around 30-35 million.

Fast and Furious is going to be a very interesting one to watch. It could be very front loaded but it seems to have positive word of mouth. It has an IMDB of 7.2 and a Cinemascore of an A. Its 19% fall from friday to saturday is large but not disasterous for a movie like this. It also brought in a 5.1 million monday...in April. That puts it on pace for a an opening week close to 90 million. With easter weekend helping to soften the fall, tons of news coverage, and decent word of mouth this could stay above 30million which would be quite an accomplishment.

Observe and Report would likely open over 20 million were it not for the Fast and Furious taking away much of the audience. Both Seth Rogen and Anna Farris have shown decent drawing power so it should end up with a 15-20 million opening weekend.

As for Dragonball Z, it is even bombing in asian markets. This one is going to end up in the same range as Street Fighter.

and that hefty fuckin fee is a buck o five and if you dont pay your buck o five who will. Smile anyway Observe and Report should be good for 18-20 mill weekend its getting good advertising and the trailer has getting a pretty good reaction. Dragonball will tank hard i see it doing a little bit better than Street Fighter. Unsure about Hannah Montana it could go either way.

I seriously doubt Obsessed will open that high. If you look at the disclaimer, it says that others have it much lower than that.

Observe and Report will be above 20 million. Seth Rogen is a star and the advertising has been through the roof. also, God damn how in the hell can Obsessed be tracking that high? I mean, sure it is good for its current price but no fuckin way it comes close to those numbers.

Because RS that far out is useless.

You really think MvA is going to have that big of a drop?

And I think Dragonball Evolution will do OK, since it is being marketed pretty heavily to kids. $7-9 million

I have been saying this for over a month, maybe two. It's my next "I called it!" selection. Ali Larter and Beyonce in a movie-long catfight should peak many people's interest...

I saw an early screening of Observe and Report last night, and even if it opens decent money, I'm not sure it'll have far reaching appeal. I don't think it will be a huge success, probably slightly bigger than Rogan's last film Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Perhaps I'm saying this though because I thought Z&M was going to be pretty big.

On a side note, the film was alright. I don't know if there was enough humour in the film to sustain a larger audience expecting to have laugh after laugh (or at least, that's what most expect from Rogan/fake Apatow films I think) - it was more a character study mixed in with some humour. The writing was the highlight of the film, I was intrigued by the central character and his actions, and perhaps would have enjoyed a drama more than a comedy about him.

Also, I haven't even seen a trailer for Obsessed, how can it be tracking so damn high? I may just have to pick it up on a few slates.

i'll bet eight gajillion dollars that O&R does way better than Z&M... kevin smith is box office poison


edit: damn, i hate when people make super fuckin VAGUE predictions and then act like they knew what's up when it sorta comes true.. i'll say $46M when things are all said and done.. (that's 150% the dough Z&M brought in..)

I agree with you on that NSpan, but not because of Kevin Smith, more because this one isn't about people making a porno. Its about a mall cop. Mall cops are big right now.

Obsessed reminds me more of a lesser version of Lakeview Terrace (which made $40 million last September). But that may be because of the same writer and studio.

I'd say $25 million total.

Ali Larter wants to do it with Beyonce's man. Beyonce wants to kick her ass. Basically that's it. I've seen a good amount of previews on tv for over a month now.

BTW: I don't know what this movie will do, but I was predicting at least $40-50 M and I do think it could be a breakout from no where smash. When I say "I called it", I mean that there's no way that a film isn't going to be worth its price tag.
