Naked picture bet? Lecter never agreed to it for MI3 because he didn't want to see me naked or whatever.

Seriously, we could have the winner pick a movie to watch for the loser.
Nude bet I'd do for over/under 160m.

Well, not really high OW, but large majority way overpredicted it.
It will happen again, with Pirates.

You don't want to see me with clothes on, let alone naked. I'll make an avatar bet. If I win, you'll become a Serenity advertisement

So, what will it be? For a Week? Month?
Being a Serentity advertisment is like death itself, but I have nothing to lose with this bet. Of course Matrix avatar for me. Unless you agree to a nude pic of me.

Redspear's prediction is just as unrealistic as DP07's. DP07 is just a bit more insane and loony, that's all.

Since there are no signs that point to a sub-$100m weekend.

K so if HP4 barely cracked 100 million and this is performing just below that means it can't possible be below 100 million for the weekend
But it is pefroming a little better then I thought. But 113 is still safe.

1) The first one only opened to a modestly high but not huge amount. Even opening to 80m opening weekend would be much better.
2) The running time is long, limiting showings
3) American women have gotten over their Bloom-mania
I'm ready with my excuses!
