What a silly line of thinking. PEOPLE CAN SEE MORE THAN ONE MOVIE. And Cars 2 succeeding (one week later) does not prevent this from carving out an audience of its own.

People will skip Mr. Popper's Penguins in favor of Happy Feet 2 :P.

So you mean to say that $100m worth of people will not see movies since Cars 2 is releasing in coming weeks ?

Haven't penguins gone out of style?

I like Jim Carrey but the movie looks so 90s type of humour.

I think an OW in the high teens is likely or at most something like 24m.

^ Monte Carlo looks low. It would be nice if Bad Teacher and Larry Crowne could actually hit those numbers.

Yeah, Monte Carlo should do better than that. Selena Gomez is pretty popular.

Agreed, I think it can at least match Soul Surfer's numbers.

That's quite a plunge for Penguins, which is generally a bad sign, right?

Looks like the lowballing on Penguins wasn't so far fetched afterall. Carrey's name isn't nearly as strong as it used to be and last time I checked his last so called family flick was severly overestimated from early tracking aswell.

Carrey is bound to have a family miss eventually. Wasn't too smart to schedule this right before Cars 2.

I don't know. Trailer wasn't impressive. Though I'd think it would do more like 11-12 Million 4-Day.

Gomez has her fans. I would say she is more popular than Miley Cyrus right now, of course her popularity has plummeted.

I always forget who Selena Gomez is. I can vaguely picture her face, but I couldn't tell you anything she's been in (movie, TV show) or any song titles. Although according to Libs one is called "Who Says."

Strange to hear she's more popular than Miley Cyrus.

Well Miley has begun pulling a Britney Spears so that is why. I don't think Gomez is the most popular actress her age. I think Miranda Cosgrove is more popular.

I wouldn't be shocked, the last film was hated and the marketing hasn't been very good so far. However, that could improve in the coming weeks.

I wouldn't worry about Transformers. People thought that Transformers 2 was going to disappoint literally up until the first midnight numbers came out because the marketing wasn't strong and awareness/hype was supposedly low. Look what happened.

You can also remember her as the possible object of hatred for millions of 12 year old girls since she's dating the Biebs.

There is a big difference in WOM between 1st and 2nd films. Also we have seen what 3D does to sequels. Especially ones coming in with meh WOM.

Penguins is like Prince Caspian's release all over again. Seems like the perfect movie to open over the winter holidays, not June! Bad release date on the studio's part...

Green Lantern is giving off a Hellboy vibe imo and feels more like a B comic book movie rather than an event film. I think this is set for a $30's opening but if buzz builds could get low $40's.
