It looks to be quite a tight race, it seems. I thin we've mainly got three contenders: Lakeview Terrace, My Best Friend's Girl and Burn After Reading. Normally, I'd just say My Best Friend's Girl easily (looks most audience-friendly), but its R-rating and the oversaturation of the market with R-rated comdies recently makes me think that it'll be closer. Good Luck Chuck opened last year to $13.6 million, but I'd argue that My Best Firend's Girl is more likely to work as a date flick and Kate Hudson is a bigger draw than Jessica Alba, so I think it'll open around $14-15 million. Lakeview Terrace on the other hand is PG-13 and looks to have a generic, but quite commercial premise. I could see it pulling a similar number too. I think Burn After Reading has a chance if both underperform, as it should make $11.5-12.5 million in its second weekend. Right now, I'm leaning towards My Best Firend's Girl, but only by a little bit. |

I'm going to say My Best Friend's Girl, although Burn After Reading and Lakeview Terrace won't be far behind. |

Isn't My Best Friend's Girl R? If so, that might help Lakeview Terrace. Also, this is the first time I can recall where Lionsgate has released a film wide in three consecutive weeks. |

It's either going to be Lakeview Terrace or Burn After Reading. I'll go with Sam Jackson on this one. For some reason I just don't see My Best Friend's Girl opening well. Maybe it's me but I just haven't seen much marketing for it. |
