Sigh...I know!

I'm more cautiously underpredicting now (Green Lantern high $30's, Cars low $50's).

Cars 2 - 76
Bad Teacher - 21

It'd be nice to see Diaz get a big hit with an opening near Bridesmaids, though.

I think Bad Teacher actually MIGHT overperform (as in $30+ million opening weekend). The marketing has been really strong and Segel and Timberlake gained a lot of profile over the recent years.

I do think it is a somewhat rare case of a comedy with heavy appeal to both genders so that works in its favor.

I would imagine we get some Cars 2 reviews on Monday or maybe Sunday night. It is alarming for a Pixar movie but of course the original wasn't that liked. I think it had the lowest RT scores of all the Pixar films.

I think people are way overestimating Bad Teacher. It's facing a massive 4 quadrant sequel, and people will have already spent over $380 million on r-rated comedies this summer.

Cars 2: $100 million :shades:
Bad Teacher: $15 million

Well, quality doesn't seem to matter when looking at grosses of animated films. Shrek 2 is the highest grossing of all time, and I didn't like it at all. Toy Story 3 is number 2, and it's the worst of the series. Merchandise sales for Cars are huge, so awareness is everywhere. Yes, it skews younger than most of the other Pixar movies, but I think that makes it even more "the movie" to see for families this summer.

Being "the worst of the series" talking about the Toy Story films is not exactly a put-down. Or it shouldn't be.

Yes, because people have a ceiling for how much they'll spend on R-Rated comedies over a short period of time ;).

Well I don't think it will matter for OW. I personally think Cars 2 will do at least 75 million and could make as much as 90. I was thinking for Pixar fans this could be the worse Pixar film, hopefully it isn't rotten on RT.
