 BETTING ODDS: WATCH!
From Intertops.euBox Office Opening Weekend Gross: The Watch Total Opening 3-Day Weekend Box Office: Friday 27th July to Sunday 29th July U.S. & Canada box office sales only. USD 10 Million to USD 16 Million +150 USD 16 Million to USD 22 Million +150 USD 22 Million or more +225 USD 10 Million or less +350 Very interesting...  Box Office forecasting 21 million... which makes 22 or more +225 a value play....

Shit reviews on Rotten T... if that matters for this type of movie... Vince Vaughn usually does pretty good even with shit reviews.

 Re: BETTING ODDS: WATCH!
Comedy might be a good counter programming from the events that happened. Not saying this will breakout but given that there have been lesser comedies this year it could open to surprising $20m. Also the tracking these days could be deflated because of the general down time in movie going business.

This one not only has to contend with last week's shooting, but also the Trayvon Martin shooting. Plus there's bad reviews (a worse RT rating than That's My Boy) and, well, who's really talking about it?

 Re: BETTING ODDS: WATCH!
Yeah true that is also the case. Still as I said at this point $20m will also be a surprise for it.

 Re: BETTING ODDS: WATCH!
Reviews definitely matter for non-Adam Sandler comedies.
I think it opens below $20m.

This is sci-fi buddy action comedy, there are guns and destruction fairly prominent in the trailer and I am sure film, so people may still be deterred, I don't know.
