 May 24-27 predictions
It's crazy how much Star Trek's disappointment kept us all so busy that no thread for the next weekend has been created.
Anyway...
The Hangover Part III - $74 million (5-day) Fast & Furious 6 - $104 million (4-day) Epic - $35 million (4-day)

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
How about adding a poll about the combined b.o. total of the top 6 movies over the 4 day weekend?

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
It was odds on to be biggest Memorial Day weekend ever - though now it will have to fight for it.

The Hangover Part III - $67 million (5-day) Fast & Furious 6 - $93 million (4-day) Epic - $33 million (4-day)
Everything will look underwhelming a bit. N-quel fatigue is coming.

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
Some people will be surprised when The Hangover does underwhelming. Not me  . Now, I do think legs will be kind of decent. People will probably catch up with it after they've seen Fast & Furious 6. But if people are only going to go to one movie next weekend it will be F & F I'm sure. They are both attracting pretty much the same audience even if they are different genres. There's not room for both to open to around 100 Million each.

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
I think some people will be surprised when Hangover surpasses these terribly low predictions with ease.

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
Not gonna happen  . Maybe if it were the sole big opener next weekend, or at least the sole one targeting this demographic. I don't think many are clamoring for another Hangover movie though and the ads aren't that funny. It's this year's Sex & The City 2 but will perform better than that  .

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
Hangover marketing seems stronger than Fast Six. Though that may be here only where Hangover is opening a couple of weeks earlier than Furious.

 Re: May 24-27 predictions
I expect $231-240 million for the Top 6. The weekend has a shot at ending up as the 6th-biggest weekend ever.

You could be right. In comparison to last year - the 3 openers will likely open to a higher total than the entire Top 20 last year...
