I joined the under $50 mil club over a week ago! After reviewing the market and trends in the industry I predicted $58 mil.

No different than what you do.

Then what I do?

In other words, I did your thinking for you and you raised your idiots 40 million prediction...

You made your prediction on Sunday. I made mine on Saturday.

Sorry.

Uh...no. Just a few days ago, you were calling for a disappointment. It's okay, I've done the thinking for quite a few people here during my time. Everybody was at 40 until I mentioned the possibility of it outdoing the original. That was WAY before Sunday, if you want to get technical.

You suck at this stuff, which is why you realize you need to let others think for you. Your predictions being all over the place prove that. Try to have more self respect.

It won't matter.

ha...I'll bet it will.

The Incredible Hulk - 2529 (514), +92 (+21), B+
The Happening - 1045 (203), +68 (+42), B-

Happening had QUITE the written review jump.

Early reports from out East is that HAPPN is selling out more shows than HULK2, looks like a definite long. -- nm

That said, HULK2 is also doing well and will easily surpass MTC's mid 40's prediction -- nm notfabio Jun 13, 22:05

SPAM BOT!!!

The Incredible Hulk - 2670 (543), +141 (+29), B+
The Happening - 1171 (230), +126 (+27), C+ (down from B-)

$18m+ Friday for Hulk and $9m+ for Happening, $50m+ weekend for Hulk and $22m+ for Happening

This forum is filled with bipolar people, and that will be out in full force tomorrow and the rest of the weekend!

What is the predicted ratio for TIH?

You think TH will drop on Saturday? Not very likely.

Well, LITW did. And Shymalan's films aren't exactly increasing in pedigree.

Looks like my $45 million prediction for Hulk was low-balling. But by how much?

Why not? It's being marketed as a horror film and they always drop on Saturday.

It'll drop Saturday, but have a decent Sunday drop.

I don't see a rush factor for this.

Signs didn't: +3%
TCM03 didn't +1.3%
The Hills Have Eyes didn't +9%
Vacancy: +4.7%
The hitcher 2007 +21%

There are plenty of horror films that increase.

The smaller the opening, the bigger the increase, usually. Since The Happening is going to open big it seems, less likely of an increase. The R-rating differentiates it from M. Night's previous films.

all of those films but Signs is rated R...i think R rating will mke the audience spread out over the weekend.

Both The Village and Lady in the Water dropped.

And erm... don't forget the Friday the 13th factor.

Hopefully it cracks 20 million.

I watched it and I will give it a 7.5/10

I thought action rocked, sfx was awesome, norton was very good, liv tyler was ok, Tim Roth was solid but it seems like some scenes of his was edited, William Hurt was solid too but again bunch of stuff was edited, Music was great.

Like I mentioned I had problems with the editing of the movie. It felt like they were trying to bring the next action scene so it felt a bit rushed. I am gonna definitely get the DVD or Blu ray to see 70 minutes of unseen footage.

Hulk- 3095

Happening- 1548

I really can't see Hulk below $20 mil. I'd say a 150 ratio sounds right

Happening can pull off a 100-ish ratio for $15 mil... but I think it's probably around 120... so about $11 mil
