 Bedtime Stories 150 Million and under Club
I know absolutely nothing, NOTHING about this movie and didn't even know it existed, but after seeing Excel's 250 Million club thread, I thought I'd counteract it with a pure dumb luck thread of my own in the hope I'd simply get lucky.. For the hell of it, who's in??

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million Club
There's no such thing as luck; only probability (not that I would ban the word  ). Now, given the number you have a good probability of being right. Knowing nothing can be far better than mistakenly knowing things.  It can even be better than knowing the right things, but not being inspired to look deeper. At least the person who knows nothing might try to maximize understanding, conceptualization, visualization etc.  The concept is bound to attract attention, and the trailer is effective. I'm in.

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million Club
Yeah, I think Waterboy's 10 year reign is going down as Sandler's biggest.
Sandler+ Kids+ High Concept + Christmas = 44 million opening, possible 200-300 total.

Although, I wish they do some better marketing for it.

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million Club
Isn't this pointless if we already have excel's club? I mean, sure it may not hit 250m but it has a better chance of doing that then going below 150.

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million and under Club
I could see Bedtime Stories double this tally, and potentially do $300 m. Not in!

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million and under Club
Based on the weekend numbers thus far, Bedtime Stories is lucky to even come close to 100 Million.. Another good call from me along with Marley & Me.. This warrants a What Went Wrong Thread..

Lol, BKB. It is passing $165 million. Mark my words. Wanna bet?

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million and under Club
I completely disagree with this thread, but I hardly think we should lock it. It's only made $20 m thus far, and everyone should be allowed to have an opinion, even if most do disagree with it.

You should not be able to change a club like that without getting it locked.

 Re: Bedtime Stories 150 Million and under Club
Well, to be fair, it looks like BKB changed the club last Friday or something. But yeah, no matter when he changed it, he's still wrong about it making $150m, so what does it matter? Haha.

He didnt even specify if its under and over but in all fairness I changed it to under 150 million from reading his negative comment. I thought thats what it meant. If it was a stupid statement club I would have just locked it so I may as well change the title If he argues that it should be a statement thread and not an under/over club, I'll definately lock the thread like his multiple Hulk topics

It's simple: Bedtime Stories is clearly making UNDER, Get it?? UNDER 150 Million, especially after a paltry weekend opening..
