Re: June 15-17 Predictions I'm torn between falling in line with the 20-25 or even 30 million predictions for Rock of Ages and staying with my gut-feeling low prediction of around 13. Tough.

Tough. 13 is too low, considering how wide it goes. It actually gets better screen allocation than TMB does in my area. If screen count is something to go by, TMB should do better than The Three Stooges but below The Dictator's five-day OW. RoA should do somewhere between $23 mil and $27 mil.

Re: June 15-17 Predictions Yeah, a couple weeks ago I was predicting between 14-15 Million for Rock of Ages. But with the huge theater count I just don't see that happening. I'm still not predicting it to crack 20 Million though. I just can't see interest being THAT high.

Well, in these two films' case, it appears it was true. Finke says 18-21 for RoA, 12-15 for TMB. Atrocious.

Re: June 15-17 Predictions Clayton, your predictions were closer than nearly every derby game player's projections. Good job!
