Bleh, I let myself being influenced again and predicted only $8.5 million for ATL.
I blame this on DP07!
At least I went low-ish on BI2.

Don't kids movies have low multipliers?
Could Ice Age 2 make over $25M today?

Right now, I'd say that Ice Age II is heading for around $17-18M, Basic Instinct 2 with $1-2M, ATL with $4-5M, and Slither with around $2M as well.
Ice Age II is almost guaranteed to make $60M this weekend.

Not surprising. I predicted $64.5 million, but I was playing safe. My expectations were around $67-68 million. Ice Age was a really well-liked film and the sequel was advertised well. I think it will end up in this year's overall Top 3 domestically.

It really shouldn't be that much of a surprise. The other two sequels to CGI hits (Shrek and Toy Story) doubled their original's opening (Shrek increased 150% on the original).
DAMN ME!

No, that's good, since you had one of the highest predictions for it (I had 10.8 million). It looks like you and I will be closer than anyone else.

WHY DID I GO SO HIGH ON SLITHER!!!!! I would have done fine with the other 3 openers, but I just HAD to screw up on Slither...I still can't see why it couldn't have gotten a 6000 PTA with its stellar reviews and what not.

No buzz or promotion whatsoever, and horror is a genre that least depends on reviews. Yahoo buzz charts and Moviefone are more dependable here.

I gave Slither $8.3 million and I hope it can at least squeeze out $6 million.

You're right. I really need to avoid going with my gut sometimes and actually doing more homework on movies like this.
