Davinci, well, the pre sales garentee a $20000 pta. This is pretty much the middle senerio for it.
Over the Hedge should be similar to Chicken Little and Madagascar.

The rest of the movies will suffer 50%+ thanks to two monster openers.

M:I-3.......12.3

Da Vinci...Jesus I really don't know what to say. I started off with a 19000 PTA, but with all this pre-sales shit, I bumped it up to 82.5. But the reviews really worry me about that extra onslaught of potential moviegoers that will be turned off by overwhelmingly negative reviews. So I went down a couple million

Hedge will do just fine, but its appearance which seems all too famililar and (I think) its buzz is a tad bit smaller than that of Madagascar and Shark Tale. Nonetheless, it has the best reviews of the three, and should just do a little under their PTA's of about 12,000, around 11,250. (I think I went too low in retrospect, I started with about 48 million)

Poseiden I can't see sinking too much further than my prediction, I think the market will expand a little bit so it doesn't nosedive over or near 60%.

RV...I know Shaggy Dog collapsed well over 60%, but RV has two things going for it that Shaggy Dog does not. Over the Hedge will be nowhere near as big as Ice Age 2 (Easily 20 million short) and RV is on a much better roll than Shaggy Dog was. SD dropped 32% before its freefall (still good of course) while RV dropped 10 percent. It amazes me, even though yes, it was the only family film on the market, really. So I see it obviously taking a big hit, down to a 50% drop, but I can't see it doing too much worse than that.

I don't understand why some think Just My Luck is going to fall flat on its face for the second straight weekend. It has no new direct competition, its genre usually doesn't drop over 40%, and shit, even NEW YORK MINUTE only dropped 36% (off the top of my head but I think that's close) So, a 38-39% drop doesn't seem out of the question. It's still Lindsay Lohan.

Stick It the same applies. I think if it were not for its immense theater-shedding, it would manage a sub-40% drop again. Seeing that this isn't the case, I still think it can stay afloat and drop around 45%, which isn't terrible.

Alright I'm done

DVC: $69m
Over the Hedge: $39m
See No Evil: $3.1m

My fearless predictions:

Da Vinci Code 83.5
Over the Hedge 37.6
Poseidon 11.1
Mission: Impossible 3 11.9
Just My Luck 2.8
RV 5.5
See No Evil 4.1
Hoot .9
Stick It 1.7
Ice Age: The Meltdown 1.6
Scary Movie 4 .8
Akeelah and the Bee 1.1

Twelve and Holding $35,000

Derby predicts.

DVC $84.3m
Over the Hedge $44
M:I:III $11.8m
Poseidon $10.3m

Just My Luck $4.9m
RV $3m

See no Evil $3m
United 93 $1.9m
An American Haunting $1.6m
Stick It $1.6m

Should've been vice versa between RV and JML, too bad I've just noticed the error.

I don't see why everyone is predicting such a massive drop for Poseidon. WOM is fine, it's IM last weekend was good, the new competition isn't really direct, and usually movies with disappointing opening weekends hold on strongly the next.

DVC $82 million
Over the Hedge $38 million
MI3 $11.2 million
Poseidon $8.8 million
RV $5 million
See No Evil $3.6 million

Due to the wretched reviews, and WOM will be bad, I see DVC fully frontloaded, and a -10%+ drop on Saturday. Maybe a Gigli drop next weekend. LOL.

i challenge you to post the same thing 3 times.
