Yeah you know what to do...

Damn, lets just let this weekend pass first.

Mine:
1. Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy 31.0
2. XXX2 27.0
3. The Interpretur 14.9
4. Sahara 5.2
5. A Lot Like Love 5.0
6. Amityville Horror 5.0
7. Kung Fu Hustle 4.7
8. Fever Pitch 3.1
9. Guess Who 2.0
10. Robots 1.9
11. Sin City 1.8

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - 42 million
xXx 2 - 28 million.

Everything else - crap.

I think both XXX 2 and Hitchhiker's Guide should do quite well. Hitchhicker's Guide has the kids/family film appeal, which is something needed in a nearly empty kids film market. The commercials also rock. And XXX 2 looks to have some good action, plus it has the urban film appeal. I think both films will pull through to have a good weekend.

PEACE, Mike

XXX2- $36M
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy- $24M

Rite, i give in.

Summer officially begins.

1. XXX2- $35,000,000

3. The Interpreter 13 million
4. The Amityville Horror 8.2 million
5. Kung Fu Hustle 6 million (Assuming 7.2 million this weekend)

2. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 25m
3. The Interpreter 10m
4. The Amityville Horror 6.8m
5. Kung Fu Hustle 5m

King's Ransom - -68% (Although the theaters will keep it, many will have only one showtime a day.)

Do you guys really think that Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy can beat XXX: State of the Union? I seriously doubt it.

XXX: State of the Union: $45 million
Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy: $23 million

Hitchhiker's TV spots have really disappointed me. They make the movie look like Thunderbirds and a stupid action movie. But on the kid networks, advertising is aimed directly torward them which is good.

We are having midnight shows Thursday night for both Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and XXX2.
These are the first midnight shows we've had since ROTK :wink:

See, that's what kills me. I have barely seen any ads for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, so I'm trying to figure out how much of it is the stupid action ads and how much is the genius in that one trailer, because if the campaign was focused in one direction more then the other I think it'd make the difference between a low 20 million opening and a high 30s one.

People are overestimating XXX2, methinks.

Anyone who's predicting it to do more then xXx is setting themselves up for a disappointment, it's not gonna do as bad as say Speed 2, which was another action flick that didnt have one of its leads come back for a sequel, but it wont make 40m+. People can come up with things like, its the beginning of the summer movie season or things of that matter, but if thats the case lets give every movie thats going wide from hear on a prediction of over 40m

XXX2 To The Bone - $59m
Hitch...he Galaxy $14.4m

Everything else -$45.4m

Jeez, more then Bourne Supremacy and I,Robot? Fat freakin chance, these xXx2 predictions are getting crazier and crazier.

My prediction is reasonable, yours is just nuts. I have a feeling its not real though.

Fine then:

1. XXX2 67.0
