I wouldn't really call it a *real* start to the summer. I mean, both can achieve over $20m, but that's not a great start. |

Um... What? I expected that many for Kicking & Screaming, but a chick flick (other than Hitch) hasn't been in that many theaters since last April. I guess theatres are completely starved for new films, so it's not terribly surprising. |

Kicking & Screaming might do $30m and Monster-in-Law will hit $20m which is good considering the past two weeks. Both of the movies will probably due better than supposed Summer starters "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", "xXx: State of the Union", and "Kingdom of Heaven". |

I agree, Kicking and Screaming is going to do very well.........30 million is a possible. |

Bad drop for Amityville Horror, but expected for xXx: State of the Union. Both fell over 1,000 theaters. |

Terrific for Monster-in-Law. Still don't see Kicking & Screaming getting 30M. |

There is such a void at the marketplace yet, it makes a Black Hole seem harmless. No seriously. Theatres are starving for new flicks, hoping for them to bring them fortune. I see around $29-30 million for Kicking and Screaming now and over $20 million for Monster in Law. |

Estimated theater count for Ep3: 3700 Not bad, not Shrek 2 or Spiderman 2 territory, however quite a few more than Ep2. |

Will probably end up with around 3,750 theatres. What a shame, considering that Monster in Law opens in 3,424 and Shark Tale got more than 4,000. |

I tried a couple sites to catch what Holy Girl expands to and couldn't find it. When someone finds it can they post it for me please? |

Why can't I live near one of the ten screens showing Layer Cake? ](*,) That's a lot of screens for two potentially horrendous movies (Kicking and Screaming and Monster-In-My-Pants). I have the feeling when I go to see Unleashed and Mindhunters this weekend, the theater will be packed but my showings will be empty. \:D/ |

Well, Unleashed won't be, but Mindhunters most likely will. |

Mindhunters is a great movie, and Unleashed looks great, too. The fact that it's one of Jet Li's best reviewed english movies only increases my anticipation. But, of course, the studios treat these movies like shit and push movies like Monster-in-Law into 3,400+ theaters. ](*,) |

So now it is showing in ten theatres. Perfect. This right here is prober expansion. Hustle could have learned something from this unfortunately and it would have probably gotten a good 7 to 10 million more. I gave them both a B+ (for different reasons) but know Holy Girl doesn't have wide appeal. It's fascinating to see how they're going to generate it, especially since you told me about how high the screen average for Bad Education was last year (and how botched its distribution cause of it). Mark my words Holy Girl will keep something close to 10,000/theatre. For third week in limited release that's great. I expect it to jump to about 25 theatres as counter programming on Star Wars weekend. |

3700, 4000 - does it really make a difference? I think 3700 is enough for everyone everywhere to find a free seat. |

Yeah, if Episode III can get 3,700 theaters, I'm very happy. I was hoping that Lucas would try to get more than Episode II's 3100. |

If it gets 3,750 it would be the 7th widest opening ever which isn't too bad. I think a $100 million dollar Friday to Sunday gross for ROTS is very possible now. Edit: If ROTS got the same average that AOTC got but in 3,750 theaters its opening would be about $95m/$130.7m. |

3,424 is unfeasibly high for Monster - In - Law This isn't "Hitch 2". Sure it will be a pretty solid hit; but certainly not big enough to demand over 3,200 theaters. I thought we learned our lesson about placing romantic comedies in too many theaters with "Fever Pitch" and "13" [although the latter did have "Mean Girls" to contend with] |
