Weekend Boxoffice Prediction?

Posted on 13:19 by pollard
I may make this a weekly feature of this site, because pondering future box office beats a sharp stick in the eye.

Three movies are opening wide tomorrow:
Open Season (on 3833 screens)
The Guardian (on 3241 screens)
School For Scoundrels (3004 screens)

Plus there's one major holdover, Jackass Number Two, on 3063 screens.

All you need to do is predict (in the comments section, naturally) how much these four movies will make this weekend. Closest (determined by total difference of your four predictions to the actual official gross reported on Monday) wins kudos, bragging rights, and the ability to dance around your apartment in your underwear for an actual reason.

My picks:
Open Season $18.9 million
Jackass 2 $13.7 million
School For Scoundrels $10.6 million
The Guardian $9.3 million

Contest closes at 3 PM west coast time on Friday.

Go.
