But I'll say this. Fast Five could easily do more in midnights than what Hoodwinked Too can do in its entire weekend.

Well I put this in the Derby thread:

I posted this in the TC thread, but I figured I put it here to:

I really hope they announce the TC's soon.
Quite a few of the derby entries this week can make or break due to the TC.
I'm talking about:
Soul Surfer, Scream 4, Insidious, Hanna and Source Code.
So basically everything that is the bottom half (except Cats and Dylan Dog)
Plus to an extent Hop's TC would be nice.

*sigh* still waiting....
This could really screw up my derby.
Of all the times this has to happen it happens when we have so many films that could make or break it.

Zyzzyx Road: OW-10 dollars
Total gross-20 dollars
RIP BOM Forums. I will still go to BOM, but the forms and derby will be missed.

The fact that the deadline wasn't even irregular makes it more frustrating.

TH - 28.0m - Eddie Murphy's comeback, I think this has enough star power and an interesting enough story to open to around 30m, anything below 25m will be bad.

H&K - 16.0m - With this entry being in 3D I'm fearful it could drive audiences away but it does look funny and it should open well.

Tintin - 55m 5 day/200m and 540m OS

Sherlock Holmes - 81m/240m and 420m OS

Tower Heist - 25
HK3 - 16 (25% increase from 2nd film due to 3D, and the ability of stoners to flock when the time is right will give it a strong two-day start followed by a big Sunday drop)
Puss in Boots - 25 mil (power outages)
In Time - 7.5
Rum Diary - 3

With Halloween weekend, Snow Storm and Everyone thinking it opens on November 4th it could happen.

Because of the weather in eastern part of the US and being Halloween weekend last weekend, I think there will be relativty small drops for most of the holdovers this weekend (under 35%). Of the Holdovers in the top 10 maybe only Paranormal Activity 3 and The Three Musketeers will drop over 35%.

I am saying 25 million for the weekend.
