I read that MI 3 has made over 200 million worldwide and that Poseidon cost 150 million to make.

I just want to mention that Poseidon looks dreadful.

Poor Lohan lost her body and she may have lost her drawing power. She was in the only couples movie in theaters and could only manage 5 million. Granted it may also just be a case of a movie looking really BAD.

 

Poseidon may have also suffered from in a lot of the previews, you had no CLUE who was starring in it. It was like, "hey look, a boat flips and that guy from Homicide says things!"

Poseidon is also a remake. Plus wasn't there a tv Poseidon last year? Lohan has lost all drawing power. I didn't even see this movie promoted and forgot that it came out this weekend.

Besides Lohan's body and her hair I just don't think anyone can take her remotely seriously in an adult role. It's almost a bizarre reverse of the usual trend: Teen star hangs on to that demographic too long, can't get any roles beyond the HS flicks, etc. Here she is trying to leap quickly into adult roles without much in the way of transitions.

 

And yes, Josh Lucas sucks. I'll put it this way about the guy: The first thing I saw him in was Sweet Home Alabama, and I wanted Reese Witherspoon to end up with Patrick Dempsey instead of him.

Yeah, i'm pretty sure we all know what's opening up at #1 next weekend...

 

Hint: It doesn't have Tom Hanks or Bruce Willis as a Racoon in it...

DaVinci code will outgross X3. Bank on it. X3 may have a bigger opening weekend.... all comic book movies do. Not that I'm going to the movies anytime soon. Movie theatres fucking suck.

 

Poseiden looks like fucking shit.

I can see X3 doing 200-250 million. Da Vinci Code should do 200 million plus for it's run.

DaVinci Code is hard to predict. Will the so called controversy help the film at the box office, or will it hurt the film? Catholic boycotts used to be a huge deal for Hollywood (The Legion of Decency after all made Hollywood enforce the Production Code), but I'm not sure the same would hold today.

DaVinci is going to have a huge opening week. It's like Harry Potter- people who read the book want to see it, who people who have heard of the fuss but never bothered to read the book now really want to see it.

Bob is right, DVC has a built in fanbase just like XMen and unlike Harry Potter, DVC was an adult hit so you draw that crowd while the dorks and teens flock to XMen.

 

Both movies will have really healthy openings.
