Did you factor in the 17 million it made on Thursday?

[Gary Floyd]

"Bug" is pretty damn good actually. In spite of the adviertisements, it isn't a horror movie. It's more of a dark comedy/drama. It's still a good movie.

 

It came with the first five minutes of "Hostel part II" and the trailer to the new Lindsey Lohan vehicle "I Know Who Killed Me." They were both pretty "meh."

[Lord of The Curry]

I Know Who Killed Me is a leading contender for worst movie title in quite some time.

I didn't post this earlier because you have to count tomorrow's numbers.

Regardless of the final numbers I'd say releasing POTC 3 a week after Shrek the Third has hurt its chances at all time weekend records. Shrek actually made about 6-10 million more than I thought it would make.

 

Considering Spidey 3 has already gotten to 800 million worldwide (and likely will be the highest grossing outing in the series to date) I'd say it could likely end up the #1 box office hit of the year. I guess there's always Harry Potter to consider, but those seem to do better in the fall/winter than in summer.

Good for Waitress. I haven't seen it yet but I heard it was good.
