I can't believe you think HTTYD will still be doing that well this weekend, and the Losers not taking number 1?? I don't think Lopez' new rom com has a chance at the number one spot maybe 2nd at best.
Nice try, but try again. I could guess up better numbers off the top of my head.
a lot of ppl bring their kids to movies like dragon, thats why they do so well for solong obviously. And rom coms tend to do better then action flicks getting shitty reviews, especially with names like aJLo attatched to star!
I already took my kids to dragon so I'll be seeing The back up plan this weekend.

Calm down pal, he obviously has some idea what he's doing...And do you think this was the only site to give the losers a shitty review, give your head a shake, it won't land number one and its gonna take huge drops from here on out with the nightmare remake hitting next weekend and Ironman the week after
I think you'll end up fairly close, the only one I would dispute is the number one spot. It's possible dragon will take it again...
Has J-Lo still got that much box office glout? It's been about five years, since she last headlined a film (a long time in Hollywood terms). Also, do CBS films have the right ad campaign to make this work? The last film they released (that cancer flick that I can't remember the name of) tanked, even though it had Harrison "I used to be able to open movies on my own" Ford in it...
and (whisper it) Brenden Fraser...
ha ha. True, I think it will be close. She'll either take the top spot or end up in second.
