Now that I think about it maybe do want to continue the trend and make a bet with Zingaling for MI3. I do like his reaction over seeing a movie he doesnt want to watch

Actually I would pay some nobody critic to go see it, write me an indepth review of it and use it as my own so it looks like I actually saw it_________________ "People always want to tear you down when you're on top, like Napoleon back in the Roman Empire" - Dirk Diggler

Superman Returns would be a prime bet to shame Zingaling on.

$50 is a lot to a 17-year-old.

Hmm tempting. If you lose you get to watch another bad movie of my choice, if you win you get $50
Then again I would probably up that MI3 limit to 160 million instead

Awesome job by Eight Below. I had a feeling this would be #1 with about $21-22M, but I still underpredicted it. It was a wonderful movie.
Solid performance by Date Movie, pretty bad for Freedomland.
Stunning holds by The Pink Panther and Curious George, especially with Eight Below in the mix.
Firewall and Final Destination are solid, look for final grosses of $45M and $50-55M, respectively.
Also, side note? Has anyone noticed that every single family film released lately has been a hit? Hoodwinked, Nanny McPhee, Pink Panther, Curious George, Eight Below.
I'm starting to wonder about Doogal.

Big Momma's House became the new top grossing film of 2006. Enjoy the short-lived title. Also, Narnia is getting ever so close to pass Goblet of Fire.

Pink Panther could hit $100m.
If it follows How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days or Hitch's pattern, it's there.

Eight Below could make it as well I think.

I don't think Eight Below will make it. The Pink Panther had the advantage of having the holiday weekend in its second weekend. I think it'll top out at around $70-80M, which is nothing to complain about, really.

Since then, I learned more about Paypal, though. The bet is on. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!
