I just don't see Hitch as a movie that had any appeal to small children at all.

Wait- Mavv, didn't you say you thought Yard and Smiths were the only two films to open to 40m without kid appeal? OK, fine... and Lecter said you forgot Hitch, which also lacked kid appeal.
You've confused me.

Saw II won't hit 100 million although I wish it would...More likely is around 90-95 million

I agree, I don't see Saw II passing $100 million, more like $91-93 million. People forget that later in the run, Saw had really harsh drops of 55% and even on the Thanksgiving weekend it dropped over 45%.

I'm not the one claiming Derailed would have a big opening.

You said that Derailed is opening to $15 million for sure. That's enough for me.

Terrific for Chicken Little! Look for teeny tiny drops in the upcoming weeks and a total somewhere in the vicinity of $"Above Harry Potter 4" million.
Impressive for everything else, especially Flight Plan, GN&GL and Zorro.

Rest of the numbers are in.
As expected, Jarhead didn't have a good internal weekend multiplier.
