their price).  I am certain TWLI3 is not going to open worse than SHRK4.

I'll bite....if not the two films I mentioned, I am curious as to what you think would open $20M+ less than the halt (if the mystery stock halted today)?

Shrek is a money maker for the shorters, but the most profitable short of the summer is still to come... RoBoGuru May 22, 10:48

What about ATEAM? It has the look of a Speedracer or Land of the Lost. I think the trailers or horrible. {nm} lhayes37 May 22, 11:21

are horrible :) {nm} lhayes37 May 22, 11:24

The show has its diehard fans and it won't open under $30 million like Speed Racer/Land of the Lost. secretstalker May 22, 11:24

I was a die hard fan growing up in the 80's. The upcoming film looks so forced. I can see under 30 plus awful word of mouth. {nm} lhayes37 May 22, 11:30

I see ATEAM more like Dukes of Hazzard than Charlies Angels. {nm} lhayes37 May 22, 11:33

Dukes of Hazzard opened with $30 million. QED. {nm} secretstalker May 22, 11:34

S.W.A.T. $37 million... Starsky and Hutch $28 million (not in summer) secretstalker May 22, 11:36

i don't agree with that. Dukes was done by Broken Lizard, this is a big budget action with a great cast. i don't think the mood by the lobogotti May 22, 11:38

so many parts of that statement are wrong i dont know where to start {nm} bennyboy10 May 22, 14:43

How about G.I. Joe, for comparisons... ? If this is horribly irrelevant, please excuse me - I have no relationship to either one of these Facto May 22, 12:03

I am a big fan and this movie isa betrayal, Neeson looks ridiculous. Disaster. {nm} JimmyGatts May 22, 15:31

like stalker says, there is no way the opens under 30M and imo it will do better than that. even if it is a short it would have to open lobogotti May 22, 11:27

I did NOT say "no way it opens under 30 m"... Do NOT put words in my mouth. {nm} secretstalker May 22, 11:33

lol....i can see how you read it that way, sorry. "for the record", i am saying there is no way it opens under 30M {nm} lobogotti May 22, 11:35

I'll say : no way it opens under 40. Neeson's great casting and the trailer has that tank-in-the-air shot {nm} mud May 22, 12:20

Completely! Neeson look slike he is wearing a cheap wig, below $100MM {nm} JimmyGatts May 22, 15:29

Well, OTHRG does look like a complete turd. {nm} lesana May 22, 11:59
