You don't think a sequel to a movie that grossed $107 million can do at least $30 million opening weekend in a wide release?

I know a lot of people who liked the first movie and are dying to see the new one.

RS: [PNAC2] high 20s, [HAFTR] high single digits secretstalker Oct 17, 16:31

Feel it's a little high on PNAC2, while a little low on HAFTR, although the latter is definitely not breaking out {nm} xiayun Oct 17, 16:45

PNAC2 definetly has the potential to be huge again. {nm} gogreen Oct 17, 17:06

So far advance sales have been soft, but the trailer does get good reaction {nm} notfabio Oct 17, 17:47

Blair Witch 2! {nm} mickpix Oct 17, 17:48

The Grudge 2 islander Oct 17, 17:59

Except PNAC2 is coming out only a year later and it uses the same conventions as the original secretstalker Oct 17, 18:13

The examples others have mentioned (Blair Witch, Grudge) give me pause; Ring 2 opened to $35m xiayun Oct 17, 18:48

Ring 2 was hampered over a film terms issue with at least one major theatre chain (same as The Island) that booked far less prints/late show {nm} notfabio Oct 17, 19:38

I agree, the dvd sold extremely well for a high box office horror film. lots of upside in the sequel {nm} Moviesnob Oct 17, 19:04

Sounds about right to me... {nm} Port Value League Admin Oct 17, 16:46

Thanks ! joeoftexas Oct 17, 16:57

I know saw 6 made only 14.1 on opening weekend, though we may see an upsight tick with the final installment {nm} karspov Oct 17, 17:08

ERC's guesses: PNAC2 36, HAFTR 14. second gary Oct 17, 17:18
