Which movie will be number 1 this weekend? - Blu-ray Forum

GreenScar · 04-17-2009, 03:58 AM

Will it be another weekend where Tweens rule? How will the movies stack up this weekend?

Will Hannah Montana, Fast & Furious or Monster's Vs Aliens have a chance?

SlmShdy1 · 04-17-2009, 04:34 AM

I would never see it, but 17 Again will earn the most because of all the teenage girls in love with that guy.

OrlandoEastwood · 04-17-2009, 05:00 AM

Either Crank: High Voltage or 17 Again.

My Prediction top 5:

1. 17 Again
2. Crank: High Voltage
3. Hannah Montana
4. Fast & Furious
5. State of Play

Crank.

All the motorheads will think that it's Italian Job 2, since they haven't turned the nitrus in their brains off from watching Fast & Furious last weekend they'll automatically think that anything with Statham in it is awesome and worthing of being seen.

The first Crank was not a huge B.O. success debuting at #2 with 10 mil. I would think Crank 2 will fall somewhere in that area due to the fact many people who saw the first one hated, and just as many people who picked it up after the dvd release liked it. I would say they balance and it equals the first in money. Efron is a huge girly draw and a family movie is always a good bet especially since it will attract the adults with Matthew Perry playing the other half of Efrons character, some Thomas Lennon fans may also see it. I predict a 17mil range for it and 10 mil for crank. State of Play will probably pull in around 10-15 mil.

The poll should of included the new Hanna Montana film as I predict it'll be on the top again.

atomik kinder · 04-17-2009, 04:42 PM

Spring breaks are still going on. Unfortunately, I think it will be 17 Again. If it does really well, just think of all the Tween movies we will have to put up with in the future.

Debuting in 3,255 theaters, 17 Again could capture around $19M this weekend.

Bursting into 2,223 locations, Crank High Voltage could debut with about $12M this weekend.

Entering 2,803 theaters, State of Play may collect around $11M this weekend.

Following its sensational debut last weekend, Hannah Montana The Movie is set for a huge fall in its sophomore frame. Most of the audience rushed out upfront to see the teen sensation, plus the Good Friday holiday supersized the opening day tally so this Friday will be puny by comparison. A steep tumble of at least 60% should result giving the Disney hit about $13M boosting the ten-day cume to $57M.

Fast & Furious already had its fierce second weekend slide so the racing sequel could stabilize a bit this weekend. Universal looks to experience a 55% decline which would put the Vin-Paul flick at around $12M pushing the 17-day tally to a turbo-charged $137M. Seth Rogen's Observe and Report got off to a lukewarm start last weekend and there is little buzz propelling the film forward. Look for a 45% drop to about $6M for a ten-day total of $21M.

This site usually gets it right. I'm not sure about Crank beating out State of Play, but they'll be close I believe, as they note. Unfortunately, 17 AGAIN will prob. take the same path as Hannah's crowd, making it #1

17 again but I want it to be Crank. Gonna get part 1 on my lunch break on Blu.

Blu-Benny · 04-17-2009, 05:10 PM

it'll be 17 Again, no doubt!!

GORT · 04-17-2009, 05:22 PM

looking at those movies I can honestly say I don't care.

pacificvibes · 04-17-2009, 05:23 PM

Sadly, it will be 17 again. All those teeny bopper girls going goo and gaa over Efron.

probably...but state of play's got some great reviews thus far.

dvd_mazter · 04-17-2009, 05:35 PM

17 Again will take it, Efron will appeal to the tweens. State of Play I think will do pretty good as well (Crowe and Affleck have good box office power). Crank 2 will also take a decent amount as well. Should be a strong weekend all around.

My top five prediction:

1. 17 Again
2. State of Play
3. Crank 2
4. Hannah Montana
5. Fast & Furious

krazyclown · 04-17-2009, 05:44 PM

would love it to be crank 2

but the young girls love Efron so 17 Again will kill this weekend

Blu Titan · 04-17-2009, 05:49 PM

Crank 2

Let the MEN rule the weekend. No Sac whatever his name is at number one pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee. 17 Again, not this weekend...

andyman1970 · 04-17-2009, 05:50 PM

I'll say 17 Again, and it looks like a fun movie. Good to see Matthew Perry come out of "hiding." I hope Crank 2 doesn't even factor in.

Dude, I was just thinking the EXACT same thing.

Blurayfan88 · 04-17-2009, 05:52 PM

Alot of you are forgetting that comedies have done really well since the recession.

17 again - 30-40 million
Hanna Montana- 15-20
Crank - around 10
State of play - under 10

Tcan21 · 04-17-2009, 05:54 PM

I voted 17 Again, but I wouldnt be surprised if it was Monster vs. Aliens or Hannah Montana
