As I predicted before Lone Survivor even came out it will still be number 1 this next weekend:.
If anything can beat it it will definitely be RIDE ALONE.
Jack Ryan will bomb. Looks kinda weak

1. Lone Survivor $23.1M
2. Ride Along $22.1
3. Jack Ryan $14.4M
4. The Nut Job $12.4M
5. Frozen $9.7M
6. Devil's Due $7M

Jack Ryan $28 million
Nut Job $25 million
Ride Along $20 million
Devil's Due $17 million

None of these films interest me. I'm hoping Lone Survivor can repeat.

Yeah nobody's going to go see it and with the number of strong hold-overs, I wouldn't be surprised to see it open outside the top 10.

Totes joke, Nut Job looks terrible.

The Nut Job
Lone Survivor
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit
Frozen
The Wolf Of Wall Street

[Jennifer Lawrence Fan]

I'm gonna go out and say Devil's Due will pull out the upset. Ala The Devil Inside.

[Britnasty]

Ride Along will be #1 with 28-31M.

[Pounder]

I voted Ride Along because I think it will a monster opening day. 26 million for the weekend.

I know it'll probably be 'Ride Along', but I'm taking a chance and going with 'Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit'. It might be able to scrape by with a win. Hope so, I want to see a series out of this one.

Hmm Spam.

Devil's Due looks like 2014's The Devil Inside while the Nutjob looks absolutely horrendous too.

Jack Ryan looks pretty good so I hope it doesn't flop or suck.

Not one of those look like a film I'd care to see so it wouldn't bother me at all if all 3 of them flopped.

Well I'm glad you don't run Hollywood.

Jack Ryan is such a great character, and I'd like to see the series return in full form. Hoping this one does well. International numbers will help it.

I'm glad I don't run Hollywood too, it would be a lot more boring and safer than it is right now. Would certainly be a lot less flops but there wouldn't really be any surprises either.
