Box Office Predictions
Last weekend, Sex and the City surprised just about everyone when it took the top spot by more than $10 million, beating out a potent second week from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Will it be able to hold on for a second frame at the top? That is a highly doubtful proposition. The two films opening this weekend both have a wider range of appeal than the television series turned movie. The bigger question is which one has the bigger potential audience? I am going to go with Kung Fu Panda as this week's big winner. I think the big race will be for third by last week's top two films.
Here is how I think the top ten field will play out:
| Rank | Title | Box Office |
| 1 | Kung Fu Panda | $48 million |
| 2 | You Don't Mess with the Zohan | $34 million |
| 3 | Sex and the City | $23 million |
| 4 | Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull | $22 million |
| 5 | The Strangers | $11 million |
| 6 | Iron ManThe Strangers | $8 million |
| 7 | The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian | $6 million |
| 8 | What Happens in Vegas | $4 million |
| 9 | Baby Mama | $1.5 million |
| 10 | Speed Racer | $1 million |
