New Movies and Box Office Predictions: Imagine That, The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 - Page 2

Part of: New Movies

Also opening this week, but not near me:
  • Call of the Wild 3D
  • Food, Inc.
  • Moon
  • Sex Positive
  • Tetro

Box Office Predictions
This week does not seem to offer anything of particular value. I am interested in one of the two, and not so much in the other. This is a tough call to make: will one of these upstarts take to top or will we see a past winner return to the top? I honestly have no idea. There are no sure things on the schedule until Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen arrives in a couple of weeks. I am going to go with a narrow victory for the Denzel/Travolta team up over the latest Pixar masterpiece. I do not see Imagine That being a genuine contender, although I have been known to be wrong from time to time.

Here is how I think it could play out.

1The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3$27 million
2Up$26 million
3The Hangover$20 million
