@ actionman - Tons. I am thinking around $37 million the first weekend, and a top off of around $120 million... unless it actually lives up to the ejaculatory review bestowed upon it by Harry Knowles and the bottomless wallets of Paramount that paid for those words. Then, it should reach $200 million.
Poland is a douche. He fuckin' championed Hairspray...
Is there any way that Cloverfield opens to only $15 million and then does $50 million domestic total? I doubt it, but is awareness really through the roof? I know the trailer was attached to Transformers and all the viral marketing and shit, but I just don't know how psyched people are overall for this movie. Me...I can't wait...but it looks to be my sort of thing. It's opening at the Arclight, and I can only assume in the Dome.
How are Sweeney Todd and Phantom "gay-themed?" Todd doesn't have a single gay vein in its body, and Phantom was too shitty for any self-respecting gay to get behind.
Thanks for sharing the information dude. I found the information very helpful. That's a awesome article you posted. I will come back to read some more.

Well, according to the Minnesota Fats of box office analysis, it will open with 40 million and then bomb because it's a piece of shit.

How much were people predicting for Snakes on a Plane?
Of course if the movie actually turns out to be good I guess that's a different story.

I don't know, guys. I think that Mad Money could take away a huge chunk of the Cloverfield audience.

Don't forget 27 Dresses, Winchester. It's similar to Cloverfield really, except the monster is COMMITMENT.

Poland always backs the gay themed flicks: Hairspray, Dreamgirls, Sweeney Todd, Phantom of the Opera, etc. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Still, you know he posted that just to piss Wells off. God, I love a good bitch fight!

With all the Cloverfield news around here, you'd think they renamed the movie to "Zodiac".
