: It still needs $6,000+ per theater, which is above normal.

: : Understand in order to make even $10 Mill opening weekend, it needs to average at least $7,000 - $7,500 per theater. Which is above normal for any release. The fact that Ladykillers and Scooby Doo 2 are also out at the same time, not to mention Passion, makes this highly unlikely.
: : $6 - $8 Million would be a solid opening for this number of screens.

: : : Get it while it's hot....there's now available a call or put option for JG's opening weekend, and it's set at only 10 million. I bought my max on it already, it went up to $3.17.....sure to go higher, I imagine. I just wish you were allowed more than 10K shares. I think it might make 10 mil off of just the people from this board, so I'm hoping it's a pretty safe bet.
