Looks like Bloody will finish 5th, behind even Hotel for Dogs. I've got the order nailed but came in low on the dollars. People were again hungry for movies.

I'm with Box Office Guru with putting My Bloody Valentine at number one. It's gotten some shockingly good reviews, which will pull in more of an audience that usually goes for horror, and the extra cash from 3D theatres will inflate its grosses nicely. I'd also peg Gran Torino for a smaller drop, which is in keeping with Eastwood's most recent films, 20-30% at most.

i wish defiance would win but i know there is no way that will happen! as a fan of king of queens, i am looking forward to paul blart. i dont know that i care too much about what bloody valentine does but i dont know how well it will do because of the "R' rating (what with the 3-d boobs).

With the extra money from 3D, and the novelty of the first horror movie in the new 3D, those might be packed. KC Star gave it 3 stars, so it can't be too bad. I am curious what violence and nudity are like in 3D.
