Box-Office Oracle: Jul. 4 - Jul. 6, 2008

Hancock will win big but a full five movies will crack double figures!

#1 movie predicted correctly: 10 Weeks in a Row
Keep in mind that these are weekend estimates only. Now then, if you're like me and upset that Will Smith didn't record a hit rap song for Hancock I'm proposing some sort of internet petition. I have the opening lyric of the Hancock song ready and everything. "Here come the Haaaaancoooooock / Galaxy defender." Let's get the ball rolling people.
Estimate: $63.4 million
The tough thing about these numbers is getting them to gibe with my five day forecast. WALL-E won't be dropping much though, I can tell you that.
Estimate: $45.1 million
It's getting nice buzz which will help it take a chunk out of Hancock's flank. Should have done that song Big Willie.
Estimate: $31.3 million
This is a difficult movie to project in that I haven't ever met a fan. But I suspect they are out there... lurking.
Estimate: $13.8 million
I'd like to propose a moment of silence for the Sonics being ripped away from Seattle. Ready? Go. There, now we've all silently reflected on how greedy millionaires and billionaires can be.
Estimate: $10.4 million
Oddly enough I just saw an ad for this. It's the old "let 'em know we're still in theaters!" trick. I respect that.
Estimate: $6.0 million
My guess is this franchise won't be getting another reboot anytime soon.
Estimate: $4.3 million
This one will though. Get ready for Shia full throttle in the summer of 2011.
Estimate: $2.9 million
They should have counselors standing by as they let the crowds out of this one. Either that or tasers. Someone needs to save these people from themselves.
Estimate: $2.3 million
I'm dropping Zohan from the top ten but anxiously awaiting the Blu-Ray DVD announcement. I think I'll like it much better then.
Estimate: $1.7 million
