Maytime Derby

Now with Diet Add On.

The Nikkster has early numbers ...

1. Nightmare on Elm Street (NL/WB) NEW [3,332 Runs] -- Friday $15M, Estimated Weekend $35M

2. How To Train Your Dragon (DWA/Par) Week 6 [3,426 Runs] -- Friday $2.5M, Estimated Weekend $10M, Estimated Cume $191.6M

3. Date Night (Fox) Week 4 [3,093 Runs] -- Friday $2.4M, Estimated Weekend $7.5M, Estimated Cume $73.5M

5. The Losers (Dark Castle/WB) Week 2 [2,936 Runs] -- Friday $1.9M (-41%), Estimated Weekend $5.5M, Estimated Cume $17.6M

6. Furry Vengeance (Summit) NEW [2,997 Runs] -- Friday $1.7M, Estimated Weekend $6M

By next week-end, the Dragon will have flapped its way across the $200 million marker. Then a couple of weeks later (May 21) Shrek bolts from the starting gate ...

B.O. Mojo collects the semi-final weekend grosses.

1) Nightmare on Elm Street -- $32.2 million

2) How to Train Your Box Office Numbers -- $10.8 million

3) Date Night -- $7.6 million

4) The Back-Up Plan -- $7.2 million

5) Furry Vengeance -- $6.5 million.

Both Dragon and Date Night held well. Both had declines in the twenty percentiles.

It looks like we are not going to have Furry vengeance sequel.

God, I felt so sorry for Brendan Fraser when I saw the ads for that horrible movie. They reminded me of the ads for the Tim Allen version of The Shaggy Dog. Jesus christ, why does Hollywood make such stupid comedies? Thank god this one bombed. Hopefully the next one - especially if it stars the insufferable (and ahem, overexposed) Jason Segal, will too.
