Alex & Emma @ Intertops

I'm going with 8.9 or less at 4.5 odds. I smell another stinker here! Never heard of this movie. It's only playing in 2200+ theaters. But it has Kate Hudson and Luke Wilson in it. But I watched the trailer and it looks like monkey vomit. See for yourself:

Even for a romantic comedy, it looks absolutely aweful. I'm not a fan of this genre, so feel free to correct me on this one, I've already jumped on it knowing Intertop's history of pulling or changing the odds on their props.

Heh, I'm on the exact opposite end of the spectrum -- I like the odds of it going OVER $14 million, though not enough for me to make a play.

It has striking similarities to "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" in actors (Hudson/Mconaghey compared to Hudson/Wilson) and marketing. How to Lose a Guy pulled in $8100 per theater, so by my counts that puts this flick at right around $17 million.

Not everyone is gonna go see The Hulk ya know

Not making a play on it though.

I like your thinkig though, Sound Of Silence.

She is very popular... my girfriend has been hounding me all week to see it.

14 is very possible.

I just thought that "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" had a lot more going for it storywise than this film, where that movie looked kinda funny, this one looks totally boring. I just don't see how a romantic movie about some writer and his girlfriend writing a book together can generate that much interest. Vin Diesel was a huge draw for XXX, which looked cool in the previews, but look at how his last two movies did. Under 8.9 is stretching it a bit, I might predict a higher number, but not much higher than that for a new Cate Hudson flick, but you know the drill. It was +350.

Yeah, I know the drill...
