I missed my box-office prediction for last week but the week before I did pretty good. I predicted The Dark Knight was going to finish on top with Step Brothers finishing second and I was pretty close on the weekend earnings as well.

Anyways, this week, will the Dark Knight remain on top? Last week they barely beat out The Mummy but I’m going to take a shot and say they will barely finish first, again.

Now I have my doubts but I thought about it and saw what was coming out this weekend and didn’t see any real box-office contenders. I mean, Pineapple Express came out, looks pretty funny but I highly doubt it’s going to do better than Step Brothers’ opening weekend of $30 million.

I know their Superbad movie pulled in about $33 million the opening weekend but the downfall is the fact that the movie is rated R and how many pot smokers will actually pay to see the movie?

Also, the chick flick Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 is out but like I said, it’s a chick flick. And I don’t think there will be enough chicks forcing their boyfriends to watch it with them. Let me correct myself, I think the boyfriends will take a stand and not be a victim to this movie (including myself!).

So, this is my predictions:

1. Pineapple Express with $31 million – Hey, I’m going to support the movie this weekend!
2. The Dark Knight with $27 million
3. The Mummy with $22 million

Well, I know you guys thought I was going to pick the Dark Knight but think they will be dethroned this week by the pot smoking snack munchers!

The chick flick won’t make it in the top 3…

That’s my predictions, what do you guys think?

In it’s second weekend out, my prediction is The Dark Knight will take the number one spot again. I know that’s not a shot in the dark or anything, especially the fact that it made $150+ million in it’s opening weekend. But if you look at this weeks opening movies, Step Brothers and X-Files, it’s not exactly the best competition to dethrone The Dark Knight , is it?

I think it’s quite obvious The Dark Knight will not make the same amount in it’s first week but I think it’ll take in at least another $50+ million.

The movie that I think will take the second spot is a toss-up. I mean, there are a bunch of hardcore X-Files fans but that movie didn’t really get the needed exposure. So, with that said, I will go with Step Brothers to steal the number two spot taking in around $30 million. Honestly, I feel I’m giving a little too much for that movie because the fact that it’s rated R and I’m sure not that many adults will want to see that movie.

The third spot is defaulted to X-Files with $20-$25 million. Again, this is just a prediction and I can be completely wrong. But seriously, they didn’t get that much publicity for the movie and do people really want to see them in a movie?

Hey, that’s my prediction. What do you think?

We all knew The Dark Knight sequel was going to make over $100 million during the first weekend and many predicted it was going to break the previous record; and it did.

Christopher Nolan’s dark sequel took in $155.4 million in The Dark Knight’s opening weekend. The previous record, I believe, was held by Spider-Man 3 which made $151.1 million in the opening weekend.

But this weekend of breaking Hollywood movie records didn’t stop there. This weekend also topped the most the movie box-office has made in a three-day weekend. And yes, that includes all the movies like Mamma Mia which took in $27.6 million on it’s opening weekend.

The previous record was a $218.4 million weekend in July 2007 when Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest came out.

Wait, the records aren’t done yet. The Dark Knight is projected to make $220 million in its first week alone which would be more than what Nolan’s Batman Begins movie made in its entire U.S. run alone.

Hold on, there are a few more records to mention:

The Dark Knight had the biggest midnight release taking in $18.5 million, the biggest weekend on IMAX screens with $6.2 million, top single-day take on a Friday with $67.9 million and showed on the most screens at 4,366.

Now that’s what you call making an impact on your opening week!
