Predict The Box Office! 5/23/03

I want to see how this goes. I know it's friday already, but I want to have a competion to see who can most accurately predict the box office. This means numbers, not only positions. Feel free to delete this if you don't like it, ops.
U.S. New *WIDE* Releases Are:
Bruce Almighty (3,482 Theaters/51% Fresh Rate @ Rotten Tomatoes.com)
The In-Laws (2,652 Theaters/42% Fresh Rate)
X2 drops 423 Theaters/Matrix stays at 3,603 (Now the widest)/Daddy Day Care expands into 64 more theaters/Lizzie drops 540 theaters/Holes drops 470.

My Predictions Are:
1. Matrix - 58 Million
2. Bruce Almighty - 45 Million
3. Daddy Day Care - 15 Million
4. X2 - 11 Million
5. The In-Laws - 10 Million

And...for those in the U.K. predict the amount the Matrix Reloaded makes. It's opened there today, right?

My Predictions Are:
1. Matrix - 63 Million
2. Bruce Almighty - 43 Million
3. Daddy Day Care - 13 Million
4. X2 - 12 Million
5. The In-Laws - 8 Million

Next week (hopefully) Wrong Turn will own!!

i hope bruce almighty does well. it looks really funny.

my predicitions:
1. Matrix - 65 Million (its memorial weekend right?)
2. Bruce Almighty - 40 Million
3. Daddy Day Care - 25 Million
4. X2 - 15 Million
5. The In-Laws - 10 Million

I want to change mine to have Bruce and Matrix tied at 53 Mil. a Piece, but friday's estimate grosses come out soon, so bleh. I didn't say you had to put it in the exact order of my predictions! Here were our averages, over 3 people:
1. The Matrix Reloaded - 62 Million
2. Bruce Almighty - 42.6 Million
3. Daddy Daycare - 17.6 Million
4. X2 - 12.6 Million
5. The In-Laws - 9.3 Million

And our predictions are dead wrong...
1 BRUCE ALMIGHTY - $20,400,000
2 THE MATRIX RELOADED - $11,210,000
3 DADDY DAY CARE - $3,339,000
4 X2: X-MEN UNITED - $2,523,000
5 THE IN-LAWS - $1,935,000

My projections Including Monday!

1 BRUCE ALMIGHTY - $86,000,000
2 THE MATRIX RELOADED - $50,000,000
3 DADDY DAY CARE - $18,700,000
4 X2: X-MEN UNITED - $12,500,000
5 THE IN-LAWS - $9,000,000

Here are the results for the 4-day weekend, based on the 4 day estimates:

Rank/Name/Bruce %/Matrix %/Daddy %/X2 %/The In-Laws %

1. CczuAzul - 52.3, 85, 80.2, 84, 89 - 78.1 % Accurate
2. filetfish - 46.5, 76, 74.8, 86, 89 - 74.46 % Accurate
3. LS_Gold - 50, 78.4, 69.5, 92.3, 89.8 - 63.4 % Accurate
4. Mystic Slippers - 0 % Accurate !
5. DragonWar - Disqualified!

Team Averages - 49.5, 79.6, 94.1, 96.9, 95 - 83.02 % Accurate (Seems unlikely...but our team averages for Daddy Day Care, X2, and The In-Laws were all over 94 % Accurate)
