Frak it. I’m not going totally random, but I might as well be.

1) The Vow – don’t recall a thing about this one. I’m picking this number one simply because the twitter index at boxoffice.com has it there.
2)Safe house – BoxofficeMojo has phantom menace as snagging second, but I’m going to say the rebellion against 3d will be in full swing and SW is not going to do that good.
3) Star Wars Phantom Menace 3d – people may be rebelling against 3d but this is star wars coming back to the theaters–the rabid fans will see it for sure this weekend.
4)Chronicle – I think this might still do good due to word of mouth, but then again it could do really bad instead.
5)Journey 2 – Gag.

If I get above a 20 this week, I’ll be happy. not very hopeful though. So much for my streak of 25 scores…

Ok, so Monty says:

1) The Vow
2) Safe House
3) Star Wars I 3D (and this from a kid who actually _likes_ JarJar. Yeah, I know, but can’t disown him, he was the target demo for the character when he saw the movie.)
4) J2: Mysterious Island
5) Chronicle

I (almost) agree with him:

1) The Vow- it’s all there is for the pre- V-Day weekend. And I hear it’s tracking really well.

2) Star Wars I 3D- sentimental, that’s me. And I imagine this is the kids movie for the week, because all the geek parents will ignore that “pec-pop of love” movie.

3) Safe House- the thing I like most about the trailer is that the movie is actually set in South Africa (Cape Town or Johannesburg, I forget which) which probably means I’m just tired of movies that all look like Vancouver.

4) J2: Mysterious Island- oh, if only Dr. Shrinker were part of this… he IS a madman with an evil mind!

5) Chronicle- making up for underestimating it last week (tho’ I blame the Super Bowl being east coast teams = the west coast going to the movies.)

and daHobbit says ask her in the morning, we’ll see if she beats the deadline.

5) Chronicle
