Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
hmmm, i don't think any slate so far looks like a clear cut front runner.
Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
I think Surfer's slate is the strongest so far.

I don't know, there's a lot of potential in several slates. Hard to say. Surfer's ain't bad, yes. I like the potential of Banks' too.

Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
I seem to remember Boussh saying something similar last year, six. We all know how that panned out... I'd say Chien's is fairly strong too at the moment, but there is not much between all of us, as we all have one or two movies which may not pan out.

Yes, it seems like a thin line for now...

Barcas slate is looking pretty healthy at the moment

Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
On the other end of the scale, I think W's and UDM's are the riskiest. Dragon Tattoo could underperform (not like Boosch is predicting, but I think it may peak at 75mil), Rise of the Apes could be a disaster, and Friends with Benefit could be a stinker. Then again, they could also surprise.

I think Shryke's slate is also quite risky. We'll see how that turns out.

Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
So how would you rank the slates from best to worst?

Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
Hell, six, I think you're being a little kind. I think every single one of my films can under perform, . The Hangover got most of it's cash with repeat viewings. If it's awful, it could pan out between $100 and 150 M. Dragon Tattoo could be anywhere between $50 and $250 million (now it's tracking $160 M/4 weeks). Apes could be the start of a major reboot franchise or could tank like Burton's version. If people are tired of the Paranormal series, PA3 could make as big a drop as the second one did (about $20 M). Bridesmaids could do a MacGruber or be a mini-Hangover. And I have never heard anyone say "Man, Clash of the Titans is great. I hope they make a sequel."
That said, it's going to be very hard to pick now. After PA3, I feel the field is thinning, though I have a couple I really like up my sleeve.

Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
$160 million on The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo? Against Sherlock Holmes, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Mission Impossible and Tintin?

HSX is the only tracking that far out that I know of. That's what it says there. Not saying that I trust it, but I personally think it'll be the start of a major franchise.

Sherlock Holmes will take its audience (it also has Noomi Rapace, the original Lisabeth, in a major role).

Re: 2011-12 Full Year Slates (So Far)
And now I will explain my picks so far:
Larry Crowne - Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts (both modern screen legends) paired in a comedy that ties in with real life (older adults returning to college or entering college to better themselves or improve their job outlook). Combined with a Independence Day weekend release and Tom Hanks returning to his comedic roots, this could be a big hit and a potential Oscar contender.
Horrible Bosses - I know what I said about Jason Sudeikis being box office poison but I feel that Jason Bateman, Jamie Foxx, Kevin Spacey and an against-type Jennifer Aniston (though box office poison, her performance is said to be Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder good and a possible comeback) will more than compensate for that. Also, the film has been testing very well and the director's last film grossed over $100 million. Expect Warner Bros. to attach the trailer to The Hangover Part II so to get a similar reception to when they attached The Town to Inception.
Captain America - I was expecting this film to flop too but patriotic films tend to do well and the film is basically required viewing before The Avengers next May (hence the subtitle The First Avenger). It could be like The Hulk but it could also be like Iron Man.
The Smurfs - yes, the film looks awful and I was burned on last year's Marmaduke. But seeing that children eat up this type of movie (a recent example being Hop, despite being a carbon copy of Alvin and the Chipmunks) and even some adults have shown interest (due to nostalgia factor), I do expect a good gross.
30 Minutes or Less - the star and director of Zombieland are reteaming for this. Also seeing that Jesse Eisenberg is everyone's favorite nerdy actor right now, Sony will want to keep the gravy train running.
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows - it's a sequel to a well-received and high grossing movie that won Robert Downey Jr. a Golden Globe and relaunched Guy Ritchie's career. And they also have Moriarty and Mycroft in this one while also adding Noomi Rapace to the cast. Do I need to keep going?
