I don't think it will do well.
This one could really become the meat in the sandwich, considering what is scheduled in front and behind it. As usual, the distribs are going with their same old formula, front loading the summer schedule. This time it could be a disaster for exhibitors, with the economy being what it is. Too few dollars chasing too many "big" releases, and I'm going to predict folks will be having to make diffucult decisions, because they can't afford to see everything.
Think as a movie goer would: If you only had money to see two movies in May, what would they be?
Mike- What the devil are you going to do? May has to be a booking nightmare for a single screen player.

Don't forget about You Don't Mess With the Zohan on June 6, The Incredible Hulk on June 13, and The Love Guru on June 20.
I think it looks like a pretty good June, but some of these will undoubtedly flop.
