I really thought Dead Silence would've been met with better appreciation this weekend and that Premonition and I think I love my wife would take 3rd and 4th place behind 300, but I guess I underestimated the power of word of mouth. Audiences are raving about the amazing scenes in 300, ultimately shaming any other contenders.
But I guess you can't really give 300 all the credit. It seems even Wild Hogs beat out those three films shoving them lower on the box office list:
3. Premonition - $18 mil
4. Dead Silence - $7.7 mil
5. I think I love my wife - $5.7 mil
Surely the box office slots will play a game of musical chairs after this Friday's line up with films like Teeange Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Last Mimzy, Shooter, Reign Over Me, and The Hills Have Eyes II premiering. I'll be seeing Shooter (because of my obsession with Mark Walhberg), but sadly I'm also going to squeeze in a 300 viewing...gotta know what all the hullabaloo is about.
