$30M sounds more right for "M&C," which literally has NO competition for the older, particularly action-oriented segment ("Runaway Jury" and "Mystic River" are about done, and they weren't action-oriented anyway). "Gladiator" opened north of $30M -- I don't know why this one won't. The PG-13 rating won't hurt it either. I also see no reason why "Looney Tunes" won't make more than $14M -- sure, "Elf" and "Brother Bear" still have some power, but it's LOONEY TUNES! And the reviews aren't bad... That said, $20M is the most I would expect out of it. I don't believe there's any chance that "Revolutions" will be #1. If not "Elf" then certainly "M&C."
