[uggggggggghhhhhh-- Sailor... garter...]
Okay, now that THAT thought is over-- although I think hers are much more accurate, frankly, I have my serious doubts that "Phantom Menace" is going to be quite that high. The last two weeks it's been keeling over without any direct competition. "Austin Powers" is direct competition. I see "PM" with $20M-$25M. That "Austin Powers" number is as good as any, although I'd like to remind everybody that this is a highly hyped sequel and "Waterboy" was a surprise hit original (ignoring "Happy Gilmore") from a similar SNL-type comedia and made $40M its first weekend. Of course, it had no competition. So maybe Sailor will hit that one right on the money.
sincerely,
C. F. L.
