I would be willing to place a wager with ya Sam (It will have to be a gentleman's wager since we have no means of collecting on each other) that Sin City buries Beauty Shop at the box office.

You are giving those movies waaaay too much credit.

Queen Latifah + Black comedy = #1 spot? Ha! Beauty Shop won't come anywhere close to seeing the same succes as the Barber Shop movies.

Fever Pitch? Are you fucking kidding me? Jimmy Fallon is a popular lead? How'd Taxi do? And it's not like Drew Barrymore is uncapable of making a bomb. She does it all the time.

Sahara will do alright but it's a family adventure movie. Not exactly the same demographic that would be going to see Sin City.

If you ask me, Sin City doesn't really have any competition at all until Amityville.

So what do say, Sam? Gentlemen's bet? Sin City vs. Beauty Shop. I say Sin City demolishes it at the box office. I'll even give you $1,000,000 head start. (Kinda like a point spread.) Sin City will beat it by more than a million so I'm not worried.
