With Week 2, you're looking at the individual movies. It's Sahara AND Fever Pitch. I'm not looking for either one to do all that great, though Sahara will probably hit #1 for a week, but combined they're going to hurt Sin City's numbers.
And I think you're giving the average moviegoer too much credit. I heard the reaction the Beautey Shop trailer got down here. Same with Fever Pitch.
It's not the individual things that are going to hurt Sin City, it's the fact that they're all pretty much hitting it at once. Beauty Shop, Fever Pitch & Sahara, Amittyville, the fact that you can't really tell what the movies about, visual style, lack of discernable lead, et cetera. Its core audience is gonna see the movie the first week it's out. Other than that, it won't do much of anything.
Hope I'm wrong, though.
