    Captain America opens this Friday...but...

    ...thanks to Harry Potter record-braking box office numbers...it's not looking good for Captain America...

    Box Office Report: Final ‘Harry Potter’ Pic Grosses All-Time Domestic Best of $168.6 Million - Yahoo! Movies

    Bloody hell...why did it have to be just one week after Harry Potter???

    I predict a second-place finish this Friday at the box office for the debuting Captain America...I'm sad to report.

    I hope I'm wrong...

          I think Transformers 3 is already up to 300 Mill in 2&1/2 weeks .... Only Pirates has Grossed Nearly as Much I believe. Cap will bring in atleast 200 Mill when is all said and Done. Parents and Grandparents remember and Know this Guy .... , imo He's the Last of the Big Name Super Heroes to get a Movie in recent years in the Theaters.

          BTW ... I'll be there on Sat ..., and Will never watch a Potter Flick after the 1st Nonsense. I don't uderstand the Allure.

            I was never much of a Potter film fan either, but the last 2 or 3 movies have been excellent. Ever since the tone got darker..

              We're all set for Cap this weekend, and I'm hoping it has a great opening weekend. It'll make it's money back easily and likely generate a nice profit, but the summer was always Potter's regardless.

              I'd love it if Cap owns the #2 spot for the summer, but that'll probably got to the Transformers.

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                MIB41(Tom) and I will definitely be seeing the good Captain opening weekend. I'm hoping that Harry shot his wad this weekend and maybe people would rather see a MAN throwing his shield than a BOY playing with his wand...

                      I'm with you, man...I'm not into Harry Potter either (although I do eventually watch some of them on DVD)...I'm gonna watch Captain America at the theater multiple times...

                            If only Ryan Reynolds was cast as Cap...
                            I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                            If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.
