Paris, je t'aime did south of 5mm. Are we really expecting a 4 fold increase on this apparent copy. A major market release in october from vivendi. I could see this maybe do well in NY, and I understand there are about 50 stars attached to the movie (yeah bond adjust, boo commission), but without a knock it out of the park weekend high psa, I cannot see this do anywhere near 17mm even if it spreads over 12 weeks. Opens second week of couples retreat and going into halloween horror fest. A "romance" hardly seems like fair that will grab substantial audience in the few theatres it may grab initially.
And while I am writing [gentb]... really
