Opening 5/31/13 (2nd Week)

Early chatter from critics and fans does not look promising for either Now You See Me or After Earth.
SUBMIT YOUR PREDICTIONS FOR ROTTEN TOMATOES CRITICS PERCENTAGE AS WELL AS OPENING WEEKEND BOX OFFICE NUMBERS IN THE FORM BELOW BEFORE MIDNIGHT ON 5/30/13 OTHERWISE YOUR PREDICTIONS WONT COUNT! IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE FINAL RATINGS FOR EACH MOVIE, I WILL WAIT UNTIL SUNDAY AT MIDNIGHT (END OF OPENING WEEKEND) TO TALLY ROTTEN TOMATOES RATINGS AND BOX OFFICE NUMBERS! RESULTS WILL BE POSTED BY MONDAY NIGHT ON THE RESULTS PAGE!
(Rotten Tomatoes is a website that takes reviews from film critics and calculates an overall average of how well the film performed from the critics, giving the movie a fresh rating (60% or higher), rotten rating (59% or lower) or certified fresh rating (around and above 75%.))

After Earth

Similar Films

MIB 3 (2012)  70%
      OW: $54,592,779



Super 8 (2011) 82% (CF)
      OW: $35,451,168

After Earth will most likely win this weekend at the box office, but the question is by how much and how good will the duo of Jaden and Will Smith be. The premise and trailer looks promising, so I would not be surprised if this film has solid reviews, but I have not seen that much advertising. All of these question will be answered in just a few short days anyways, just drop your predictions below.

My Prediction: 55%/$31.5M




Now You See Me
The Presige (2006) 76% (CF)
    OW: $14,801,808

Inception (2010) 86% (CF)
    OW: $62,785,337



Although this film is on my most anticipated list, Now You See Me fails to receive any attention throughout the massive summer box office schedule. It will be interesting to see how well this movie does in terms of ratings. I do not expect this film to beat out After Earth, but I hope to see some solid ratings. 

My Prediction: 62%/$25.5M
