Large and I saw the same trailer at the same NATO screening and I have to disagree. I like Ben Affleck, I liked the previous Jack Ryan movies, and I liked the idea of Sum of All Fears. Then I saw the trailer...now I'm not interested. I think Bourne Identity looks great. I'm not wild about SOAF, but then I'm the guy who thought Changing Lanes looked like a total dog and apparently it has done decent business. So who knows. The movies I'm really high on right now are MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING (a big fat hit for us and a great feel good film), ENIGMA (we open it next week), Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN (a great film), and MONSOON WEDDING (we are at week 13

)

It was very solid for my account in Lexington KY (wish I could have played it longer). However, I opened it last week in Indianapolis IN, and the first week was the second best gross I've ever had in the theatre. Last night was almost double the opening Friday. I just love it when this happens!!

As we will still have the expensive Star Wars in it's 3rd, I'm likely going to opt for a counter-program such as "Enigma" or even "It's A Boy" (going wider on the 24th) and keep more of the gate. Like you, our opening day of Star Wars wasn't stellar. We'll try to bring in some class.
