This week we have three weekend openers and for the first time that I can remember, a market for movie after it has already had an opening weekend. Where the Wild Things Are seems poised to easily take 1st place. Fighting for 2nd will be Couples Retreat on its 2nd weekend, Law Abiding Citizen and Paranormal Activity which opened last week with only 100 theaters. It still opened to an outstanding $7.9 Million and made $49,379 on average per theater. That's a new record for movies that open with 100+ theaters. The Stepfather is easily going to lose out of the movies opening this weekend.
