			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><a rel="attachment wp-att-8841" href="http://filmonic.com/alice-set-dominate-box-office-2010/poster_alice_banner"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8841" src="http://filmonic.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/poster_Alice_Banner.jpg" alt="poster Alice Banner " width="500" height="284" title="poster Alice Banner" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Alice in Wonderland</strong> set an all-time record for 3D releases and the January-April period last weekend by opening with a staggering $116.1 million in North America, way more then anyone could have expected. For Tim Burton it was his biggest opening ever while for Johnny Deep it was his 2nd biggest (<strong>Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man&#8217;s Chest</strong> opened with $135.6 million in 2006).</p>
<p>This weekend there are 4 movies opening wide, <strong>Green Zone</strong>, a thriller from Universal starring Matt Damon in 3003 theaters, <strong>She&#8217;s Out of My League</strong>, a romantic comedy from Paramount in 2956 theaters, <strong>Remember Me</strong>, starring Robert Pattison from Summit Entertainment in 2212 theaters and <strong>Our Family Wedding</strong>, a comedy starring Forest Whitaker from Fox Searchlight in 1605 theaters. None of them stand any chances of making more money then <strong>Alice in Wonderland</strong>,<strong> </strong>fact. Actually none of them look like they could open with more then 20 million, if that, while Alice might be in for a weekend of $50-$55 million and maybe more. That should bring it to a total of around 200 million in North America in just 10 days, easily making it one of the top 15 fastest 10-days grossing movies ever, either above or below <strong>Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire</strong> with $201 million (top is <a href="http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/grossbydays.htm?days=10&amp;p=.htm" target="_blank">here</a>).<span id="more-8840"></span></p>
<p><strong>Green Zone</strong> is the movie most likely to finish second with around $20 million. This is another collaboration between director Paul Greengrass of <strong>Bourne Supremacy</strong> and <strong>Bourne Ultimatum</strong> fame and Matt Damon, the star of those movies. The Bourne series has been very successful and Universal are planning a forth one in the coming years, but <strong>Green Zone</strong> isn&#8217;t Bourne, it is an R-rated thriller with average reviews (48% on RottenTomatoes).</p>
<p><strong>She&#8217;s Out of My League</strong> looks as run-of-the-mill as you can get and having Jay Baruchel from <strong>Tropic Thunder</strong> and <strong>Knocked Up</strong> is not going to help it to much. Let&#8217;s see, Romantic Comedy-ish, check, R rating, check, average reviews (49% on RT) &#8230;yeah, this isn&#8217;t <strong>Knocked Up</strong> or even <strong>40 Year Old Virgin</strong>. Probably $15 million for 3rd place.</p>
<p>Now how did <strong>Remember Me</strong> miss the opportunity to open closer to Valentine&#8217;s Day? So now this movie is standing only on Robert Pattison&#8217;s <strong>Twilight</strong> shoulders. I&#8217;m seeing 13-14 million but this could surprise and maybe even go for 3rd place, if not 4th place is also good.</p>
<p><strong>My Family Wedding</strong> is a PG-13 comedy with awful reviews that could find an audience with the Tyler Perry crowd, maybe, maybe not. I still see this around $10 million for 5th place.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Alice in Wonderland</strong> (BuenaVista) <strong>$53M</strong> ($198.6M)</li>
<li><strong>Green Zone</strong> (Universal) <strong>$20M</strong> (NEW)</li>
<li><strong>She&#8217;s Out of My League</strong> (Paramount) <strong>$16M</strong> (NEW)</li>
<li><strong>Remember Me</strong> (Summit) <strong>$14M</strong> (NEW)</li>
<li><strong>My Family Wedding</strong> (FoxSearchlight) <strong>$10M</strong> (NEW)</li>

Yes, this is an Iraq film. A $100 million Iraq film to be exact, which was a risky move from Universal as these types of films haven&#8217;t exactly blown up the box office. </p>
<p>Damon is reunited with Paul Greengrass who directed him in <strong>The Bourne Supremacy </strong>and <strong>The Bourne Ultimatum</strong>, and as a result it has a Bourne vibe to it. Watch below:</p>
