Opening Weekend: The Incredible Hulk

Is a remake of a film just five years old too soon? Will kids want to see this no matter what? Does the inclusion of Ed Norton and/or Tim Roth help?

I never saw the Ang Lee Hulk but have heard it equally praised and slammed.

Since this one is not only not the first Hulk theatrical movie but not even the first one this decade, and not a traditional sequel, I can't see too many people rushing right out to see it.  I think it's going to perform far worse than they expect.  I originally voted under $30 but that's a little hasty.  I'll change it to $30-40.

Around 45-48m.  Something like 50% of what Iron Man did.

Do you think criticism matters for a film like this? Last I checked it was also doing around 70% on RT.

The Incredible Hulk smashed through to first place in the box office with an estimated $54M
