I just discovered this thread, so too late to bet on things this weekend. Just curious, what kind of limits do books allow you to wager on these?
Good Luck,

Bart,
WSEX has $300 limits, but most can bet as much as they want as the odds change with every bet.
OLY has different limits. Usually no lower than $200 and no higher than $500. They allow you to usually bet again when the odds or the line changes.
monkey 82,
One can't win them all, but I think Hot Chick has a very good chance to go OVER. As for Star Trek, in an even money bet if I HAD TO take a side I would take the over at 22, but I didn't make that play. I never like to see you on the other side of a play, but such is betting /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif .

Gotta disagree with monkey82. "Trek" is always good for around a 20 million bow, and will likely take the #1 spot, followed by Maid in Manhattan and Hot Chick.
HC is the only broad-appeal comedy out there for the juvey set, and amazingly, Rob Schneider is usually good for at least a $10 mil opening. It was a solid bet, and I have two units at WSEX on the OVER 9.5 mil. Be very surprised if it didn't make 11-13 over the weekend. Analyze That was considered a bit of a bomb and still did around 11 mil, and that was for an "R" flick.
Now stop getting us riled. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

wait for the sun estimates. hot chick is in 2200 theaters. sat business might end up being significantly higher by 2 or 3 million. if that happens then you will probably get there. plus, they might inflate their estimates on sun to get it above 10 and then downgrade it on tuesday when official numbers come out.
when are these bets graded? if they are graded on sundays they are graded on estimates which are always inflated.
AC
ps. my estimates had maid at 6.5 FYI

Y, AC the later release (by only a couple minutes) had Maid at 6.5. I tend to think that one is probably right although neither is the actual take which most movies will have official tomorrow, but showbiz (6.5) is generally the best.
The grading for these bets is based on actuals of course /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif .
I have to agree with monkey in that there is almost no way that Hot Chick goes over. It would have to have multiplier of over 4 which doesn't happen.
