predictions09 1 24 Box Office Predictions: Looks Like Underworld Will Take Blart

I admit that last weeks numbers weren’t entirely perfect, but anyone who had seen Paul Blart: Mall Cop couldn’t have imagined that it could do so well. It looks like Underworld: Rise of the Lycans will be taking the number one spot, hopefully leaving Blart in the dust. The only question is will Gran Torino be able to kick it’s ass as well? We’ll see. Oh! And check out Slumdog Millionaire climbing that chart one spot at a time. Go Slumdog!
