I throw up my hands with these openers.  I wouldn't be surprised if two of them don't even make the top 10.  Cloud Atlas, a month ago, would have seemed like an easy #1, but Warner is only opening it in 2000 theaters.  The reviews are all over the place, and the run time is just under three hours.  I'd expect this to be the type of movie audiences will hate, and the low screen count means the studio just isn't confident.  The last Silent Hill movie opened in the low 20's, but this sequel has been in development forever.  The audience for this probably has lost interest and the ads make the film look very cheap.  Then again, there's always a chance of Resident Evil-esque numbers.  Fun Size is, I believe, Nickelodeon Movies first PG-13 release and that's what will prevent it from breaking out.  Better luck next year with Evil Dead, Jane Levy!  Lastly, Chasing Mavericks is the only thing that everyone agrees on - it'll probably debut in low single digits, perhaps just outside the top 10.  Everything last week had small drops, and given the low interest of the new movies that'll probably occur again this week.  Both Argo and Hotel Transylvania have a decent shot at winning the weekend.
