This will be one of the lowest weekends for the box-office in the past three decades. Insane! End of summer was a huge miscalculation on the studios' part. Poor scheduling all around! Only two films are opening this weekend and both are just barely going wide. Close Encounters is being re-released for one week only, while Tulip Fever opens after a 2 year delay.

The only good news is that September actually looks promising and will be kicked off in a big way next week. Be back next weekend with summer wrap up!
