Bourne arrives with mediocre reviews, sadly.  People are apparently hardcore Team Damon.  Poor Team Renner.  The Campaign will do solid numbers, but no one will remember in it in a few months.  Hope Springs begins what could be a leggy run.  It has no real competition until the late September Oscar bait pours in.  If it overperforms this weekend, it has an outside shot of $100m.  Its problem is that the majority of pic's audience are the people who say they are too scared to go to the movies again.  If audiences do return, this could be a nice comeback weekend for Summer 2012.

ETA: Oh, and something called Nitro Circus 3D opens today in 800+ theatres.  $1m for the 5-day, if that.
