How come Sky High is not in the poll? It looks pretty good from the preview.

Not particularly rooting for it, but I think Stealth will squeak out on top.

I'd guess Sky High as well. The other movies will split the adult crowd, but all the kiddies (and many of their parents) will be at Sky High.

I read somewhere where the "experts" think Wedding Crashers and Charlie will go 1 and 2 again, but I fully expected Stealth to win out myself. So we'll see...

I really don't think Sky High has a chance, although I admit I forgot it was even opening when I did the poll. It's only opening in 2700 theaters vs. 3500 for Stealth and I at least haven't seen much advertising for it. Don't watch TV much though.

Wedding Crashers seems to be maintaining strong word of mout each week, so I expect it might jump to #1.
