Box Office Predictions: ‘Think Like a Man Too’ Ready for #1, Eastwood’s ‘Jersey Boys’ Don’t Stand a Chance
Think Like a Man Too will grab the victory this weekend, even with a smallish 2,000 theaters. That’s based on tracking, sequel precedence, a largely under-served minority, and extremely weak opening competition – it’s all working for Think Like a Man Too.
