How much will " Speed Racer " earn in its opening weekend?

Settled as $25 million or Less...

This question is, how much do you think the new big budget movie "Speed Racer" will make in its first three days at the North American Box Office (May 9th, 10th, and 11th, 2008.)? Predictions settle as such: If for example it earns $35.999 million, then the "$31 million to $35 million" WILL WIN, not the "$36 million to $40 million". It must at least reach $36 million even, in order for "$36 million to $40 million" prediction to win.

according to BoxOfficeMojo... things not looking so good for Speed Racer. Friday's totals are about $5 mil, getting beaten badly by both Iron Man and What Happens In Vegas
posted 1 day ago
FRIDAY Box Office Figures are in and IRON MAN remains #1 by nearly 2.5 - 1 in the dollar count!!!

Estimates for the 24hr Friday period:
#1 ... $14.666 million ... "Iron Man"
#2 ..... $6.731 million ... "What Happens in Vegas..."
#3 ..... $6.218 million ... "Speed Racer"

So it looks like Speed will end up with $16 - $20 million .... Man I was soooo hoping for more :-/
