Valen Times Three

For the romantically inclined this weekend features three new wide release kissy-kissy movies -- ABOUT LAST NIGHT (Sony), ENDLESS LOVE (Universal), and WINTER'S TALE (Warner Bros.).

Which one will gross the highest? I'm going to throw out ENDLESS LOVE right off the top, its a remake of an 80's nostalgia piece and it doesn't have Brooke Shields or Tom Cruise or Matt Lauer. Boring.

WINTER'S TALE looks, um, ambitious, with big billious names and a RottenTomatoes rating of 5%. Hmmm..

And then there's ABOUT LAST NIGHT, with the lead Kevin Hart coming off a very hot month in the action movie RIDE ALONG. How could ABOUT LAST NIGHT lose?

Because the preview for WINTER'S TALE made me cry, that's why! Complete schlocky deliciousness! It's insane and huge and that's why I pick WINTER'S TALE to win the 3-way race this weekend.

And what's out there for people who aren't embracing liplocks and SweeTarts? THE LEGO MOVIE will crush for sure, but by how much? I think newcomer remake ROBOCOP won't even get half of THE LEGO MOVIE take this weekend. Mwah mwah!!!

Track the weekend Box Office on Box Office Mojo and play D's March Movies on B3TZ.
