Material Girls Will Only Play at 1500 Theaters

According to Box Office Mojo, Material Girls will be shown at an estimated 1500 theaters when it opens on Friday, August 18. For those of you who don't follow box office results, this number is very low. Most major movies open at 2500-3000 theaters, while the biggest blockbusters get played at 4000+ locations.

The low theater count is more bad news for Material Girls' box office expectations. Fierce competition from other movies, low theater count, lack of promotion, and Hilary's recent poor track record at the box office are all signals that lead me to believe that Material Girls won't make very much money at the box office. I hope I'm wrong.
