The Lyons Den

Starring E! movie dude Ben Lyons

Beat Ben @ the Box Office: Who Wants Wanted?

Wanted Chuck Hodes / Universal Pictures

The Matrix changed the way action movies are made, and its influence is all over the latest graphic-novel adaptation Wanted. Unlikely star James McAvoy is an office monkey-turned-international superassassin, joined by Angelina Jolie and Common, and he's intense and convincing.

It won't be No. 1 (thanks, WALL-E), but people are excited. So look for this stylized epic to pull in big cash opening weekend, something around $37 million.

Ang gets half naked, so let's say $37.7 million.

What do you think: Am I on target here, or am I firing blanks? Put up you numbers in the comments, and we'll see who owns the box office this week, you or me.
