Mike Myers is more famous than he is bankable. Sure, Shrek movies make cash, and the second and third Austin Powers movies performed, but that's about it. Cat in the Hat barely took in $100 million—Horton Hears a Who did twice that—and so many others bombed. The first Austin Powers didn't even crack $10 million opening weekend.
So look for The Love Guru, opening with little or no buzz, to come in behind Steve Carell's Get Smart, at around $24.8 million.
Am I nuts? Can Justin Timberlake bring the kids to another ridiculous Myers incarnation? Put your numbers up in the comments, and we'll see who's the real box office guru.
