Very nice opening for "The Incredible Hulk" considering how widely hated Ang Lee's 2003 film was. Expect decent word-of-mouth as well and a finish around $150 million.

Also, a nice recovery for M. Night Shyamalan with "The Happening" after the debacle that was 2006's "Lady in the Water." Sure, the legs likely won't be great but the opening is enough to ensure that the film makes at least 60 million worst case scenario.

Next week brings two comedies in "Get Smart" and "The Love Guru."
