Wow. Mike Myers supposedly has an uncontrollable ego (check out the EW article) and this beating can't help. A distant second for the "comedy event of the summer." Not likely. It will be curious if this kills more Austin Powers or makes him go back to the well.
(my predictions)
1. ‘Get Smart’ - $38.1 million 2. ‘The Love Guru’ - $23.5 million 3. ‘The Incredible Hulk’ - $22.0 million 4. ‘Kung Fu Panda’ - $21.5 million 5. ‘The Happening’ - $11.0 million
