Indiana Jones may have the whip, but he's not the one cracking it this weekend. Estimates for Friday's box office sales are in and the ladies of Sex in the City have their over-priced high heels grinding unmercifully into Indiana Jones' chest. What was originally expected to be a tough race between the two top films is turning out to be a blood bath with the fashionista film holding the knife.
With approximately $26 million banked for Sex and the City compared to Kingdom of the Crystal Skull's $12 million, the ladies of New York are easily poised to be the number one movie this weekend. Even though they won't get close to Iron Man or Kingdom of the Crystal Skull's $100 million dollar first-weekend totals, they'll easily take third place for the year so far, beating out Horton Hears A Who and Prince Caspian.
The question that remains is whether or not Sex and the City can keep up the competition through the weekend. Plenty of women got out on a Friday night for ladies night out with the escapist drama, but will there be as many rushing to theaters on Saturday and Sunday? A hefty shift back to his corner is Indy's only hope to avoid a major drop in sales compared to his record breaking triumph last week.

SATC is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Went with a girlfriend on Friday and then took my mother-in-law on Saturday. I will go to see it again when I can. Thank you Sarah Jessica and the girls for a great two and 1/2 hours. The movie lived up to every expectation---and it is not about sex, it is about friendship!
