Heroes: The New Heroes will help the franchise to be off to a strong start at the box office this coming weekend. The pic is expected to gross $150+ million in its opening weekend, plus its 3-day run during Thanksgiving. THat would not only be the best opening for a Thanksgiving release yet, but also the biggest for a November opening.

The previous record was held by ''Scooby-Doo! The 2nd Movie, which opened a few weeks ago to a stunning $145 million, followed by The Twilight Saga: New Moon at $142.7 million in 2009, and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2'' at $141 million last week.

Critics complains that the franchise are being mixed with Harry Potter and Twilight because of their references are similar. It's full of love triangle and full of big adventures that characters are going to.

With $150+ million, that would land right on par of The Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises and The Hunger Games. Tickets are very strong and midnight screenings will play very wide.

The film opens in 3,990 midnight theaters tonight, while it plays in 4,215 theaters nationwide. It is also playing in about 505 IMAX screens worldwide.
