Moviegoers showed some love for the art of boss-hating as New Line's 'Horrible Bosses 2' launched with a solid $1 million in Tuesday night showings at the U.S. box office. The R-rated comedy sequel - the first challenger to Liongate's "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" took in nearly triple the opening night number for "Horrible Bosses", which opened with $365,000 in July of 2011. Predictions have projected that "Horrible Bosses 2" will take in about $35 million for the Wednesday-Sunday Thanksgiving holiday period. The original opened with $28.3 million on its way to $117 million in the U.S. and $209.6 million worldwide. The sequel brings back actor/comedians Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, and Jason Sudeikis following the trio as they seek revenge on an evil investor, played by actor Christoph Waltz. It debuts in 3,321 theater locations on Wednesday and expands to 3,375 on Friday.
