It will finish well ahead of Fey's 2008 star vehicle, Baby Mama, and if the estimates hold, it will have sold about the same amount of first-weekend tickets as Carell's first hit, The 40-Year-Old Virgin. The movie benefited from one of those titles that virtually demands that a couple see it, as when Valentine's Day was released on Valentine's Day weekend. And though Date Night gleaned only a modest...
