At first i was like wtf, we don't need you copying and pasting IMDB... but i think its a good idea because It'll be fun to discuss certain things amongst other movie fans.

I'm really suprised Holes did that well, and Bulletproff Monk didn't....

One time, my cousin Walter got this cat stuck in his ass. True story. He bought it at our local mall so the whole fiasco wound up on the news, it was embarrassing for my relatives and all, but the next week he did it again, different cat, same results, complete with another trip to the emergency room! So I run into him a week later in the mall and he’s buying another cat and I says to ‘em "Jesus Walt, what are you doing? You know your just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don’t you knock it off?" And he says to me "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy....

happy 700th post Petrocs...
Um..about box office numbers weekly, well, it's pretty easy to go and find them anyways, so I'm not all for it, but yet, I'd rather only come to one site and find movie news, cool people, and box office info, so I guess it's cool.
I'd post the full numbers when they come out.

And here's the top 120 for those who are interested, released today...
http://boxofficemojo.com/weekend/ch...&wknd=16&p=.htm

I like that site and http://www.the-numbers.com best for box office info.

Anger Management needs to burn in hell.. damn you Sandler for selling out, also Holes shoulda done way better as it's A) a disney flick for kids, and B) actually a fairly good movie.

surprised at malibu's piece of shit...didn't think it'd do that well, but i guess it proves if you throw enough money into advertising even a shitty movie will get some buisness

There are many movies they advertise endlessly for and they still don't make a lot. There are many others in the past couple of years: Imposter, Saving Silverman, 8 Crazy Nights, Little Nicky, Bats, Gods and Generals, Life of David Gale, Dark Blue, Boat Trip, Willard, Treasure Planet, I Spy, The Sweetest Thing, Tuck Everlasting, Hart's War, Rollerball, The Four Feathers, The Country Bears, Kung Pow! Enter the Fist, Life of Something Like It, Solaris, Half Past Dead, Juwanna Mann, Powerpuff Girls Movie, Abandon, Narc, Sorority Boys, Simone...shall I go on?


Posted by SpYdeRv1o on 04-22-2003 04:45 PM:

I agree with alot of those statements, but I haven't seen Holes yet. I thought Bulletproof Monk would do a lot better then it did.. I guess not. Oh well, I'll have to see what seems to come out on top. Maybe things will change dramatically for next weekend..

Well if you're in london (like your location says) then we live in two different continents, so there's the excuse! I saw plenty of ads for all those movies and malibu's most wanted on nbc, cbs, fox, and abc, the major 4.
