Here is this week's box office report courtesy of Boxofficemojo.com. 
I was almost right.
I was right on the money with the new releases but I need to rethink my strategy when it comes to the movies already out.
4 out of 10 isn’t so bad. Plus I wasn’t that off.
Seems as though the studios are hoarding all their good movies until Oscar season in November.
This is the second week that nothing but filler as been released. The only new movie that I saw this weekend was The Last Kiss and I will review that later today. I think it deserves its own post.
I stayed as far away from the Gridiron Gang but it seems $15 million worth of people didn’t. The Black Dahlia managed to take the second spot even with nothing but bad reviews. Everyone’s Hero took the bronze, Like I said these animated movies are not the cash cows they used to be. Everyone’s Hero only took in $6 million and probably had a budget closer to the $50 million dollar range. That movie just looked bad. It could conceivably make its money back with Dvd sales and international releases but I am pretty sure it will be considered a failure.
The only thing that made me happy about this weeks top 10 is watching Little Miss Sunshine struggling to stay in the top 10. I am so glad that movie is close to breaking the $50million mark. It really is one of the best movies of this year. Go out and watch it now. Believe the hype.
Still haven’t seen Hollywoodland. I think it was just demoted to “waiting until the dvd come out” Status. |
