  2. If Taker is heard, he should drop the title to Batista at Judgement Day (making them 1-1-1) and then rehab the injury and come back for the big blowoff at...Summerslam maybe?
  3. I don't know if Mean Girls counts, so it was a critical and commercial hit. I saw it 4 times in theatres. Get Over It, starring Ben Foster and Kirsten Dusnt, is one of my favourite movies of all time, yet not many people have seen it. I love that movie.
  4. Even though the Redbirds do well, you couldn't put a team in Memphis. As Czech said, it's total Cardinal country. It's a shame they can't just contract the Fish. Maybe kill the D-Rays too? And al is right. If the Fish want a stadium so bad, why can't they just pay for it themselves?
  5. I was a Knicks fan until they traded Ewing.
  6. Awww, I liked the Majors arena. It was cute.
  7. Cena's faced Edge in a steel cage match, Edge on RAW in Dec, Umaga twice, HBK at WM, the Backlash 4-way... anything else?
  8. Let's not discuss that game, guys. I'm still in therapy
  9. We get this every week. EVERY movie is marketed and advertised, you may not be watching the right programs that the movie appeals to.
  10. Because you're wrong. Look at all the horror remakes that made 30 mil +. Why can't Halloween?
  11. I DVRed the game so what area were you sitting in? I might have to go through and see if there's a bob barron sighting. I was sitting behind Boston's dugout- Section 12 Box 240 Row H
  12. It's always fun going to Yankee Stadium and seeing the Yanks getting killed 11-4
  13. Holy shit, I called Cowan scoring the GWG. Yay!
  14. It's facing no competition and has the Halloween name. It will do a huge opening weekend
  15. Wow. That show sounds awful. They couldn't shell out some cash for some TNA guys?
  16. Dwight putting the plant in front of Phyllis had me dying
  17. Eternal Sunshine is one of my favourite movies ever. Couldn't get into Science of Sleep
  18. I met Orton in 2003 and the guy was really nice- he stopped for everyone.
  19. Don't forget Marc Crawford
  20. Did Trevor Linden rape King's mom? But wow, Canucks got their ass kicked last night. It's just one game and they came out flat, so I'm not too worried yet. They really need to start learning how to score goals or this will get ugly
  21. August also has El Cantante which could make some money with Hispanic audiences. And while Sicko won't make F9/11 money, I see it doing 50-60 mil. There's alsoa movie called The Comebacks starring Todd Packer and Carl Weathers. That's going to rule.
  22. Smash Hits (Over $200 million) Shrek 3 made 441 million three years ago, despite being a pretty crappy movie and greatly inferior to the original. Assuming Shrek the Third isn't a complete crapfest, it should still make quite a bit of money. But I see it topping out about 380-400. Week 2 competition from Pirates will severely cut into its business. So I'll say: 385 Spider-Man made 403 mil, while Spider-Man 2 made 373 mil. I think Spider-Man 3 will come in between the two movies. A lot of people of talking like this will be the last one, so they will definetly want to see it in theatres. Spider-Man is being released first, and has no competition it's second week so it should be able to rack up enough business to sustain itself when Shrek and Pirates come to town. I see this one making about 380-400. I think Pirates was right place right time last summer, and I don't think it will match Pirates 2 business. I really think they should've pushed Pirates 3 back a bit and just let Shrek and Spider-Man rule the month. I think this will top out at 350. Order of Phoenix will be more in line with Azkaban, which made 260 million in 04. They were smart in pushing it back until July 13th to avoid the May rush, unlike in 04 when it got its ass kicked by Shrek. I don't think Transformers will be too much competiton, but releasing it in the summer instead of the winter will cut into the gross. I'd say about 265. The last Rush Hour made 226 million, but that was 6 years ago. Does anyone even remember Chris Tucker? They were smart to push it to the end of the summer, but I don't think they'll get 200 million. 150 mil maybe. I could also see this one being the flop of the summer. This is another movie I'm thinking could bomb. It will do huge on fourth of July, but will be facing week 2 of Ratatouille and then in Transformers week 2- it will have Harry Potter. And everyone's sick of Michael Bay. I don't think this is the 6th biggest film of the summer. Big Hits ($100 - $199 million) I think Bourne will top 200 and Transformers and Rush Hour 2. Bourne Supremacy made 176 and was a critical hit and a big hit with audiences and played well on video. In terms of action movies, it will have been a month since Transformers. I see Bourne making 220. Hmmmmm. I think this will have a big opening weekend, and then word of mouth will depend whether this stays alive. But doing a Simpsons Movie now? Bad idea. I don't see this making a huge amount of money. And as an aside mole, 100-199 is a huge gap. You need to shorten it. This one is interesting to handicap. The last Die Hard made 100 million. But Bruce Willis' star has totally faded. His last three star vehicles bombed and except for Sin City- his movies haven't done too well. But this is Bruce Willis in his comfort zone, and I think Die Hard should make about 100-120 million. Having the fourth of July as week 2 will help. Ocean's 11 made 180, Ocean's 12 made 120. Did anyone really want to see another Ocean's movie? They picked a perfect release for it though, so it should have a good opening weekend. I see this making about 110-120. Ratatouille Less then 200? Less then Ocean's 13? Come on Mole. It's a Pixar movie! Since 1998, every Pixar movie has made at least 244 million. And their last movie was a dumb flick about Cars. It will have a huge week + 4th of July before the Potter flick comes in. Plus given that Order might have a PG-13, it's really the only family flick for the next month. 270 million for Rat I think. Evan Almighty I could see this getting lost in the shuffle. Has to face week 2 of Fantastic Four and then in its second week, it has Ratatouille, another family film. Plus they went ridiciously overbudget, which is never a good sign. I could see this being another summer disappointment. Fantastic Four 2 Fantastic Four made 154 million. I think F42 will do about the same. I Now Pronouce You Chuck & Larry 150 million. Nancy Drew No way this makes 100-199 million. It's Nancy fucking Drew. Being the only movie for girls will help, but I don't think it makes that much. Sleepers? Knocked Up Seth Rogan is no Steve Carrel. And it has second week of Pirates. This will do pretty well, but it needs more starpower to go over the top. Hairspray I don't think this will bomb like Rent and Producers, but I don't see a Chicago or Dreamgirls. Somewhere in the middle. 28 Weeks Later Good opening weekend, and then lost in the shuffle. Hostel Part II Should be a nice alternative in the middle of summer. The Invasion Tank. Superbad It's George Michael and the fat kid from Accepted. It will be awesome, but no one will see this. Hot Rod This should do alright. A Mighty Heart This seems more like a movie to release in the fall, not summer. I don't see this one doing very well. You forgot Surf's Up and Halloween. I also would so see Underdog, but that's just me.
  23. Her face totally ruins the picture Mole
  24. robrabies seemed like an argumenrative prick, but hey- so is the guy who mods the folder! But I'm totally serious on razateca. Dude is AWFUL, and if sucking is against the rules at TSM- he should go
