Pirates holds the top spot at the box office over the weekend raking in another 43 (plus) million domestically. Everyone is seeing this movie or the same idiots are going to see it again and again. Either way, I have yet to meet someone who really liked the movie. If liked the movie please contact me so I can have you sterilized.
As for my predictions of the 2 new big movies that hit theaters I was pretty much right. Good thing I didn't go out on a limb or anything (that's right, I didn't). Knocked Up nearly recouped it's production budget in the first three days, while Mr. Brooks saw the best it will get in it's 10 million dollar opening. I haven't seen how much that film cost so I can't judge profitability but I do know that it will have a hard time keeping up those numbers. I keep hearing that Kevin Costner wants to make two more of these movies. Oy, is all I have to say to that. Find me someone who isn't making a trilogy right now and then I"ll be interested.
On that note, I can only say thanks to Eli Roth who says he won't be making a Hostel III, and Judd Apatow who is attached to (as a producer and or writer) to no less than 11 movies coming out in the next few years and not one of them is a sequel. You guys are okay in my book.
Since I'm the one keeping score, I'll say I'm one and a half out of two so far. I was on for Knocked Up, but only my caveat was right (so far anyway) about Mr. Brooks. I'll be back Thursday with my crystal ball for Ocean's 13 and Hostel II.
