    Box office for May 29-31

    Well the numbers this weekend would have you saying, WTF?

    http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/boxoffice/

    See what I mean. I think it would have done a lot better on this date, October 29, 2009.

    Another thing, how is it that movies like "The Unborn" and " A haunting in Connecticut" make millions and this very precious film fails. *sigh*

    Well, better luck next time Sam.

    Because of marketing AND because most people are moronic sheep who like slow-minded horror flicks like The Unborn and Haunting.

    Drag Me to Hell did decent at the box office and I'm sure will eventually make most of its money through DVD and blu-ray sales.

    I'm more surprised about how poorly T4 is doing now. Although I haven't seen the film, I figured the franchise still had enough pull to keep bringing in top numbers for the next couple weeks. Guess not

    Yeah, T4 has had a very surprising turn out. I caught it and really liked it. And even if the Terminator series lost its pull I would have expected Christian Bale's leading role to pull in numbers.... but he honestly lacked in this flick. He was def. upstaged by the guy who played Marcus.

    Yeah T4 is doing horrible. I heard a lot of awful things about bails performance.

    Fright, come to think about it, I don't think a summer horror movies, besides "The Omen" and "Halloween", has ever been a blockbuster hit.

    FD movies always did well, and if I remember correctly they were all summer releases.

    Those PG-13 ratings turned off alot of viewers.

    Pretty sad, because the reason they only slapped a PG-13 rating was to gain more viewers rather than lose'em

    No Arnold plus a PG-13 rating = stupid beyond belief.

    Well, you all do have a point, considering the fact that people who have seen PG-13 horror films say that they suck.

    The only movie that has been worth my damn time at the theatre is MBV3D.
