I might take Twisted at Itops. If I don't win with my Passion Of Christ bet... I done with BO... and I'm sticking with what I know... BOXING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are lines for Passion of Christ still up? I looked earlier and could not find it.

 

[Oren1]

They're down.

Club Dread is #2 on the moviefone chart!

 

[Big-KO]

USD 7 million or more +240

 

[Oren1]

yeah maybe a stupid bet as personally I don't think this movie should do that well, but, it is similar to Scary Movie 3 which also did well on the moviefone chart so I took over 7 million +240 for 1 unit. Supertroopers did a little over 6 million so over 7 really isn't a whole lot to ask, except for the fact that the movie looks weak.

And Super Troopers didn't have Bill Paxton!

ack! it's only playing in 1800 theaters

It's getting pretty good reviews... plus decent buzz. I think you have a good chance.

 

[Oren1]

or not.

"2:45 showing. Four people in the theater. Three laughs in the film.

Broken Lizard couldn't decide between making a comedy with no laughs or a slasher flick with no scares, so they made both. This was a terrible disappointment.

It started halfway between showings for PASON, so I can't give any kind of crowd report for that.

Do you think Passion will go over 50 million? It is easily going over 41 million, IMO. 50 will be close call. maybe.

 

[Oren1]

not sure, but yeah think it has a very good shot at topping 50, especially if it has a strong Sunday, which is very likely.

 

[Gillian]

One thing about this Sunday night... not to many movie fans will be going to the shows with the OSCARS playing on TV.

 

[Oren1]

Well forget about 50, it could quite possibly top 60 million now.
