Cost $33M and a film has to triple that to really make any real money although the cable and DVD release can bring nearly any film out of the red and into the black. Which leads one to believe some movies should just be DVD releases and forget the theaters.
Thanks, Light. You're the man when it comes to film info.
Very interesting. I haven't seen Little Miss Sunshine.
I've heard that it was really funny. "Little Miss Sunshine" that is.
I think there's a lesson learned in the "World Trade Center" flop and personally, I'm kinda proud of us as a society, that we didn't scurry to the theatre to see it. That doesn't happen very often at all.
Saw The OH in Ohio. Sweet and cute.
I think you meant to post that on one of the new film threads?
Lightwizard -- Wow! I never posted that on this thread at all! This is the second time that this has happened to me. I find Mozilla Firefox a bit incompatible with a2k and I think Mozilla is to blame.
Always had problems with all of Mozilla's applications. They are not on my PC. You should be able to click on Explorer and bypass Firefox.
Lightwizard -- Sometimes I use IE but I have to use the library's computers and they take a great deal of strain from overwork. IE here exhibits mystery dialogue boxes -- one of the strangest reads, "Object Expected" -- that you can click away 10 or more times without results. So, I switch back and forth between servers.
That's likely a conflicting browser problem and I guess one can't expect expert administrators in any library.
