Been Lazy Here’s Some Mighty Boosh

Michael Jackson’s Box Office Report

The King of Pop returned from the dead on Halloween Weekend to take the top spot at the box office. Queue up Thriller or what have you because he’s going to be dug up many more times I assume. The film, This is It is being heralded by most critics despite just being a piece to collect on the cash cow that was Michael Jackson. If it wins any awards this year I’m going to dropkick a TV and I will not disappoint either. Below are the top 10 for the weekend with a little bit of notes to go along.

1. This is It – $21.3M ($32.509M)
2. Paranormal Activity – $16.54M ($84.78M)
3. Law Abiding Citizen – $7.303M ($51.385M)
4. Couples Retreat – $6.097M ($86.663M)
5. Saw 6 – $5.56M ($22.824M)
6. Where the Wild Things Are – $5.081M ($61.8M)
7. The Stepfather – $3.4M ($24.748M)
8. Astro Boy – $3.035M ($10.891M)
9. Amelia – $3M ($8.306M)
10. Cirque du Freak: Vampire’s Assistant – $2.809M ($10.521M)

Notes
- Obviously if you haven’t heard of Paranormal Activity yet you will now. It has become the most profitable of all the times beating out The Blair With Project. And guess what, it had the same marketing strategy essentially. Low budget, shock value and word of mouth. People say it’s shit, people say it’s awesome. Sounds exactly the same as Blair Witch. Oh well. Moving on.
- In a surprising event, Where the Wild Things Are is falling off the radar while Law Abiding Citizen is riding off the coattails of Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx. WTWTA has dropped 63.8% this week despite being a nerd/indie wet dream. It’s funny to think a remake of The Stepfather might be more profitable than it.
- Speaking of wet dreams, the wet dream for douchebags Boondock Saints 2 opened up this week on 68 screens. It made about $462k. Eh, it’d be better to watch an Arnie movie. At least then you’d get funny puns and jokes.
- Gentlemen Broncos opened up on 2 screens making $10k total. This comes from the guy who made Napoleon Dynamite and it looks interesting as it has Sam Rockwell and one half of Flight of the Conchords. I’ll wait for Netflix.
- For 2009 we have 21 $100M+ movies whereas in 2008 at this point we had 19. But 2008 had more $200M+ with 6 to 5. New Moon should fix that I would suspect.

Next Week
- A four film race is set as we have The Box from Richard Kelly, A Christmas Carol IN LIVE CAPTURE AND 3D, The Fourth Kind which has to be based on a true story for realz dog and Men Who Stare at Goats which just looks amazing.

Tyson – Movie Review

Tyson is the documentary of sorts that chronicles the life of boxing living legend Mike Tyson. It (with pun intended) pulls no punches in its depiction of Iron Mike. From the highs to the lows it covers it all and it does so with great effect. Below I shall explain my reasonings behind this.

You Can Catch Me on Uncharted 2

So yeah you can attribute any of the upcoming and recurring absences to Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. It’s seriously the best game I’ve played since Little Big Planet. The multiplayer is as addictive, the single player campaign is fantastic.

But the real reason I’m absent is actually the multiplayer. It’s just so addicting. No matter how many times I get killed through walls and all of it’s negative aspects, I just can’t get enough.

Terminator 2 Rap

So first we had the Predator rap by DJ Mayhem and DJ Mouthmaster Murf, then they brought along the Robocop rap and now they are back with another Arnie movie…Terminator 2. The beat for this is sick and the rhymes are as well. Watch and enjoy.

I’m Back

Hello, I have decided to venture back here to wordpress as my venture to make internet monies failed on every level. Anywho I plan on using this for what I did before. Movie reviews, stories and poetry and the added bonus box office report.

Also, I just might post pictures and such of hilarious items. Oh so highlarious.

I’m Lazy

It’s true. If you haven’t noticed (aka the noone that regularly visits this site) that my update about the film premiere did not premiere this weekend. I’m lazy. I can’t help it. Maybe if I was actually making money off of this. Somehow I think I am going to turn this into an actual money making blog. We will see. Soon I will do research but for now…for now…plugging of other blogs I read.

Quick Updation

Alright quick updation here. I should have a report of my adventure to watch the first film I ever worked on (as a non-paid intern but still), Fuel. It is a documentary on biodiesel and what we can do to quicken its arrival. I’ll throw up the link to the official site here, Fuel’s Official Website.

Anyways, expect the update either Saturday Night or Sunday.

P.S. I’m putting up a poll just because I can now.

Saw V Mashup Contest

So on the youtube they have a contest where you mashup and make a trailer for the new fifth installment of the Saw movie. If you win you get a trip to LA and tickets to Lions Gate Horror Film Premiere. I think that’s pretty awesome so I made me two. Just check and enjoy them and if you want to comment on how bad or good they are then feel free.
