Thread: I hope Warner already cashed Sony's check

Speed Racer which looked like crap in the previews to me BOMBED this weekend. (Heaven knows CNN ain't gonna print it like this.)

The first bomb of the "summer" box office season!
Speed Racer barely took in $20 million at the U.S. Box Office this past weekend.
The film reportedly took in $20.2 million, but rival studios think Warner Bros.
is lying


about that number, so they can claim a second place finish.
Iron Man came in first for a second weekend in a row, taking in $50.5 mill.
And, the Ashton Kutcher / Cameron Diaz flick, What Happens In Vegas came in third (or possibly second) with $19.7 million.
We hope WB isn't lying about Speed's take. That would be soooo shady!

Not really a warzone topic. There is a section for movie reviews. I have no intention of ever seeing this film. I loved the cartoon back in the day. No interest in an unrealistic cg world.

That said, official box office totals come out Monday afternoon.

Yes, it is. It's a snipe at Warner for taking Sony's $400 mill and refusing Toshiba's $250 mill several months earlier. (400>250!)

I have no interest in watching this movie anyway. I think thats a common theme.

You can tell it is going to be a bad movie when you go to yahoo movies and cannot find critic reviews or user reviews easily. They must pay to have a special movie promotion page instead of the usual one that has the ratings up top on opening day. They appear a couple days later (they are up now for speed racer critics C and users B)

Hugh, where is that in the link you posted?

I chose not to watch it at the movies, but I WILL buy it on BR. You guys turn everything you can into a anti BR issue, get over it. Has everyone forgotten movies should be fun, or are we too serious about arguing every topic?
