Shia LaBeouf has officially secured a spot in Indiana Jones IV this weekend by kicking Blades of Glory out of the #1 spot. Disturbia grossed a cool $23 mil, while Blades came in #2 with $14 mil. Meet the Robinsons is still holding strong in the top 5 with $12 mil at #3, and Are We Done Yet?, another kid flick, dropped to #5 with $9 mil. The Halle Berry-Bruce Willis thriller, Perfect Stranger, nabbed the #4 spot with $11.5 mil. Not such a great box office gross for one of the sexiest women in Hollywood.
Understandably, due to only a 7-theater release, indie Year of the Dog only made $112,000. But Lonely Hearts faired far worse. Granted, it was only released in 23 theaters, but $92,000 in comparison to Year of the Dog's proceeds, is pathetic. Maybe Salma Hayek's recent scheme to get a baby minus the soulmate has hurt her appeal. Or maybe Jared Leto's antics has the power to destroy a film's credibility. I think the greatest surprise was actually Redline's debut with $4 mil in the 11th spot. Who the hell watched that crapfest? I'm telling you the youth of today are wasting their brain cells. Now, if you'll excuse me I have to go wax my cane.
I guess that's it for Grindhouse.
ReplyDeleteGrindhouse came in at #10 with $4 mil. But after watching Rose McGowan be overly opinionated on The View last thursday as a guest host I think I might know why. She has to stop killing this film.
