F-9/11 Perspective

By Matt Hurley for the TIB Network:

The AP has a list of the latest figures on how much various flicks have made recently:
1. "The Bourne Supremacy," Universal, $52,521,865, 3,165 locations, $16,595 average, $52,521,865, one week.

2. "I, Robot," Fox, $21,728,525, 3,494 locations, $6,219 average, $95,123,749, two weeks.
...
7. "Fahrenheit 9/11," Lions Gate, $4,759,921, 1,855 locations, $2,566 average, $103,115,645, five weeks.
...
10. "Shrek 2," DreamWorks, $2,316,663, 1,559 locations, $1,486 average, $429,441,294, 10 weeks.
A couple of observations...The Bourne Supremacy made half the take that F-9/11 did in just one week. I, Robot made nearly as much money as F-9/11 in less than half the time. Does anybody think F-9/11 will make what Shrek 2 made in double the time F-9/11 has been out?

In the galactic scheme of things, this crockumentary is no big deal. Does anybody think this pathetic film is going to "impact the election" as Mikey so wanted it to do?

I certainly don't take him or his movie seriously.
