Yeah, but will they even add up to a million dollars?
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I don't think so, but every little bit helps.

I'm figuring more like a quarter mil if the last total number of screenings I heard was accurate. But, hopefully thousands of those early attenders will be dragging friends to see it and buying tickets to multiple showings themselves.

Art Crawl!!!
Is A History of Violence opening limited or wide on Friday? (I mean, did it open limited this weekend?)
That's definitely a movie that I want to see. (But, of course, I shall be at Serenity this weekend.)

You know, I'm making the assumption that where there is a pre-screening on Thursday (or whichever day it is), there will also be a regular run. That's a logical assumption, right? The theater where I'm planning to see it does have a pre-screening but doesn't have its Friday schedule up yet, and I've got a whole meet up and do dinner thing going on with a friend there. Hope the movie is actually there, too. Huh.
I mean, you wouldn't pre-screen a movie on Thursday that you weren't going to show on Friday, right?

I don't think so. I mean, you have the film already. Why not make some money off it?

Yeah, I think I'm fine. It's just, sometimes my assumptions, which are so clearly righ to me are... not so much. But I think I'm good with this one.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
From what someone just posted over at Oscarwatch, it looks like HoV is going to be on about 1200 screens. Into the Blue (Jessica Alba in a bikini) is on 2700, and Serenity is going to be on 2100. The Greatest Game Ever Played (the Holes guy plays golf) is on 1000, and Oliver Twist is on 800. I don't know about films already out, yet (BOM usually puts out the final theater count list on Wednesday or Thursday).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
It's probably good for Serenity that I really don't have any clear idea about any of those others -- which is to say, they haven't been promoted ad naseum. Right?
Is there anything huge opening in the next few weeks?
Man, I still don't know where I'm going to be when I see it. I'll be in Houston on Wednesday, maybe Amarillo on Thursday. Hopefully home by Friday, but I dunno if I'm going to be able to head straight to the theater.
