Since my Miami Vice Opening weekend box office was not that far off, I thought I would give another shot at this weekends movie releases, which presents more of a challenge than usual.
Thrown into the mix is the campy thriller of Snakes On A Plane (SoaP). This movie has been so hyped by an internet fan base, that many of the decisions made in the movie were based on fan message boards, and by the main actor, Samuel L. Jackson. Who else could add this line and make sure it got into the final cut..."I've had it with these mother*$!*! snakes on this mother*$!*! plane!" The movie started out with the title of SoaP and then was changed to Pacific Air 121. The title was quickly changed back to SaoP when Jackson said he wouldn't do it if it was called Pacific air 121.
Along with SoaP, The Duff sisters are in a some crappy movie called Material Girls. Hilary and Haylie Duff play heiress sisters whose family cosmetics company folds after a scandal and leaves them penniless. Boo hoo. Anyway...
Then there is the movie Accepted with actor Justin Long, who plays a guy rejected from every college he applied to, so he and his friends start their own fake university. He is one of those actors who you recognize but can never quite place your finger on what movies he has been in. Allow me to refresh your memory...Dodgeball, Jeepers Creepers (both of them), Waiting.
This weekends Box Office predictions mix the new and the old...
1. Snakes on a Plane, $32 million
2. Material Girls, $22 million
(Teenage girls will go see this movie since Laguna Beach started a new season this week and MTV can't run 5 hours of it back to back yet and because The Real World Key West sucks)
3.Talladega Nights, $15 million
(This is the 3rd weekend the movie is out, but I read an article that Wal-Mart sales are down by their largest percentage ever, and I think it's because rednecks are going to see this movie instead.)
Feel free to post your predictions in the comments section!
Happy movie going to all!
