You know, I don't believe Million Dollar Baby dropped right out of the top 10. And where's Constantine? Both those were in the top 6 in Friday's #s. Where are those #s from?

I think when Vin Diesel whose movie is rating at 20 % fresh bests John Travolta whose movie is only slightly higher at 29 by close to $8 million domestically, i would consider that a schlacking, it's Vin Diesel for god sakes!

sorry to say, but "The Pacifier" was a great family flick, the kids in my theater loved it, and so did many of the parents...it may not have been cinematic masterpiece, but it wasnt trying to be...it was just a fun family film.

I am not surprised that a family comedy beat a sequel from a ten year old film. I thought Be Cool just seemed a little too much like The Whole Ten Yards or Analyze That (a sequel no one really wanted).

I think, while not a mainstay, Diesel has proven he has an audience. And family films are up there with PG-13 horror in audience popularity right now.
No "schlacking" occured.

I find it interesting that the #1 movie in America has a title that also pretty much describes its function as a movie. Like it or not, crappy reviews don't mean much when you have a flick that can keep loud kids occupied for a couple of hours so Mom and Dad don't have to worry about entertaining them. In short, it's pacification!
