I think its gonna bomb to,I asked my freinds to go see it with me and they laughed at me and they will see anything,I think just because Affleck is in it will be the main reason it bombs.

I had mixed reviews of it, didnt like how they could defy gravity with jumping, but I knwo they did it in the comics so, if you could take that as a fun movie, it was good. Duncan and Garner I thought were awsome in it. Afflec did a good job. Collin Ferrel I thought was Bad-Ass in the movie. And of Coarse, anything with Joey Pants in it is good in my book!

Obviously you didn't read into my sarcasm. Clearly it won't come close to Spiderman in terms of box office revenue, but it should do well enough to warrant a sequel.

Went Friday night in the middle of a snow fall and the rodes were pretty shitty, but the show was still sold out....

So I went back Saturday for the first show and the theater was just about full.

I saw it at a downtown theater and it was about three quarters full. It was a small theater so I guess out of about 200 or so seats maybe about 150 were full.

Why was it playing at a small downtown art theater you might ask? A couple of years ago the own of the York Square Theater here in New Haven, CT wanted to get a reel of Amistad. Senor Spielbergo vehemently refused saying he didn't want that film to play in the inner city. So the theater owner filed a law suit against three distributors and won. This little theater gets about 1 first run film a year now.

Went to an opening night showing and the theater was maybe a third full.

On the other hand, I haven't seen a theater full since Two Towers. And even that was the first in quite a while.
