I bought Big Momma's House. It came with a free ticket. But the ads looked so bad I may not even use it. I haven't seen that many promos for it, but I guess there are lots of Big Momma fans out there.
I did like the first one, but this one looks like direct-to-video.

I was wrong. So wrong. I think I'm going to be sad.
But holy fucking shit! Underworld looks like a 65% drop, and I thought it was better than the original (but that's not saying much coming from me).

A lot of people aren't the most discerning moviegoers. My roomie, for example. Trailer comes on TV: "Heh, I want to see that." After I tell him that it looks horrible, he says, "I know, but I laughed at the first one, and I love Martin Lawrence."
What can you do?

Well, it's hard to say. I don't imagine that the 70% drop will hold for the hold weekend. But Underworld 2 suffers more heavily from sequelitis than of course the original does. It's the bane of genre and sequels really. In the end, it's going to be a solid run for the film with 50-60 million in the bank.

Although I'm also getting sick of 'how great of a movie BB is'. Mediocre at best.
But hey, that's another discussion!
