LaOD is 3rd behind Harry Potter and Tangled for money per screen.<br /><br />Megamind, Unstoppable and Burlesque all have at least 600 more screens than LaOD. Megamind has just under a thousand more screens than LaOD. With that many more screening is it is hard to takeover their positions on the list. <br /><br />I wonder if LaOD will gain more screens next week with less new releases and other movies going into weeks 3,4, and 5 at the box office.Special Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03019395487185601033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420911995963030061.post-34743205432207755272010-11-28T18:28:42.109-05:002010-11-28T18:28:42.109-05:00You're welcome, Destiny -

Most movies due 12/3 are in very limited release or virtually unheard of. LAOD could get a bounce against such limited competition. It makes me wonder why they picked Thanksgiving for the LAOD release date with so little competition only 1 week later.

I went and saw <i>Fair Game</i> last night, and it was a really good movie, and a devastating indictment of what went on when Valerie Plame got outed as a spy. Sean Penn and Naomi Watts are really good in it. People in the audience applauded at the end--okay, it helps that is was in a theater on the very liberal upper west side of Manhattan.<br /><br />I'm giving the plug because after the movie one of the producers came out and made an appeal to the audience. He said they don't have much money for marketing, and have had trouble getting it picked up in theaters. He urged people who liked to film to get out the word, and for people living elsewhere or with family and friends elsewhere to ask their local theaters to show the movie.destinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11394891914359285873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420911995963030061.post-69817300289584686462010-11-28T17:31:19.590-05:002010-11-28T17:31:19.590-05:00I think if they had stuck to the pharma stuff it c...I think if they had stuck to the pharma stuff it could have been a good movie.destinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11394891914359285873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420911995963030061.post-5520827561927013162010-11-28T16:17:18.058-05:002010-11-28T16:17:18.058-05:00Like I said the movie was chugging along and but i...Like I said the movie was chugging along and but it switched up when it hit Chicago.

Those questions were posted somewhere on a Jake site during the LAOD promo but I need to rewatch to catch the body language.<br /><br />Interesting spotlight. Such a sad concept "erotic loneliness" but a reality for many I'm sure.<br /><br />The latest bearding effort with Taylor is a train wreck. Not much for us to do but watch it unfold. I expect Ted will have some fun with it in coming weeks. Craig Ferguson always talks about how he loves men like Charlie Sheen, Brett Fahvre, Mel Gibson etc as they make his job, making fun of people, easy. Jake's latest bearding does the same thing for Ted. The snark will write itself. <br /><br />Been thinking about Jake's latest under performing film, LAOD. I don't think it will be the end of his career but it will impact how much money he can command for future films. He can't pull down the big bucks he wants until he can prove he can earn his keep.the real mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17057649713575215021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420911995963030061.post-3049954152463991322010-11-28T14:43:08.593-05:002010-11-28T14:43:08.593-05:00FYI for everyone with CINEMAX.

There are funny "60 Seconds with Anne Hathway" "60 Seconds with Jake Gyllenhaal" if you go to your Free Cinemax on Demand channel and hit the "movies" section. Anne and Jake interview each other about the film and their lives. (And it's more than 60 seconds~segments run about 6+ minutes). They are quite funny and amusing together, clearly very in sync with each, very comfortable. I could see these two making more films together, they've got that elusive chemistry that is so important in cinema. Note JG's reaction when Anne asks if he, when in love, "shows a person you are in love, or do you tell a person you are in love". Interesting answer, intriguing reaction facially and interesting body language wise.<br /><br />Fun catching up reading all of your insights and reactions re: LAOD today!ROMAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420911995963030061.post-66712203106346047292010-11-28T14:34:59.084-05:002010-11-28T14:34:59.084-05:00Fantastic essay today Special as usual.
