Grimm...and
grimmer.
Another
grim week at the U.S. Box Office with
the supposed big movie of the week The
Brothers Grimm slumping in at 2 with a
miserly $15 million, sure it had sat on
the shelf for ages and Miramax did just
dump it to clear the decks before they
jump ships, but come on, it's a Gilliam
movie! Still that's a whole lot better
than the crappy The Cave managed with
a terrible $6.2 million. Cole Hauser straight
to video beckons for any of your future
movies methinks. Still The 40 Year Old
Virgin manages to hold the number 1 spot
for the 2nd week so it's not all bad,
but does it have the legs to make the
box office that it's nearest comparison
Wedding Crashers did? If it has it's got
a LONG way to go to reach that movies
$188 million haul.
This'll
be the last commentary for two weeks as
I'm off on my holidays, here's hoping
the box office slump is arrested by the
time I come back, otherwise I'll see you
in 14!

You
finally got sick of Chocolate!
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has
finally been kicked off the top of the
UK Box Office, by Bo and Luke Duke. Na
more like Jessica Simpson's Daisy Dukes!
Not a particularly huge take for it though
with only £1.7 million, imagine
what that would have been if the film
was better than the turd it is?
Elsewhere The Cave sneaks in at 5 with
only $0.56 million, half of what its nearest
comparison The Descent made in its 1st
week of release, shows that quality always
wins out.
The only other new entry for those that
noticed was The Adventures of Shark Boy
& lav Girl that limped in at 8 with
$0.4 million and will probably disappear
entirely next week.
And speaking of that see you in 14 days
as I'm off on my holidays!
