Box Office Jam

When a guy pulls up in a car like this at the drive-thru, don't mess up his order.

Box Office Jam

It was kind of a slow week for movies and will probably continue to be for the next few weeks.

1. Tropic Thunder $65.8M: The movie is never going to be a huge hit, because it’s too inside and only people that like movies will get all the jokes. But, it is still a hit.

2. The House Bunny $14.5M: This might have something to do with Anna Faris’ charm to both the male and female groups. I like her and I think she’s a good actress. Plus, seeing her in a skimpy outfit isn’t bad either.

3. Death Race $12.6M: Jason Statham drives around in a fast car and kills people. Sounds like every other film he’s done. Think of this as Crank mixed with The Transporter and The Italian Job.

4. The Dark Knight $489M: Should reach the 500 mark in the states in a few weeks.

5. Star Wars: The Clone Wars $25M: I’m not going to see this in theaters, especially when the last three movies have had better ratings and reviews than this one. Because they didn’t spend any money on acting or animation, this has turned a profit.
