Box Office and Doomsday

Seems we have the first big movie of the year, with Horton hears a who scoring in this weekends box office with an estimated $45.1 million. The biggest opening of a slow year so far. This movie has plenty to bring audiences in.

1. The Dr. Suess name

2. Jim Carrey and Steve Carell

3. Jo Jo the emo who, which DA has made a superstar.



No movie even came close this weekend, especially the movie that I ended up seeing, which was Doomsday placed 7th this week lol.




What more can I say about Doomsday that hasn't been said just by looking at the previews. It was 28 days later, in that a disease was rampant in Britain and a whole section was quarantine and left for dead. It was Mad Max in that inside this area it turned into a post apocalyptic future where punk rockers ruled, and Underworld because there was a British female lead with extraordinary fighting prowess and skin tight clothes.

Don't get me wrong I had a great time watching this cheese fest of an action movie, from the exploding cars for no reason the awesome video game type environment and the ludicrous action sequences, but it isn't getting any more then that. Also this chick was awesome looking too bad she died early on.

Misread this as "Box Office Doomsday" , followed by the picture of Jo Jo the emo who.

>_<

If I need to fill my irrational explosion quota some month, I will check out Doomsday.

And yeah, the characters I like always get killed off first.
