That reminds me, sorry about my friend calling you a "black nicca" last night. He was pretty fucked up too.

Unless you don't care, that is.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on March 11, 2007, 03:41:15 PM: Updated with weekend estimates. There are two odd things about these numbers. One, 300 had a budget of just $65 million, which means Warner Bros. executives should be tap dancing for joy right about now. Two, there were suspicious inconsistencies, where family movies leapfrogged on the charts. This is probably the first time I've seen other movies directly benefiting from another's R-rating.
