Exploring Stuff That Makes Life Great
We’ve got a preview for NBC’s upcoming Bionic Woman show. Airing this Fall, NBC is obviously trying to bank in on Heroes success and try their luck at another super human TV show. I’m liking it so far, but it seems like a high bugdet Smallville or Birds of Prey. With that in mind I don’t really know how long or how entertaining the series will be over the long run.
Judge for yourself by watching the preview in The Pipeline under TV Shows.
I’m looking at this weekend’s box office reports and it’s almost sad to think that the big 3: Spiderman 3, Shrek 3, and Pirates 3 are slowly being shoved out of the theaters making room for the next big wave of movies. There’s something about this whole process that makes me sad. Maybe it’s that these box office movies signify the summer and with them leaving it’s almost as if summer is dieing with it as well. I need my box office movies! Don’t let summer die!
Here’s the chart for the weekend (if only I could make a percent of this return):
1. “Ocean’s Thirteen,” $37.1 million.
2. “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End,” $21.3 million.
3. “Knocked Up,” $20 million.
4. “Surf’s Up,” $18 million.
5. “Shrek the Third,” $15.75 million.
6. “Hostel: Part II,” $8.75 million.
7. “Mr. Brooks,” $5 million.
8. “Spider-Man 3,” $4.4 million.
9. “Waitress,” $1.65 million.
10. “Disturbia,” $550,000.
