MM can`t survive puppy love. That`s just too embarrassing for words. Plus Awards Daily Forums can`t wait for MM and that`s kiss of death.

LOLThat puppy love scene in the trailer really is ridiculous. Armie, Julia.... what were you thinking? At least we know Armie likes the pot brownies.. he has an excuse.

It's 12.35pm right now. I've been up since 7.30am.I don't like sleeping in - feels like I'm wasting the day.

Ohhh gotcha.I forget how big the difference is... I thought it was only 12 hours. It's 8:30 here in Eastern US.

No. In that weekend A Thousand Words will be the big break out

I keep forgetting that film even exists, let alone comes out in two weeks.

....Fuck.....Yay!

Great for Act of Valour but Wanderlust did terribly! I thought Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd could draw more numbers. It's still early though and it seems like the type of movie that would do more nighttime business.

[CJohn]

Universal dumped it.

[iceroll]

Reviews aren't bad, it seems like it would have potential to do well. They shouldn't have dumped it.

I agree, but they did. I plan to see it when it opens here in 3 weeks.

[The Dark Alfred]

Wow, I didn't see that coming. 2012 rocks. Records will be broken. I don't have to tell you what film I'm referring to lol Hunger Games will break out for sure as well.

How was Act of Valor financed, since its stars were active government employees? Does that mean it's a taxpayer financed movie? If so, shouldn't admission be free since we already paid for it?

Paul Rudd is a co-star!WTH is Hunger Games. 90 million, I must have missed the boat on that one.Act of Valor, I have to check this out. Made by marines, I'm thinking it's gotta be terrible. I'll check IMDB and RT in a bit!

[fishstick]

WTH is Hunger Games.

Are you sure you are from Vancouver? Under the Rock more likely.

[mdot1982]

Is $90 million a general consensus for an opening weekend ? Does the book have as much fever pitch as the Harry Potter books, or Twilight ?

[fishstick]

It does in North America.

Just got back from Act of Valor! Amazing movie. Audience loved it and standing ovation at the end with claps. The acting isn't great and cheesy and rough but the emotion story is amazing. I cried at the end (yeah I'll admit it). Definitely going to be a hit with Midwestern and Southern audiences. 30M is very doable. 100M finish could happen too.

I still think Paul Rudd can open a movie but this movie was just terribly promoted. Sure the trailer was funny but the tv spots didn't do the trailer justice.

Pretty damn impressive for Act of Valor as long as those numbers don't go down too much. Doesn't look like my kind of movie, but good job by Relativity marketing it.
