as someone who would love to be a writer I want to agree with you but I suppose the idea is that it is the star that puts bums in seats and therefore they can demand the money. Market forces and all that.

mm.. I dunno, the actors make as much of the movie as the writers etc if not even more. A movie with a great script but shit actors will suck.

The Lizzie Mcguire Movie! ;x

lizzie mcguire? who is she?

you and me both but i would rather write novels. youre right as far as what attracts an audience but it takes one hell of a mind to put something to paper and that is where it all starts.

Matrix by FAR.

I bought my tickets for the May 14th showing of Matrix two WEEKS AGO.

I saw X2 on Sat. and I was actually surprised that some of the shows sold out...I never would have thought to buy advance tickets to it even.

It was great though, I agree with many posting here that the second was even better than the first.

T3 Definitly if u ask me!:)

you already bought tickets that far in advance? talk about preparation!!! LOL

i can only imagine what the theater will be like when that comes out.

Yeah, now all you have to do is get in line for hours to get a good seat ;)

matrix of course

Schwarzenegger a big draw? Hahahaha dude you are stuck in the past!

Arnold hasn't had a hit in about 10 years. In fact he's like a curse to a movie now... Arnold in a flick is generally considered a guaranteed bomb at the box office now.

T3 will undoubtedly be the exception to the new rule that Arnold's acting career is all but over. T3 will be huge. No where near as big as Matrix or X2 though. In my opinion it doesn't even look good, actually looked borderline cheesy...

This will be the last big hoorah for Arnold, and honestly I have to say it will be sad to see because T3 truly will be it for Arnold, so when you see it on the big screen, understand that you are seeing the closing chapter of his action carreer, and probably the last hit movie he will ever have.

Just saw X2 this past weekend and thought the first one was better. In the first one Wolverine took the movie but Nightcrawler was the best character by far......there will be an X3 for sure. Anyway believe it or not Bruce Almighty brought in more money than Matrix in its first weekend! :thumbsup
