Hope everyone had an awesome Memorial Day weekend. I know I did! You know who else did? Disney!! Pirates of the Carribean:Dead Man's Chest keel hauled in over $142 million for the 3 day weekend eclipsing the record set by X-Men 3: The Last Stand last year. That's a lot of clams. I hear Disney is using the profits to fund their next big project Mr. Toad's Wild Ride: The Movie!! Here is a breakdown of the weekend box office.
- Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest
- Shrek the Third (Parents-stop taking your kids to see this washed out franchise!! It's tired!!)
- Spider-Man 3 (Why?)
- Bug (Surprise here. I guess there's always a spot for the scary.)
- Waitress (If you haven't seen it, go now. It just opened in more theaters and we need to support the good indie films or they will make more Shreks and Spider-Mans.)
More Dark Knight
Here's another photo from the set of The Dark Knight. Apparently, they are going to be four action scenes shot in 70mm IMAX. This will be the first time that a major studio movie will be shot at least partly in IMAX. A few movies have been converted to IMAX from a regular negative, but that makes the picture a little stretched out. It will be interesting to see the difference on a regular projector.
