More shocking to me is that Rock Star has only made $13M. What a stinkeroo
that turned out to be
No surprise since the studio barely released it. It isn't playing at a theatre
within 100 miles of me, and we get every film released. Very odd.

I can only assume that the low screen count is because the movie is terrible.
Anytime a major studio like 20th Century Fox releases a movie in anything under
2000 screens, its a good sign that the movie is a dog and they know that even
with heavy promotion, its got no chance. Fox also did this with Monkeybone
earlier this year.
It is also notable that Glitter ranked 96th in average critical scores this
year. The number of major movie releases so far this year? 97.
(No. 97 is Freddy got Fingered, btw).
Fox released it? No wonder. In my area National Amusements is the main
theatre chain and they refuse to show just about all Fox films. Sumner
Redstone (NA owner) is having a major fight with Rupert Murdoch and won't show
Fox films. MONKEYBONE didn't open here either.

Not that *anything* is going to help the wizened piece of shrew jerky that
is Dr Laura at this point, but I do find it interesting that the holier she
gets the blonder she gets...
I commented to my husband while we were watching that Mariah is starting to
look like Kathie Lee. Same Blonde hair, overly made up, inappropriate dress
for her build and clueless to how she somes across.
After watching the trailer on Quiktime, I would say wait until the pre-teen/
teenagers get a look at it. I would percieve that would be the audience for
it. I think I would even watch it on video....maybe....and I'm kinda old.

Wow! They have DVD players in Fairbanks now?? Things have changed

Well they better hurry up and get a look at it, because Glitter is now out of
the top 10. Yes, it spent exactly one day in the top ten movies list. It's
projected total gross is now less than $10 million, which will easily make it a
contender for biggest flop of the year.

I thought it was opening nationwide. And it's the only new film this
weekend, isn't it?

GO PHILLIES!
"Last night's 'Itchy & Scratchy' was, without a doubt, the worst episode
ever. Rest assured, I was on the Internet within minutes, registering my
disgust throughout the world."
It was only one day's total, not a week's, but this is still worthy of
applause.
