    Regarding Mariah Carey's claims about 9/11 ruining this movie.

     

    This film was released on September 21st, 2001. (week 38)

     

    Some data via boxofficemojo.com

    Sep. 28–Oct. 4 $94,625,569 +24.5%

    Sep. 21–27 $76,015,096 -9.1%

    Sep. 14–20 $83,634,364 -9.5%

    Sep. 7–13 $92,421,954 -31.4%

     

     

    So the actual week of September 11th there was a huge drop in receipts versus the week before (as you would expect). In the weeks following, revenue continued to decrease. I think this can likely be chalked up to the fact that there weren't any great movies released on these weekends (Hardball, The Glass House,Glitter,Megiddo: The Omega Code II).

     

    The next week brought some legitimate draws

    Don't Say a Word $22,167,881

    Zoolander $18,820,552

    Hearts in Atlantis $11,418,341

     

    Not that anyone actually bought into the idea that the failure was 9/11 based, but he data debunks it

    Remember in the "Cobra" episode (or maybe it was in the forum) where they discussed how Stallone tried to get it changed to where he'd be credited as the new author of the book that it was based on that he DID NOT write? Craziness.

     

    Yeah, I had sort of forgot about that conversation (pretty sure it was on the actual episode), but the combination of those two things is probably what triggered my memory. Such a scumbag move.

    Great show. I never miss it . However the numbers that June recited sound...specious at best. I believe that the total cost of all the movies is correct-- in the lower billions, but not trillions. And yes, I'm sure the writer of the post got it right. Howaever, the numbers that June recited sound...specious at best. And yes, I'm sure the writer of the post got it right. June just read it wrong.

    What was cut out before started talking about how they had wrestled for WCW? A similar thing happened for the No Hold Barred Episode when Jason interrupted an audience member.

     

    Jason didn't interrupt an audience member during no holds barred, the audience member's question was why do the men always interrupted June. June was about to respond and Jason jokingly interrupted and said that he would respond. It was actually a funny moment, but I get why they edited out the whole exchange.

    Is it just me or does June sound drained and slow since Color of Night? She seems more ponderous, slower...side effect of the pregnancy? I don't know...probably just me.

     

    Also, I thought the "finding porn in the woods" thing derailed No Holds Barred for almost 11 minutes, but thanks, Rob Corddry, for the whole hardware store thing, that REALLY simulated Xanax for most people.

     

    The finding porn in the woods was the highlight of that episode, for me at least.

    Fast and the Furious movies are legitimately enjoyable. Some of the 80s movies they have done are ones that I view through nostalgic glasses, but beyond that it is mostly garbage.

     

    I will say that I wanted to hate the Green Lantern more than I actually did. It wasn't a good movie, but it was way more watchable than the preview led me to believe.

    I'm surprised they didn't talk about my favourite part of the movie. The parking garage scene where the car is about 4 floors higher than Bruce Willis yet is able to stalk him. There is no way in the hell the driver of that car would have been able to see Bruce Willis during this scene.

     

    Forgot about that... I literally laughed out loud during that scene
