Week 2: Update

As of last week, Hancock and The Wackness both opened. Also, as of yet, no one has acquired Journey to the Center of the Earth which opens this coming weekend alongside Hellboy 2. So here are the updates, and they are shocking with LSS coming up fast and taking second.

Journey to the Center of the Earth ? ? ? ?
August ?????
Garden Party ??????
Baghead??????
Assassination of a High School President???????

After reviewing the upcoming release schedule for films in theaters at boxofficemojo.com...I realized that Fantasy Moguls doesn't include all of the releases. Therefore I have included the missing releases here and they have ???? because I don't know what their predictions are for money. Choose wisely!

Pick o' the week: You have a bad movie that isn't going anywhere and you need some BO, try swapping out for Journey to the Center of the Earth. It's IMDB will be bleh and it probably won't make it in PTA. But it might get some Top 5 points for one week and it should make a decent amount more than any indie releases.

Sincerely,
Wannabe
