People are revved up about The Dark Knight, though interestingly, most of the box office hype is coming from Fandango and MovieTickets.com, which are hyping themselves and their services in the process. It feels more like a little like the noise over Sex & The City. Of course, that turned into a $57 million opening weekend... but people are hyping the upcoming one as being almost 2.5 times that big... and if you look at the old ticket pre-sale info, Dark Knight is not at running 2.5 times S&TX's number. Still... anything can happen. The DK vibe is strong... but there is sure to be a lot of controversy around kids under 10 and women once they start seeing the film in droves.
I can't stop singing "Mamma Mia," but I still can't reccomend the film.
Anyway...
There must be SOMETHING else to discuss, right?
