The majority of movie goers aren't worrying about directors unless it's Tarantino, Speilberg ect. Which are frequently mentioned throughout the promtion of the film anyway. |

But still, the way in which Singer revived the comic-to-movie adaptation after Batman and Robin did have a big influence. I have to say X-Men was an awesome adaptation. Although X2 is my fav out of the 3. |

Anywyas, I highly doubt it'll end up being the final part in a trilogy. It just pulled in 107 mil on opening weekend. Do you honestly think they wont make another one? I know they claim it's the last one, but we all know how Hollywood works and if it'll make money, they'll make it. X4 would make money & they know it. I bet there are Hollywwod fatcats in LA right now throwing around ideas. |
There have been press releases from Fox chiefs on these lines already. X3 was part of "this trilogy" which has concluded, according to them. Read this (dated Jan 26, 2006) :-
"Despite the stupid title "X-Men: The Last Stand", Fox Head Tom Rothman has confirmed that there will indeed be an X-Men 4, and probably more after that as well. Now it's all well and good for him to say that now... but if X-Men 3 is a bomb (which we all know it won't be... even if it sucks) then those words will be quickly eaten. So why the title "The Last Stand" then? Well, according to the good folks over at Movie Hole, Rothman offers the following explanation: “It's the conclusion of this trilogy. These three movies work as a trilogy. These characters in this relationship, it's the culmination of that saga. It's the culmination and the resolution of those relationships laid out in the first two movies. That doesn't mean never, I would ever say never again, but I will say that this brings that saga to an end. It's quite the way the last Lord of the Rings, Return of the King, brought that trilogy to a conclusion in terms of those characters, that's what this movie does. It goes all the way back to the first one and rounds off and completes that three-part story”. Perhaps someone should tell Rothman that the end of the Lord of the Rings was indeed actually the end of the whole series. He might have missed that part." The X-Men series might be going for a new storyline...who knows? Maybe they will get Vince Vaughn or Clive Owen to play Gambit in X4. :D |

There are a few big movies opening this week....
Disney's Cars, as well as The Omen (Which opens Tuesday, but we are still only counting the Fri-Sun box office), A Prairie Home Companion all open widely, as well as An Inconvenient Truth, which is expanding to show in more theatres. |
Well that's where I messed up last week with 'Prairie Home Companion', it hadn't opened wide yet.
Also, I don't think it makes sense to open on a Tuesday just for the marketing date. |

congrads BW...you were better than the rest of us...
I didnt expect X3 to tumble down so soon, and taking Da Vinci Code with it. Last Stand might have done #2, but #1?? damn. Anyway, the curiosity value of the Pitt - Aniston break-up was more than the Jean Grey saga last week. Oh well. 1 thing about the curiosity value. If viewers are curious enough about Omen, then a release on a Tuesday wont matter. It takes only 3-4 days to break box-office records (as we have seen in X3 and other movies in the past) so lets see what happens to the Omen post 06 - 06 - 06. |
Week 5
Cars -71 million The Omen X-Men: The Last Stand The Break-Up Over the Hedge The Da Vinci Code Mission: Impossible III Poseidon A Prairie Home Companion An Inconvenient Truth I think X-Men will overcome The Break Up this week, but I doubt anyone will come close to touching Cars. |
