Despite getting terrible reviews, Beyonce’s new flick, Obsessed, was easily the top dog at the box office this weekend, bringing in an impressive $28.5. The film co-stars Idris Elba and Ali Larter.
I’m not a huge Beyonce fan, but I’ll probably wind up renting this movie at some point just because I’m in love with Ali Larter.
Zac Efron scooted into second place with 17 Again, which brought in $11.7M in its second weekend. It looks like Fighting and The Soloist will take third and fourth places, respectively.
Studios are heading into summer on a box-office tear, with receipts running at a record pace. Revenues for the year are at $3.06 billion, up 17.4% over last year. Factoring in higher ticket prices, movie attendance is up 15.7 percent.
“We have never been in this strong a position heading into the summer season, ever,” said Paul Dergarabedian, president of Media By Numbers.
Well, at least this shitty economy is good for something. Nobody has the cash to travel or shop, so we’re all going to the movies. Although for what it costs to take a family of four to the movies these days, you can probably get a round-trip plane ticket to Hollywood on Priceline.
Obsessed? Really? hm.
With the amount of money this bitch has, you’d think she would be able to afford a stylist!
Wow, her dress is something, and that’s after seeing Ali Larter’s dress ( I love her, hated her premier dress). It’s not the color or the cut, but that it stops at her widest point and the train merely accentuates how much of the dress is not there. A few more inches, maybe a bit of color, and it would have been fine. Oh well, at least it’s not covered in gold piping, tassels or feathers.
Its a mullet dress. I hate mullet dresses!!!
LOL at “mullet dress.” Great term.
At first I thought she was standing in front of a bus shelter.
I LOOOOVE ALI LARTER!!!!!!!!!!!!! she is so freaking hot!!
The 80’s called…thsy want that ugly dress back! Oh…you are so thick!!!
