Pirates Rape/Pillage Competition!!!

get it?  she's using MAGIC to draw an audience!  LOOK AT THEMN GATHER!It looks like Tia Dalma has worked her wicky hoojoo on theater goers again.  Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest topped all new entries in the box office pile this weekend.  It made like another $62.freakin'.2 millions dollars at the box office for it's second weekend, and that brings its crazy ass total to over $258 million bucks.  Yeah that means it's the number one movie so far this year, beating X3 (  3:^O  ).  What is really crazy is that I just saw it today, and yowza was it fun.  I wasn't expecting so much fun, and it was like totally visually stimulating.

So two other movies opened this weekend, and all of us were either too lazy or horrified to actually see them.  Little Man the Wayan Bros. new non-com actually opened in second with $21.7 milllions, which will just encourage them to do another digusting looking comedy.  Their last one, that White Chicks movie was particularly insulting to me and me alone.  So they totally disgusted us as white chicks, and now as a little man.  I am guessing they will go for broke next and disguise themselves as Steven Buscemi and Joan Cusack.

EWWW.  I totally just skieved myself out.

Opening in third this weekend was You, Me and Dupree the Owen Wilson and other people comedy about an unwanted house guest.  The preview alone of that one made me pray for bird flu, so I skipped it to.  We all did.  WHAT BAD MOVIE NEWS PEOPLE WE ARE!  But I am particularly awful and stuff because I had a chance to see it at a sneak like a month ago, and was all no way.

Here's the top ten for this week totally ripped off from Yahoo!:

1. "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," $62.2 million.

2. "Little Man," $21.7 million.

3. "You, Me and Dupree," $21.3 million.

4. "Superman Returns," $11.6 million.

5. "The Devil Wears Prada," $10.45 million.

6. "Cars," $7.5 million.

7. "Click," $7 million.

8. "The Lake House," $1.6 million.

9. "Nacho Libre," $1.5 million.

10. "A Scanner Darkly," $1.2 million.

UK had an interesting weekend...

Because it was Pirate's 2nd week, but opening week for Superman. I did plan to see both, but the weather has been freakin' gorgeous (85 degrees in Scotland is just crazy) but today it's all cloudy n' stuff. Might go catch them both today. Pirates made almost £14 million last week, which is about $25 million. Stoopid tiny country.

in addition to last post

when I originally posed that comment, the title hadn't appeared, and when I came back to the site, and read the title, I thought it was a new post announcing some bizarre contest where participents had to rape, or indeed pillage, in order to win Pirates of the Caribbean goodies.
