Basic Instinct Flops...Ice Age Rocks

So, in an amazing stroke of luck...I was right. Basic Instinct flopped like a fish on the deck. The $70 million sequel pulled in a whopping 3.2 million, barely beating the gross-out comedy "Larry The Cable Guy: Health Inspector." No big shock. Also, in from the "anyone could have seen that coming" file, "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown" came in on top of the box, pulling in $68 million. That's a lot of green!
Two other new releases, the urban drama ATL and the James Gunn directed horror-comedy Slither, managed to both end up in the top ten, with ATL grossing $11.5 mil. and Slither grossing $3.8 mil.
Next week, Ice Age should be getting some competition from Disney's The Wild and Scary Movie 4.

  • Hey! Ice Age Meltdown was awesome!! It's sad, but that's one of the only movies I've seen in the theater lately. Ya gotta luv going to the movies with a 4-year-old! So basically, only films that have animated mamoths or a wide variety of barnyard animals get us to the theater anymore ... too bad ... what are the odds that "Inside Man" has barnyard animals?? Not high probably. Too bad for me.
