OMG!

Star Girl is a god damn monster of a hit. 4 WEEKS IN A ROW AS THE #1 MOVIE!

The performance for Star Girl is amazing considering there's been some great competitors going against it every week but its been putting a stomping on them. Just dominating. I am so happy this movie is going to make $200+ million as its total gross. If it plays in the TOP 10 through the summertime it might make it to $300 million. Its legs are strong during the weeklys to get there eventually. If not its still a surprising hit and the first model movie for those looking to get a hit of their own like this.

My other movie Only When I Laugh is another Rotten Tomatoes critically acclaimed movie that's actually nominated for best screenplay at the Oscars this year so I am definitely proud about that. Only When I Laugh is performing different than most films, its actually performing as a film with heavy legs on it that seems to be improving week to week like most Oscar films do. Only When I Laugh is improving in its numbers every week. Hopefully Addison Trails doesn't steal its thunder next weekend and it can slowly reach $100 million.

Good job getting these up Spencer. I know its tough for you and Big Prox to get the numbers up when you can for us so I am very appreciative of that.

The real standout over the last few weeks has been Runaway Train and Once Upon a Mattress who have both been scoring awesomely well over the past couple of weeks. Once Upon a Mattress will be getting to $100 million in no time and Runaway Train is a week away from getting there. Sure Rod will be happy about that.

I can't wait until next week when Addison Trails makes its debut. I'm going to have really promote this movie just as hard as Star Girl b/c its really our one critically perfectly reviewed movie that has a chance to be the most impactful picture of 2010 but I'm not expecting a Star Girl performance but somewhere along the lines of long-term gross. We'll see what happens.

Box office is so fun, keep up the good work Spencer.

Great job on getting these up Spence! Spence I think I'm going to start paying you points for everytime you release these numbers. What do ya think?

I will analyze these later and give out the points for previous weeks.

Spencer deserves those points make sure its a good amount. Without him the box office game would be dead. The box office is a huge entity on NITRO b/c most of our points earnings come from it and we can produce our own theatricals for our networks.
