Hmm, interesting list... however, some of these are very recent and some have been in theaters for quite a bit. Any chance that there is a way to calculate just the earnings based on how many weeks the film has been out? I'm no math wiz, but I think there's some formula for that. :?:

Great list, Remus, thanks.

Bill, maybe just putting the number of weeks the movie's been out in parenthesis would help, and then the list can be updated at least every Monday.

I wonder if Stepford Wives' $56m+ will be enough to bring about the Stepford Husbands? I hope so.

So are BoxofficeMojoand IMDB, which are far more interesting and colourful.

What was the point of this list? I mean, other than to boost your post count?

hmm that's strange i thought i heard something. i guess it was just my imagination. remember there is no such thing known as Loomis

frankly, i wouldnt be making more posts since i would editing my first post every week. and when you edit a post, you are actually NOT gaining a post at all.
