Thanks for the response. Hope Open Road didn't pay much for the distribution rights because it looks like a bomb.

Kristen Bell is never going to happen. The sooner Hollywood learns that the better for their bottom line.

Any word on how Hit and Run is doing nationally? When I saw it tonight there were only 5 others in the theatre. {nm} MrSmitherz Aug 22, 22:23

I don't know about nationally, but its doing very poorly here. Less people than Born, Expend, Odd life, etc. {nm} whitewalls Aug 22, 23:14

Saw it at 12:15 here in North San Diego County -- 9 people. That's about 1/4 of what "Hope Springs" did two weeks ago at the same show... dsbman Aug 22, 23:23

Saw the stars on late night shows...would like to root for it but I can't get past my reservations that this just isn't going to perform. {nm} Catzan Aug 22, 23:45

The distributor, Open Road, doesn't have a great promotional history. And I don't think DShepard is bringing droves. {nm} rayw Aug 22, 23:49

The Grey did well, didn't it? Open Road doesn't release very many movies in order to take advantage of its built-in distribution edge {nm} MrSmitherz Aug 23, 00:06

'The Grey' pulled in an average of $2k per day of it's OWE: http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=grey.htm {nm} rayw Aug 23, 00:14

And in the grand scheme of genrés, H&R is a pretty lame premise. OWE BO results will likely be... rayw Aug 23, 00:20

Veronica Mars is one of my favorite shows. I hope Kristen Bell can achieve a hit some day.. her next one looks like a bomb too. :( {nm} MiyazakiFan Aug 23, 07:24

(By next one I meant that new IPO and not Movie 43) {nm} MiyazakiFan Aug 23, 07:25

Forgetting Sarah Marshall did pretty well, although it was more an Apatow ensemble than a Kristen Bell feature {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 23, 10:19
