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

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
