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

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
