1235 days in the top 100 sci fi books. Near 4 years? I guess people are still reading it. So much for " The book series, being as old as it is, lacks much relevance to today's younger generation."

A little work and one can find more to discount that statement. Actually, thinking the statement through it's likely the writer never read the book. Dated? It's not like reading Verne or Wells.

Wow, their NSID2 prediction has been adjusted up to 41M. That's a huge jump, I think it was originally around 25? {nm} slappydavid Sep 07, 07:38

Rush not draw? CHEMS draws. RDAWN was horrible and I think peoplew saw because of him, and perhaps nostalgia. I seriously doubt that one... tatoufan Sep 07, 08:46

Aside from Rush, I agree, looks like another line of dreadful OW's. {nm} tatoufan Sep 07, 08:48

I'd never heard of this rivalry. Friendly wager it won't open wide to $14M? :) {nm} islander: live at wrigley! Sep 07, 14:34

No kidding Islander. I don't know how a rivalry that 95% of the population has never heard of can qualify as "one of the greatest in the... Willroast Sep 07, 18:06

In my opinion, it's not so much that CHEMS is a draw, but rather the movies he's been in. He's been spot on in his choices. Willroast Sep 07, 18:16

Get ready to learn all about it. DL says, "The story is a powerful one ..." Pete Hamond talks Oscars for Rush.. tatoufan Sep 09, 01:32

Since i am not a formula one fan and didn't grow up in Europe, I hadn't either til I researched it. It' a great story, inspirational.... tatoufan Sep 07, 19:51

Absolutely, if it has the screens it will do it. {nm} tatoufan Sep 07, 19:52

Wanna spread bet the under on 50 mil gross? {nm} tatoufan Sep 07, 19:58
