Weekend Box Office #134
So yeah, big overestimatage on STAR TREK last weekend. Forgot that it's still sort of a cult property -- though $75 million is nothing to sneeze at.
This weekend's big movie is ANGELS & DEMONS, which opens in 3,527. Let's see, factor in Tom Hanks, multiply it by action, divide it by somewhat mediocre reviews (and a somewhat mediocre first film) but boost it a couple of levels because the over-40 crowd might turn out for it and there isn't much else out there for them.
Let's call it $63 million for the weekend. Feel free to toss in your best guess; that one was out of my ass.

Not into "Angels and Demons" the Dan Brown inspired movie -- though I've been known to throw an angel or a couple demons into any given script I've penned...
Up here in Washington the Seattle Times did a review on the documentary "Tyson" based on events of the infamous boxer. Train wreck factor alone raised an eyebrow of interest from your truely.

Sup, dudes.
I checked over at boxofficeguru, looks like A & D will do about 43-46 million. Not bad, but pretty far under most estimates, no? I thought it'd do better.
Crap reviews again.
ST didn't fall off (like Wolverine did) -- so maybe that was the alternate choice. It seems ST will have legs and catch up to Monsters & Aliens for the top spot.
Hey Scott,
I have a question with which I hope you can help. There seems to be some debate about what to put on one's title page. Copyright info or WGAw or nothing. Some sites say it is a sign of an amateur and can date your script, while others say some producers won't read it without it. What is your experience? Any advice?
Thanks.
