Here is the Brake in the Back Mountain film?
What is the price of Syriana? Has it even made back its advertising costs? Nyuk-nyuk.
Not even in the top 10. I guess American's didn't want to see a movie about queer sheep herders after all.
12th place and will be in fewer theatres on Friday.

14th place, down from 13th last week.
Where's Syriana? Heh heh heh...
Ahhhhhh....GOD is SOOOO GOOD indeed.
Here's the deal: Kong came out about a week later, and the two films are neck and neck.
Narnia's showing some excellent holding power.
Wasn't Syriana great guns in the first weekend of release? It really fell off.
What happened to the shepherd that got bored with sheep?
On a serious note I took two of my grandchildren to see Narnia on Sunday and we didn't get thrown out which speaks to the effect of the movie on my youguns at any rate.
Did it ever get a wide release date?
Movie Web says the total box office of Syrana was $30 Million as of 01/02/05. Click below for an update.

That warn't no sheep that bored him.
Exactly.
For Narnia to still be taking in these sales, and topping Kong that debuted a week later is making waves as surely as TPOTC did.
Kong was being pushed as THE big Giant that would dominate by certain sectors that also downplayed Narnia. Kong's done well, but not as well as Narnia.
The article says King Kong would break $400 million world wide by Monday. Is that true? It hasn't even hit $200 million in the US.
I saw Narnia and recommend it. Over the weekend, I saw Walk the Line and recommend that too. Joaquin Phoenix gave an Academy Award winning performance as Johnny Cash.
I hope I don't have to see one more commercial for that movie. One has the men one behind the other with a little up and down action.
