it was 100 degrees at 10am here....good grief....I went to see Bourne Ultimatum to get out of the heat, thinking it would be nice and cool there....not! it was about 80 inside the theatre.
Hollywood credits global warming for boom...
Is global warming good for Hollywood? Extreme heat and heavy rain across large swaths of the U.S. sent more people to theaters, looking for relief. The onset of the extreme weather -- record-breaking temperatures in the western U.S., rain up and down the Eastern seaboard, the Midwest and Texas -- started at the end of June, just as the box office was starting to see a bump. "You went from dreadful heat to downpours," Snyder says. "Historically, we've seen a bounce in grosses when the weather is bad. Also, when kids can't go outside, and make their parents nuts, they send them to the movies."
hehe!
(now late-summer heat waves are "global warming?")
