    Last Days of Disco

    I’ve been wanting to watch it forever, but because it was released in a very limited production and was fetching insane prices on eBay, I had never been able to watch The Last Days of Disco until late last night. Luckily, Brandon — being the sweet and caring guy he is — decided to bring me over a care package that included Fallout 3, the strat guide for it, chicken soup and the aforementioned movie on DVD.

    The truth is that I had no idea whether or not it was even a good movie. I just wanted to see it for the young Kate Beckinsale because that’s all it takes for me sometimes, as seen by my extensive Jessica Alba movie collection. What I found out that it was a fairly entertaining movie and was worth watching for more than just Kate Beckinsale jerk material. It gets a full cock up from me.

    My Dark Knight Prediction

    First off, let me just say what everyone else has already said…The Dark Knight is a phenomenal movie and is arguably the best comic book movie ever released. I still haven’t seen Iron Man yet, but I do like it more than anything else that I have seen. The whole direction they took the movies starting with Batman Begins was genius, Bale does an awesome job as Bruce Wayne/Batman and Heath Ledger deserves Oscar consideration for his role as The Joker. My only complaint about the movie is that the female lead just wasn’t hot enough. I’m sorry but Donnie Darko’s sister just isn’t attractive enough to be a superhero’s love interest. Just doesn’t work for me! Other than that, though, it’s a wicked awesome movie.

    With that out of the way, I’m here to make my prediction as to what it’ll finish with at the box office domestically. It’s currently at an estimated $394 million, making it already the 8th highest grossing moving of all time after three weeks. There’s talk of whether or not it can take down Titanic, but, as most experts agree, I don’t think it really has a chance. Where will it fall then? My guess is that it’ll fall in at #2 with an all-time domestic box office gross of $516,533,518 (+/- 5%). Putting it about $56 million ahead of Star Wars but still about $84 million short of the movie where Leo dies like a little bitch at the end because he doesn’t have enough meat on him to withstand the cold water unlike his chubby, rich, and well-fed girlfriend.
