Oct 13 2008Talking Animals Retain Popularity from Week to Week
Weekend box office results!
1. Beverly Hills Chihuahua - $17.5 million. Number one. For the second straight week. Nice job, everyone.
2. Quarantine - $14.2 million, which is worse than the talking dog movie's second week.
3. Body of Lies - $13.1 million--way less than the second week of the movie where dogs talk.
4. Eagle Eye - $11 million, suggesting the stars of this film were probably humans rather than, say, talking dogs in their second week of a movie's run.
5. Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist - $6.5 million. Infinite playlist? More like infinitely less popular than another week of talking dogs!

I stopped asking how stuff like this can happen when while visiting my family, I was asked to leave the living room so they could watch 2 & a Half Men, and I had to go into the garage with a mini-set to watch the presidential debates.

This should make Mark Wahlberg a happy camper.

Seems like this dog is about to push our sainted writer over the edge...

Fixed.
