Feb 8 2010Weekend Box Office: 'Avatar' Dethroned By Step Up/Mean Girl Romance
1. Dear John - $32.4 million, a higher-than-expected gross for a film based on a Judd Hirsch sitcom. (Or a Ralph Bates sitcom, you Brits.)
2. Avatar - $23.6 million. Ah, yes. Avatar.
3. From Paris with Love - $8.1 million. It's starting to seem like the kids these days don't even care when John Travolta shaves his head and shoots a bunch of guns anymore.
4. Edge of Darkness - $7 million. It's starting to seem like the kids these days don't even care when Mel Gibson shouts about his missing/dead offspring anymore.
5. Tooth Fairy - $6.5 million. No one ever cared about hockey players being tooth fairies, and still don't.

I can't believe people went to see Dear Duke. I reviewed it and therefore got paid to watch it, but even then it almost wasn't worth it.

Well, it's nice to know that no matter how disappointing Avatar's writing was, it can't be as bad as this Nicolas Sparks piece of shit.
If there was going to be a movie that finally beat Avatar in the box office, why did it have to be one so odious?

Avatar had 'disappointing' writing? Um, no, not the movie I saw. I think people are merely shunning Avatar of recent because of its popularity. I'm not among them
