Sep 22 2008 People Were Loving 'Lakeview Terrace' This Weekend
People paid to see these movies over the weekend:
1. Lakeview Terrace - $15.6 million. Maybe we should start making every Lifetime Original Movie concept into a Samuel L. Jackson film.
2. Burn After Reading - $11.3 million--the best take ever for a movie about ocular chlamydia.
3. My Best Friend's Girl - Congratulations, Dane Cook, you got people to pay you for playing an even worse version of yourself again. ($8.3 million)
4. Igor - Sorry, Igor 2: HumpBack 2 the Castle, you just got cancelled. ($8 million)
5. Righteous Kill - $7.7 million. That's fine, though. The studios will make all their money in merchandising when Righteous Kill shirts become the Scarface shirts for the old, retired thug crowd.

Aug 5 2008 'Igor' Poster Begins New Fear-Based Marketing Tactic
Hey, kids, did you ever realize that, at any point, one of your dolls might grow to an obscene size, have its delicate eyelashes replaced by spider legs, and scare the shit out of you? That a common gumball machine could gain sentience, sprout a mechanical arm, and force your juvenile body through its narrow dispenser? Have you known the fear of a rabbit/Olsen Twin chimera? Or how scarring it is to see a shrugging, computer-generated David Gest? YOU WILL.
Why not just put, "Kids are constantly getting raped and murdered. Also: Igor!" That would be slightly less disturbing.

Apr 23 2008 'Igor' Poster: You've Got the Wrong Guy, Buddy
What the hey--John Cusack is Igor? I don't think so. Look at that awkward grin, those sunken, soulless eyes, the perfectly smooth features, the unfortunate status of being relevant only through someone else's accomplishments. Clearly David Gest is Igor.
