I'm really curious to see how FWDAJ gets on this week, I think a you can get a better idea of what people think of the film because maybe quite a few have been recommended to see it by friends.
I saw Munich yesterday, a very powerfull film, as I was at the cinema already kinda thought they wouldnt mind if I sneeked in to see FWDAJ again, don't tell anyone else will you

Was it number one on its opening week? I dunno.

I was quite surprised when I went along to see it. It was its second night, the multiplex we went to only had it showing on one screen and we went to an evening performance and the theatre was barely half full! Not a great endorsement.

There I was, telling my guy not to order another half of lager before we went in, as we would get the crap seats!

No such worries in the end! LOL.
I don't know if it will get a huge word-of-mouth boost. I love Jim Carrey films and even I told my workmates it was just not a spectacular JC film. And I'm normally all for battling his corner! Lol.

I know, I know, I'm terrible.......

'Munich' does look an excellent movie. So does 'Syriana', when it arrives. Perhaps I'll get back to the cinema soon....

no.....he should be saying "way to go" to u guys since u are the ones that made FWDJ break even and put more money in his ever growing pocket so he can pay the bills and to buy more Andy Kaufman memorablia.

lol.........well if it makes him happy i have no problem with it.........lol..
He's a modest bloke..........not a flashy git like Donald Trump for example......he deserves his rewards......he's paid for them with a lot of blood sweat and tears..........

@TNPhil: An old scan? No it's brandnew

. I mad this picture from the newest TV magazine which is there in Germany at the moment

. I only linked it this way because one can not upload pictures here and the img button did not work.

ok Blunt. But the Top 10 is from January 12-15, 2006, so it is a few weeks old.

Making it two weeks at the top, Jim Carrey managed a triumph over Spielberg's latest as it fell just 29% from last weekend. Grossing $2,449,541 pushed it's running total up to $7,037,816 making it the 5th top grossing film of the year behind "Memoirs of a Geisha". Looks to be heading into the $15.0m region which would be Carrey's 9th top grossing film in the UK behind "Dumb and Dumber".
