The Purge is set to be the next Paranormal Activity. Making that much money on a budget of $3 million dollars is just gonna spur them on.

The Internship deservedly bombs at the box office.

Hopefully they're not as formulaic as paranormal activity. You could do some interesting ideas with an anthology series.

Yeah. you could do so many things with what would happen during these 12 hours known as The Purge. It could be the realization of what the Halloween series was going to be before Halloween 3 killed it. Heck, you could do a hitman movie where a hitman has 12 hours to kill his target.

Bomb Internship bomb. Vince Vaughn is probably the biggest untalented A Lister in Hollywood. It's sad I'm wishing this to bomb because I like google and Owen Wilson We agree, but it makes me sad when I heard Jason Bateman call him one of the funniest men in Hollywood. Maybe he is more funny behind the scenes which probably could be why people are willing to work with him. You know, funny in that whole he can easily break the ice in a stressful situation that always happens in films.

Have someone's business be based around the Purge, his target is racing around trying to avoid a relentless hitman desperately hoping for sunrise. That'd be an amazing movie, I'd watch it at least. And it'd do a whole lot more with the premise than just having it be a typical home invasion movie.

I think when Vince Vaughn praise comes from his contemporaries it's helpful to keep in perspective how impressive the success he and Favreau had with Swingers, and his work in that movie. I think that's what they're thinking about when they talk about his merits not stuff like Couples Retreat.

How he stole the show. It's like after Wedding Crashers he decided to coast on his success and accept the worst films or roles for him.

See also Sylvester Stallone or Robert Deniro or generally a lot of actors at a certain point.

See also Sylvester Stallone or Robert Deniro or generally a lot of actors at a certain point. It is like actors go through this arc if they are graced with a long career: - Rise to fame, can either be a slow or fast rise and can be when they are young or in their 30s/40s. - After several years, a decade at the most, they kind of coast, taking a lot of work that is sub-par to the work that they did during their rising period. - After several decades of that, either their money has dried up or they want to leave a legacy beyond being in a crap load of bad movies after starting out great, they start doing good movies again and then continue on until they retire.

1 The Purge (2013) $36.4M $36.4M 1 2 Fast & Furious 6 (2013) $19.8M $203M 3 3 Now You See Me (2013) $19.5M $61.4M 2 4 The Internship (2013) $18.1M $18.1M 1 5 Epic (2013) $12.1M $84.2M 3 6 Star Trek Into Darkness (2013) $11.7M $200M 4 7 After Earth (2013) $11.2M $46.6M 2 8 The Hangover Part III (2013) $7.38M $102M 3 9 Iron Man 3 (2013) $5.79M $394M 6 10 The Great Gatsby (2013) $4.23M $136M 5 Awesome to see Fast 6 get number 2. It is a fun movie, with an amazing set-up for the sequel. I'm not kidding it caused me to say "Oh f*** yeah." And I think it's safe to classify Hangover III as a disappointment.

I guess this week's Box Office question is "How badly will Man of Steel beat This is the End?"

Hangover III would of done better against The Great Fatsby last week since they are two different audiences and This is the End would of done better against The Purge I don't know why they are releasing these R-rated comedies head to head against high profile action films. They pretty much have the same audience, but the action films also have lower age ratings so more people can see them. It is suicide and is sending the film to die.

At least they were smart enough to open them on Wednesday.
