Despite the lukewarm reviews, Prince Caspian was first place at the box office with 56 million. I’ve decided to wait it out and see it at the discount theater.

Iron Man still cleaning up at second place with 31 million, while Speed Racer came in fourth place with only 7.6 million, proving it’s not destined to win the summer box office race.

Prom Night was number one at the box office this weekend, which is beyond unbelievable. I agree with Defamer’s resentment and disillusionment at the state of horror movie business. It seems that studios would rather go easy on the gore and secure a PG 13 rating, then y’know make a decent horror flick that happens to be rated R.

Coming in second place was Keanu Reeves crime thriller, Street Kings. I actually forgot all about this movie.

After watching the trailer and reading Pajiba’s review, I think it might be decent. It might have to be a matinee, but I’m putting it on my must see list along with Smart People. The comedy-drama debuted at number 7 with 4.4 million.

Disturbia wins again at the box office for the third week in a row! I love the round-up at Defamer, really puts everything into perspective. I love their little joke about Shia’s agent laughing all the way to the bank. I can just imagine LaBeouf’s manager and/or agents throwing piles of money in air, jumping up and down in their Tommy Hilfiger sleepwear.

I wonder if Mark, the head writer at Defamer, took a long time deliberating over that joke, or does it come naturally to him. Imagine him or one of the staff writers in a dusty apartment haggering over each word on his discount sheets (cuz that advertising money doesn’t pay that much). Either way, the site is hilarious. You can be having a crap day and read Defamer and know there’s gonna be someone there for you to make cynical jokes about Hollywood. Defamer may be shopping at Rockaway bedding for luxurious sheets (unlike Shia’s agents), but he still knows how to spot cynics and fakes from a mile away.
