Possibly bad news (if
Lee's Movie Info is to be believed): thus far for the weekend the
B. O. is up only 8.6% from last year, perhaps less if the numbers weren't faked -- certainly it's up much less in attendance, no doubt -- and few people are going to see ANYTHING ELSE. NEWS HACKS will call this a triumph because of "What's Good for Time Warner" syndrome, but when the collapse comes next week it will be hard for even the SHOW-BIZ FLACKS to paint their typical smiley face on the situation.
