TeaParty Congressman Blames Park Ranger for Shutdown

silvercord says...

Dude should have just kept his mouth shut, knocked down the fn' barricades and let the Veterans have their day. I feel sorry for the Park Ranger, but worse for the Vets on the Honor Flight.

Top Ten Summer Box Office Bombs 2013

Top Ten Summer Box Office Bombs 2013

Trout says...

The information in this video is deceptively incomplete. Modern major-release movies are enormously expensive to make and a big part of their profit calculation includes the worldwide market. In fact, country-specific versions of these films are often released in overseas markets, sometimes with new characters/scenes added just for them.

So while it's perhaps culturally interesting to see whether a particular flick was popular with Americans, the economic side of the movie business cares not.

It's almost quaint that someone would report only U.S. box office totals today - particularly when using that data to call a film a bomb. Here's the real bottom line for these "bombs" (total worldwide grosses as of 9/2013 - and counting):

After Earth $243m ($130m budget)
The Lone Ranger $243m ($215m budget)
Elysium $213m ($115m budget)
Turbo $157m ($135m budget)
Red 2 $120m ($ 84m budget)
White House Down $153m ($150m budget)

Heck, even Mortal Instruments ($66.6m, $60m budget) and The Internship ($83m, $58m budget) have made millions.

These movies are almost all profitmakers - often enormously so. Just, you know, not as much as we were hyped to believe in the States.

(That said - R.I.P.D. was actually a bomb! The only real one here, I'd say. But I think the film companies will survive.)

Jimmy Kimmel Live - Five-Year-Old Presidential Expert

chingalera says...

I don't knooow Yogi, i think the park ranger's kid is able to read-He's regurgitating trivia he's probably consumed since he became literate, he's simply attached himself to the Presidential train. How about a 3 year-old-promise who by the time he was seven knew more about Vucanology (having devoured every printed page on the subject available via his parent's $$) than a university Junior? His second favorite book was an Oxford English Dictionary on CD ROM, so the kid learned some of the most difficult and obscure words in the lexicon as well as their meanings. There's probably 25 million Chinese children on the planet sharper than this kid, same age. Oh, and we're all trained regurgitates of the same clan my friend-

He's got moxie-Love the way he stands up in that school desk, be nice to see more folks' children utilize theirs similarly.....

>> ^Trout:

>> ^VoodooV:
Disney owns Marvel AND Lucasfilm.
fuck....

Not just Marvel and Lucasfilm! They also own Pixar. And ESPN. And not to mention Hyperion (they're known for something called "books"). And oh almost forgot - something called ABC! And a big chunk of Hulu.

And let's not leave out - both the Muppets AND the Might Morphin' Power Rangers! Sheesh... why not sell them DC, Star Trek and Harry Potter and just be done with it already.


Disney bought Pixar but the deal made Steve Jobs the majority stakeholder in Disney so you might say that Pixar runs the show since then.
