Huh. The re-release of Titanic was not the #1 movie yesterday.

Posted by Inigo (aka Inigo) Apr 5 '12, 13:33

Hunger Games was.

Responses:

I just watched the clip on IMDB and I thought it funny that they mentioned it was by James Cameron - amoxy Apr 5, 14:07
Spawn went 3 times yesterday -- nm - Remlik Apr 5, 13:42 6
- But I bought three Hunger Games tickets. -- nm - Iron Spawn Apr 5, 13:43 5
  - we doing Cabin in the Woods? -- nm - Remlik Apr 5, 13:47 4
    - when does this start? - Epiphany Apr 5, 13:49 3
      - this weekend, Baybee! (right?) -- nm - Diva Apr 5, 13:49 2
        
        oh HELLS yes. SM owes me a movie night - I'm collecting on this - Epiphany Apr 5, 13:51 1
        
        sounds good. Imma try to catch it on Saturday. -- nm - Diva Apr 5, 13:52
It only had 1 showtime at every theater I checked. -- nm - MDH Apr 5, 13:36 2
- i just checked - looks like 3 screenings per day here. -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 13:40 1
  - Starting today it's multiple screenings/theaters, yesterday was only 1 showtime 6:30PM -- nm - MDH Apr 5, 13:49
Why "Huh"? - Iron Spawn Apr 5, 13:35
Based on tracking, Hunger Game will very possibly beat both American Reunion and Titanic 3D this weekend. -- nm - ty97 Apr 5, 13:35 4
- They don't think AMPI3 or Titanic get to 30mil? - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:40 1
  - MTC had 26 and 21 -- (link) - ty97 Apr 5, 13:46
- I'll be very surprised if that happens. -- nm - David Apr 5, 13:39
- well, AR doesn't even COUNT in that comparison, does it? -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 13:36

- i was trying to remember if i played it. 97 is when i started on HSX but i think it predates me just ever so slightly. i think. - Andie Apr 5, 13:36 30
  - It opened a couple of weeks after I started playing and was too rich for me. IIRC it actually adjusted down...to $72? -- nm - MojaveMeg Apr 5, 13:44
  - I only bought 10k shares of it before leaving college to go home for winter break - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:36 28
    - dumbass -- nm - pixitude Apr 5, 13:38
    - do you find it slightly crazy that you remember that? -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 13:37 26
      - naw, I remember some of my early scores and massive losses, I came in '98 and remember TITAN talked about still warmly like a mink coat in miami -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 5, 13:40
      - i find it slightly crazy that we all were that into it, and that virtually none of us play anymore. - TFox Apr 5, 13:40 20
        
        I was really into during college, and when it went orange, I literally cold turkey-ed it in a week. -- nm - MDH Apr 5, 13:52
        
        I was still playing until they upped the number of shares. - Diva Apr 5, 13:48 3
        
        too bad they didn't have an option: "e-mail Support to max all your shares" -- nm - TFox Apr 5, 13:50 2
        
        if they really had that and I didn't know i'm going to start laughing. -- nm - Diva Apr 5, 13:53 1
        
        i wouldn't know; i haven't been back to check. - TFox Apr 5, 13:55
        
        If they hadn't changed the game basics around, I'd be playing still quite a lot - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:42 2
        
        that plus the removal of comm free saturdays. I used to buy stocks in coded amounts, the last couple numbers would tell me which month to look at it - zeitgeist Apr 5, 13:46 1
        
        No codes needed for me. Buy max -- check to see if it's a loser or a winner. - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:48
        
        well they oranged it all up - quite an easy decision and I played for 10 years - Epiphany Apr 5, 13:41 11
        
        It was definitely the Orangening for me -- nm - con_carne Apr 5, 14:11
        
        i trickled off more than anything. but for years i cared *DEEPLY*. -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 13:42 9
        
        how many other things did we work on that hard for that long, and then just... drop? -- nm - TFox Apr 5, 13:44 8
        
        I guess I didn't work as hard as some of you. Just got bored. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 13:50
        
        nothing - I got nothing like that. I made peace with it though - I was always going to quit, they made me do it sooner than planned -- nm - Epiphany Apr 5, 13:48
        
        my photog career -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 5, 13:47
        
        it is pretty insane. and that is was just massively widespread. -- nm - Andie Apr 5, 13:45 3
        
        If they didn't change, I have little doubt I'd still be there. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:47 2
        
        yep. it would have been unlikely for me to completely leave behind something to which I'd given so much time/effort. -- nm - b. Apr 5, 14:12
        
        I really stopped playing full time by 2002 -- nm - amoxy Apr 5, 14:09
        
        SimSports for me. ... I played pretty religiously for 4 years there, and then, just didn't. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:45
      - Little bit, but I remember numbers to a degree that's scary in a lot of ways. - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:39 3
        
        no, that's what i mean. like i am sure i didn't play it because i would remember. but it's one stock out of hundreds? thousands? i played over a - Andie Apr 5, 13:41 2
        
        I'm a numbers geek so what it did was beyond the pale. Easy to remember. - Will Hunting Apr 5, 13:43
