STIS: For those who have seen Amy, I take it it's pretty good even if you are really unfamiliar with her music (Rehab and that's it)? -- nm - con_carne Jul 17, 08:30 5

My comics have just been piling up for about the last 6 months, and last night I caught up on Walking Dead and Batman. Wow. - emoticripple Jul 17, 08:11
Thursday Box Office: Ant-Man - $6.4 M, Trainwreck - $1.8 M -- nm - Spawn Jul 17, 08:11 14
- i am staying long on both. -- nm - Andie Jul 17, 09:18

    - I staying long both til I see new numbers tomorrow morning. -- nm - Shaun Jul 17, 08:26
  - I'd stay where you are on both. -- nm - Inigo Jul 17, 08:24 5
    - I'd flip Ant-Man - it's priced for a $60M opening, and I doubt it could open much lower. -- nm - Roger More Jul 17, 08:31 3
      - It's iffy. Ant-Man is 57% of the 11.2 million Guardians of the Galaxy made in previews. - Inigo Jul 17, 08:39 2
        
        Only 2 movies have had a $6M+ preview and opened lower than 60M. One was The Fault In Our Stars (mega-frontloaded), the other was the 3rd Hobbit movie - Roger More Jul 17, 09:04 1

For those who have seen Ant-Man, is it appropriate for kids? - IrishStephen Jul 17, 07:54 1
