Klosterman's The Nineties observation

I'm actually doing the audiobook version, which maybe pegs me as a glutton for punishment, signing up for 13 hours of his midwestern nasal twang. But it's amusing in the chapter about box office to hear him stumble over Paul Dergarabedian's name (uh.. take 2?), but also to notice a bit of a not-quite-insider's miss. He talks about The Matrix breaking the box office calendar, which it kind of did, but he missed that it was actually Rush Hour, in Sept 98, that really showed you could open stuff anywhere.
