- oh wow....that would be terrible to find out. -- nm - Remlik Nov 23, 13:56 1
  - 30 years too late. - JaxSean Nov 23, 14:04
- I'm amazed he took up correspondence -- nm - Roger More Nov 23, 13:50
- This is like Liv Tyler being surprised about her real dad. Dude had to see it coming. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 13:50 15
  - i don't know, it's not like you expect that. -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 23, 13:51 14
    - Look at his pic though. People had to comment to him that he looked like Manson. - Inigo Nov 23, 13:52 4
      - I don't see his photo at all. -- nm - Loyola Nov 23, 13:58 3
        
        there's a link in the story. -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 13:59 2
        
        Oh right. I'm blind. -- nm - Loyola Nov 23, 14:02 1
        
        Yeah he's a killer. -- nm - Loyola Nov 23, 14:02
    - I mean, look at him. It could have been Nathan Lane. -- nm - Max Nov 23, 13:52 8
      - Is that better, or worse? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 23, 13:53 3
        
        more shocking, for sure. -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 13:54 2
        
        "My dad was in THE BIRDCAGE?!?!?" -- nm - Beryllium Nov 23, 13:54 1
        
        "he touched a woman???" -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 13:55
      - but really, i know people who look a LOT like someone famous, you don't really think 'i wonder if that's their real dad.' -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 23, 13:52 3
        
        Were they adopted though? I imagine adopted kids would wonder if about their real parents way more than other kids. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 13:59 1
        
        probably, but I don't think my brain would go there. -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 14:02
        
        seriously. I have a friend who looks like Adolf Hitler. we made him change his haircut. -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 13:54
- that ... sucks. -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 13:49
- His excitement over his longtime Harry Potter lightning bolt birthmark were dashed when... -- nm - Max Nov 23, 13:48
- "You look just like him." -- nm - David Nov 23, 13:48 5
  - did you look at the photo? he's the spitting image. -- nm - loosilu Nov 23, 13:52 4
    - I'm not seeing a photo of him, just of Manson. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 23, 13:57 3
      - Jeez, if only there was a link clearly marked "See a photo of Roberts here" it sure would help... - Cuzzin Todd Nov 23, 13:58
      - there's a link. nm but: -- (link) - b. Nov 23, 13:58
      - There's a link in a line of the article to see a picture of the guy. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 23, 13:58
- i somehow knew that was going to be the answer -- nm - Elf Andie Nov 23, 13:47 2
  - I thought it was going to be Hitler. -- nm - Diva Nov 23, 14:10 1
    - It was but then he went back in time to kill Hitler to change it. -- nm - David Nov 23, 14:11
$142,839,137 for New Moon. -- nm - David Nov 23, 13:45 20
- [deleted] 1
  - I saved the dumbest thing to say all year for the very end. -- nm - Max Nov 23, 14:31
- Insane. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 13:45 17
  - Did you see the demo splits? 80/20 F/M with 50/50 over/under 21. -- nm - David Nov 23, 13:47 16
    - I wonder what the splits were for Twilight. Was it worse than 80/20? My guess is yes. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 13:49 11
      - I've got 75/25 and 70/30 under 21 from the same source if you want apples to apples. -- nm - David Nov 23, 13:55 7
        
        So, more older people but less dudes? That's confusing. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 13:58 6
        
        Think Sex in the City. -- nm - Reagen Nov 23, 13:59
        
        I don't think so. It makes sense that the growing of the brand was comprised mainly of women over 21. We'd been saying as much here. -- nm - David Nov 23, 13:58 4
        
        That makes more sense. More than one way to get there, I guess. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 14:02 3
        
        The scary thought that I mentioned on Twitter yesterday is that it's about $113M of box office just from the women. - David Nov 23, 14:05 2
        
        Good news for us is that these are apparently all the women who need men to tell them what to do. -- nm - Reagen Nov 23, 14:11 1
        
        And since they seem to like Robert Pattinson, there's unquestioned hope for us ugly guys. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 23, 14:15
      - from a random column last year: - b. Nov 23, 13:53 1
        
        Thanks, b. Makes sense. You'd have to expand your demographics to get numbers this high. -- nm - Inigo Nov 23, 13:54
      - I bet easily yes. -- nm - Qale Nov 23, 13:52
    - Stupid David's gut. Why do you have to be right? Huh? Wasn't my 110m enough for you? -- nm - Qale Nov 23, 13:48 3
      - Hey, I was quite a bit low at $125 million. -- nm - David Nov 23, 13:48 2
        
        I always wonder who wins Kilbo's game on the day the #'s come out and then I forget to check it! -- nm - Epiphany Nov 23, 13:53 1
        
        I need to make a reminder pop up on fridays and mondays, I think -- nm - Beryllium Nov 23, 13:53
Good Time Charlies is coming down in Regina ? - 6 Nov 23, 13:43
mmm...gloop... -- nm - znufrii Nov 23, 13:42
