What I'm really worried about now though, is that if this movie completely bombs (and it looks like it may ) it might make studios very weary of doing anymore movies like this. They already don't have very high hopes for REAL anime (which is why they don't do wide releases for anime movies).

bigsleepj (post: 1225612) wrote:I "we make as much money as Wisconsin" is from a statistic I saw last year that said the yearly Gross National Product of South Africa is equal to that of Wisconsin, which I found... odd. I think I'll change it back to South Africa now, to avoid confusion.

Speed Racer stalled in its opening weekend behind returning superhero Iron Man, the Associated Press reported. Speed, from the Wachowski brothers, debuted in second place on the May 9 weekend, taking in only about $20.2 million against a budget estimated at $120 million.
The movie, based on the popular anime, seemed unlikely to recoup its production costs in its initial theatrical run.
Iron Man, meanwhile, retained the top slot at the box office in its second weekend of release, taking in $50.5 million and raising its domestic total so far to $177.1 million, the BoxOfficeMojo Web site reported.
Revenue for Iron Man slipped just 49 percent in its second week in theaters, a respectable showing considering its massive opening.
More potential summer blockbusters are on the horizon: The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian opens May 16, and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull debuts May 22.
It teaches how to make left turns really well.
Kiyone: Rim shot
Bad joke coming from a NASCAR fan.
