At Pinny they have the over at 12.5 million. It has to, has to go over this. Everyone I know and they know wants to see this. Yes it is not on as many screens as it could be but remember it is 82 minutes long so it can fit more showings in. Max the over boys and girls. I'll take a stand.

I'm thinking word of mouth gets it over, but I don't know if I'd make the bet.

Fair point, it may have trouble with the limited amount of screenings. Scaling back my wager a tad, but I still think the number is a little low.

Yeah I got it.

Kev, I had a harness trainer say to my face a ton of races are fixed. He also explained to me how he would hop horses up and get around the drug tests even right before a race. That was it for me. Never again. He went to a pool I worked at in College and was a member there.

and his excuse in the UN was????????

randallscott35 10-30-2006 08:24 PM

Much too close to the pace that day, Frankel has since said it was his mistake. Where was EC in the Million?...Look if you want to go off their last race, there can be no question that Caciques was more impressive. His final 1/8 was out of this world. You are up against it.

Added to another 100 theaters. #1 movie on Yahoo movie trailers. Sell outs all over the place. Feeling better about it now.

Heard a discussion about this movie on the radio yesterday. Some film critics that had seen it were throwing around phrases like "revolutionary comedy" and "something you'll never forget". They were calling it a groundbreaking comedy comparing it to Airplane or some of the original Mel Brooks movies.

They were just raving about it in a way that you don't normally see.
Don't think I'll be able to wait and see this one on cable like I normally do. Might have to break down and go to the theatre for a change.

Ending estimate is at 27 million for the weekend. That would be more than double what people thought. These things are sometimes better opportunities than any race anywhere.
