Grindhouse “Bombs” at Box Office

Digg: “The hard “R”-rated pic should take in just $13.5 million this weekend — nowhere near even the lowest $20 mil opening predicted (or the $25 mil debut anticipated after midnight sneaks were added in major cities). It was good enough for 4th place among the Top 10 movies this weekend.”

My comment: This is really surprising. Every other Tarantino movie has been really successful. From the looks of the trailers, this movie (or double feature) looks really unique and interesting, but I think most people don’t like 3 hour movies, especially in the theater (unless it’s Lord of the Rings). Plus it looks really weird and not really like a movie from the advertisements. I thought it was weird that they are releasing the two movies on separate discs. That means you have to pay twice as much to watch them. Also I read that Death Proof is a shortened version of the actual thing, so they are releasing it in it’s entirety on DVD, I’m guessing an unrated version. I’m not sure about Planet Terror, though.
