That usually will. Anything my sister likes, I am obligated to dislike. But my sister is 13 and likes Linkin Park, so I can hate it anyways.

Hee. Well, my sister's 18 and a crazy lesbian.

With a dyspeptic attitude to match. Ask Riss or Merf. They know. They? Know.

She's a scrappy little thing.

I know, I'm anal.

*hehehe* It's cool though.
I wonder where the figures I saw came from. They were supposedly a week-by-week tally of what each of those pictures took in during their theatrical runs. At the ends of their theatrical runs, none of them had made more than $28 million in the theatres, according to what I was looking at.
VERY big discrepancy!

I guess 'Phantom's' numbers are pretty bad then. Bummer.

Ah well... it's not like it'll ruin the chances for a sequel or something!

And as long as I can have that puppy in my greedy little hands to watch whenever I want, I'll be a happy camper.

Ok, after that nasty coughing jag (my chest HURTS like crazy now

), I better hightail it offline, take some Nyquil (the monkey on my back

), and slip into bed.

Night all!
