"Now note PIRATES
is on 8500 screens that has to represent at least 2 onesheets
each. That's 19,000 posters right there. 50 years
from now that poster will be worth what?"
On
Fleabay which will be called SuperFleabay by then, the poster should
be worth a negative -$2.00 but at auction it should go for
$100.00.

.....and SUPERMAN had generally much better reviews
overall by a considerable margin. Now note PIRATES is on
8500 screens that has to represent at least 2 onesheets
each. That's 19,000 posters right there. 50
years from now that poster will be worth what?
By the way did anyone notice and
congratulate MOPO's own Rudy Franchi's Emmy Nomination for Best Reality
Show? His show up ended such programs as CHEERLEADER NATION, DANCING
WITH THE STARS, ROLLER GIRLS, COUNTDOWN TO LOCKDOWN, FILTHY RICH,
ULTIMATE COYOTE UGLY SEARCH, WIFE SWAP, and ANIMALS WHO EAT THEIR YOUNG.
Congratulations Rudy for this auspicious recognition. Who knows a new
collectible may be on the horizon for you!
Yo ho, yo ho. A pirate's life for… everyone.
Or so it seems after Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
plundered the record books with an estimated $132 million opening weekend,
swatting Spider-Man's long standing $114.8 million
milestone atop the all time chart.
Buena Vista's swarthy sequel marauded over 8,500 screens at
4,133 sites—the third widest debut ever—compared to Spider-Man's 7,500
screens at 3,615 sites, though Pirates' estimated 20 million admissions
out-paced Spidey by only a hair.
Pirates
pilfered a trove of records, but the key ones, in addition to opening weekend,
were biggest single and opening day and fastest to $100 million. On Friday,
Dead Man's Chest raked in $55.5 million (including $9 million's worth
of 2,100 midnight showings), eclipsing Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith's
$50 million and grossing more in one day than its predecessor, The Curse of
the Black Pearl, did in its entire opening weekend. Dead Man's
Chest also became the first picture to cross the century mark in two days
flat.
