Dear Avatar,
After 7 weeks of being the #1 movie for the weekend box office, you are now #2 thanks to a little movie called Dear John.
Please take comfort in knowring that even though Titanic held that title for 10 more weeks than you, you are still the #1 movie revenue making worldwide and domestically!
Love,
John
PS The best news from this weekend’s box office is Mr. A$$hole aka Mel Gibson’s movie Edge of Darkness bombed big time. The movie played in 3.066 theaters and brought in just $7,005,000 which is $2,285 per theater according to Box Office Mojo. Hey Mel I guess you still have a few mea culpas to do before The Beaver comes out!!!
I know most people think David Letterman’s ad with his arch rival Jay Leno was the best one that aired during the Super Bowl, but my favorite was the Snickers one with Betty White and Abe Vigoda. I mostly liked it because we got to see that Abe Vigoda is Alive and I didn’t have to check out the website to confirm it!
What were you favorite ads and did I miss any?
BTW who cared more about the commercials than the game?
After the Super Bowl, CBS is debuting their latest reality show Undercover Boss. The show takes the bosses of large companies and puts them in the smallest jobs at the same company so that the big boss can see how the little man is keeping his company alive. In tonight’s episode the President of Waste Management is sent out to do some of the sh!ttiest jobs as his company like cleaning up porta potties and picking up loose papers. It was amazing to see the president of the company gets his hands dirty, really dirty and realizing how is little man is getting screwed. He actually learned how things needed to be changed and after he was done learning his lesson he actually makes changes. It wasn’t only doing the dirty work that made him change his mind, but his employees’ attitudes. Those relationships that he built on the job are something you have to see. So after the Super Bowl is over make sure to stay on CBS for a touchdown of a show! Plus who doesn’t want to see a boss clean up sh!t?
You have to appreciate a talk show host who is willing to make fun of himself when he does something stupid and that is exactly what Jimmy Kimmel did on his show. Jimmy was filmed by TMZ as he was going out to dinner, the only problem was he couldn’t find the door to get in. Someone actually had to open the door for him so he could join his friends for some grub. Now most talk show host would not have aired the video of them looking like the dumb a$$ of the day, but not Jimmy he not only aired it but he also compared himself to former-President Bush.
Now back to Jimmy and the door, it was pretty obvious where the door was to me.
