Zombies Rule!

Ok, so there's a delicious irony to the fact that the remake of Dawn of the Dead bumps The Passion of the Christ from the top spot in this weekend's box office. I've got to think that even Mel Gibson can appreciate that one!

And, since we're speaking of movies—and I haven't been to a movie in weeks, damnit!—it looks like I'd better rush out this week and catch Eternal Sunshine if I'm going to see it in the theatre, since it just barely made the #6 slot for the weekend. Sure, it's on half the screens that Dawn of the Dead opened on, but still… that kind of opening can't bode well for it's theatrical release longevity.

Thinking about Eternal Sunshine—talk about reinforcing bad behavior! Jim Carrey does wacky over-the-top comedy hi-jinks in Bruce Almighty… big hit! Jim Carrey does subtly whacked-out Charlie Kauffman script—one that might actually entail some, I don't know, ACTING!—surprise! Can't even break the top 5 for the weekend. Guess what message he's going to take from that one!
