DVD BUYING: SHARE WEIRD STORIES, NUMBER YOU BOUGHT and FOR WHOM?
silkncense:
Since I am off Mondays, I plotted to use my "breaks" to drive about 30 minutes rt to Best Buy @ 10 am when they open.
I get to work, and my boss has scheduled 2 meetings for me; 9:30am & 10:00am!!! I go to her office & said, politiely, "You have messed up my morning." I explained why, she agreed to reschedule the meetings to 11:00 - 12:00 AND asked me to buy her a copy of Brokeback (she never went to the theater)! Then I am talking to two married male co-workers who also did not see it in the theater AND both had it on rental order & were hoping it would be there today. (One Blockbuster & one Netflix).
So, I was at Best Buy @ 10am (actually 9:56am), bought three movies & got three of the books! YAY! One for me; one for my boss & one for my son (who rated it 5 out of 5 on Netflix - I took him for his birthday). Price was $16.99 + tax.

It's close, like 82,850,000.00 or something. But it's only pulling in like 25,000 a day or less.

I think they keep tallying the gross to include DVD sales. When EW does their weekly video charts, it looks like that. I'm surprised EW didn't review it last week, they usually do that before the DVD comes out.

Hi Juan!
Thanks. BBM is still in theaters though and still making money, but Focus has stopped posting daily figures. They'll post weekly or bi weekly figures which BoxOfficeMojo will put up.

Thursday is the last day it's gonna be here in theatres then it's gone for good..unless they re-release it.
montferrat:
Is that for your area Brandon, or that's it period here in North America?
