I know last year The Aviator made 105,000,000USD B.O.(domestic) and 35,000,000USD in DVD sales. Substantially more DVD sales then MIllion Dollar Baby. Those Leo D fans you know.

The folks at Focus must be smiling. I'm sure they will easily surpass USD 35,000,000 in local DVD sales.

take that Kong and Naria or whatever they call it. >:D

Wow I am probably responsible for at least some of that 10 mil, what with me seeing it 5 times and convincing all of my friends and family to see it more than once. I feel proud! ;D

Post by: RingerFanatic on April 06, 2006, 07:30:52 pm: and to think that $10million of that might end up in Randy Quaid's bank account! LOL
