I just noticed that it's playing at ONE of my local theaters, but there's only 2 showings and they're pretty late at night.
It's playing at one theater around here. I might have to amuse/torture myself this weekend, provided I can get in for free. There's no way I'm paying to see this assbomb.
BTW, here's this past weekend's box office results:
'D.O.A.' Is D.O.A.
The Weinstein Co.'s D.O.A.: Dead or Alive lived up to the other meaning of its initials as it opened in 505 theaters with just $260,713 -- or $516 per theater. Not only did it not make the top ten, it ended up in 17th place behind a Hindi film, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, which opened in only 83 theaters. The movie was not shown in advance to critics. Those who dutifully decided to stand in line with everyone else after it opened said that the movie, based on the video game, was mostly soft porn, or as writer Ken Fox put it in TV Guide: "The action ... is targeted squarely at adolescent boys too young to rent porn and gamers too lazy to yank their own joy sticks."

I wanna sig that quote that Dole posted.
I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
I went yesterday and we were the only people in the theater. And our waitress said that we were the first people to see it all day (2nd to last showing).
I still think it was on par with the first Mortal Kombat. It's not like the games took the storyline anymore seriously.

They don't show it around here anymore and it hasn't even been a full week yet.
If I'm lucky enough to spot it playing at the budget theater, then I'll watch it.

I'm just mad because this was supposed to be on DVD by now, and this terrible decision to release it in theaters means I've had to wait that much longer to have a drunken night involving this abortion. I watched the first half off Youtube from when it was posted earlier and thought it was hilariously bad, but the amount of time it's taking them to put it where it belongs (direct-to-video) is killing my buzz.

The place kicks much ass.

Movie theater near us is pretty much grill/bar/movie place. Most of the stuff show there are pg/pg13 stuff. Quite rarely do they get R stuff, like i saw Training Day there, which surprised the fuck out of me
This reminds me to dl this already. Been meaning too, but kept forgetting.
I just checked again- too late! It's gone already.Originally Posted by Dolemite yesterday
