‘Eagle Eye’ $10.5M Opening Day

The past 2 months have been a drag for the box office, but Eagle Eye has broken the bad streak by taking in $10.5M opening day, and going for $28.35M for the weekend. Not bad for a late September release. Can’t wait to see the final results.

    Paul Newman passed away yesterday, so I’m a kinda bummed out. RIP

    An interesting tid bit is that he grew up in Shaker Heights and was a graduate of Yale University’s School of drama. I heard that Shia wanted to have a career like his, and I hope so, too.

    Rest in peace to Paul Newman. He was such an amazing actor and he will be truly missed. :( I see the movie is doing well so far, I hope it will exceed the expectations of 28 million. Go Shia! :)

    That’s right it made over 10mil. I gladly handed over the $9.75 to see it. I would have paid $50.75! Look out ‘Dark Knight’, ‘Eagle Eye’ is coming!

    I am also bummed to hear about Paul Newman! He was a great person and philanthropist. Anyhow….I am excited that Eagle Eye has done so well, there are a lot of great movies that have come about recently that I would love to see, of course this is the one I am most looking forward to…I can’t wait to finally see it this weekend! I’m excited!!
