Contagion had low tracking for the past several weeks, but went up this past week due to the mostly positive reviews and a last minute surge in the ad campaign. Though I do wonder if this opening on the weekend of the anniversary of 9/11 will have any effect on it. Warrior has great audience reaction and could begin a leggy run. Sexy Tom Hardy/Joel Edgerton legs. Given the surprise performance of The Debt last weekend, obviously there's a good market out there for adult-aimed films.


Shoulda been a gay movie.
