Yes, yes it does. If only it was released in wide on the date it was advertised at, now it'll be lucky to make five mil. Hopefully it'll get to number three. Probabaly not. I'm not always this much of a downer, I swear.

Agreed dahluzz. My wife is making me see Married. I think that it will top the box office. I just don't think that Final Season has anthing going for it. Elizabeth has zero going for it. Night is the only other one with any shot at #1. I would not be surprised if Married, Night, and Beth all earn about $8M and The Game Plan sits #1 again. My advice, go see 3:10. If you have seen it, see it again. I have seen it twice, hoping for the third this weekend, maybe.
