Narnia underperforms.......$8 Million on Friday

Story by:  Léon Degrelle


Unfortunately, as early as this may be from the final Box Office total, 8 million dollars for something like this, can be construed as a failure.....a BOMB!!!  20th Century Fox, has always depended on the word of mouth method, more-so than the excessive propaganda and expositions of other companies.  But it seems that people, figured that with the failure of Prince Caspian, that this movie is just added filler and even less of a movie than Caspian was.  Nothing can be further from the truth.  Voyage of the Dawn Treader, was action packed, and actually considered better than Caspian was, even with all that huge budget, that Disney shelled out.  But the unfortunate effect, is that Sheeple (sheep and people mixed together)go with the flow of what's supposed to be cool and popular, and not take their children and themselves, over to see a well made movie.  Only of a few well made movies this year.  Just because something is not as advertised like others, doesn't make it much less, in fact, it's those little surprised that get you, and get you back for more.  I will give a few examples of movies that looked like bombs, but were major hits:  Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, Planet of the Apes....to name a few.  After dismal opening weeks, their later weeks, proved they were winners.
