So sorry Amelia

There is a new movie out called Amelia. It is about Amelia Earhart. I have been looking forward to see it. But the movie is a bomb. The first weekend it came in 11th place is movie rankings. It took in maybe 7 million dollars. That is not good for a opening weekend. I really like Hillary Swank and Richard Gere. So sorry.

Well, you should go see it anyway. Who knows, maybe YOU will like it. We never listen to the critics when it comes to going to a movie. If we think we'll enjoy it, we'll go see it.

I agree - I'd go and see it anyway. I've put off seeing some movies that were panned by the critics and then, when we saw them on TV, we've been really pleasantly surprised by them.

Well I don't trust the critics--but the public sure is staying away from the movie.

We want to see it too. I think the scenery will do better on a big screen than waiting for the DVD.

I really like Hilary Swank and the director Mira Nair...but the critics say while it looks fabulous, it's really dull. I definitely think it will be a rental for me.

It's no wonder movie-goers stayed away-I think I've seen all of 1 trailer for this movie. Looks like the studio knew it was a dud, and pulled the promotional plug! BTW Scott, I absolutely LOVED Whip It, the Drew Barrymore movie!

I think your right. Amelia is a dud. That is a shame but hey life goes on.

I love Drew Barrymore though(And some others in the movie)so have got to see Whip It. Now that looks entertaining.
