Weekend Preview: Couples Retreat? Couples, Retreat!

Friday, October 9, 2009


My computer just got fixed!  Blogging can now resume as regularly scheduled.  First on the docket?  A Weekend Preview video of course!  There's only one new release this weekend, and that's Universal's Couples Retreat, and it should do pretty well at the box office.  Considering its only competition is a an animated kids movie (Cloudy) and a zombie flick (Zombieland), I'm thinking Couples Retreat can find a pretty solid $23 million weekend.  Go ahead and watch the video, and then click inside to see my full box office predictions.

By the way, that good article about Paranormal Activity I was talking about is here.

Zombieland was a stellar movie... Don't see Couples Retreat before you see Zombieland, I can hardly imagine someone not enjoying that movie. It's done fairly well at the box office too, so don't let it be beat by what seems to be a hardly passable romantic comedy.
