Burning Q's: Why All the Midweek Movie Releases?

What's with movies chess opening up on Wednesdays? First Pineapple Express and now Tropic Thunder as well.
�Lee


The release escort for Tropic Thunder in reality was changed before that of Pineapple Express.


According to Chad Hartigan of Exhibitor Relations, picture ticket gross revenue gradually sluggish down as August progresses. So the Thunder citizenry decided to open a few years earlier, to sell as many tickets as possible among the coveted teen-male crowd earlier they all started bearing back to school.


Then the Pineapple people found out what the Thunder people were planning. Like Thunder, Pineapple is aimed at the teen-male audience. But now it would ingest only basketball team days in theaters ahead Thunder moved in. So the Pineapple people, overly, moved back their particular date, Hartigan speculates, so that it could a few more years to itself.

You never answer my questions! What's up with Carrie-Anne Moss these days? Will she be Trinity from The Matrix for the take a breather of her life?
