...fact, for the two days for which there's hard data, The Hangover led Up, $31.4 million to $30.7 million. Industry swamis are presumably banking on kids and their grandparents streaming to the Pixar movie on a summer Sunday, while the Warner puke-fest will have exhausted its core constituency.

Further, the resolutions adopted were, on the whole, both infeasible and unrealistic. Repressive regimes in Saudi Arabia and China (among other participants in the conference) have little incentive to actually implement the resolutions, and the UN has no way to actually enforce them.
