...Filipino film based on his life, Pacquiao: The Movie, was released in 2006, and did very poorly at the box office. Pacquiao himself is a popular presence on Philippines television and recently signed up with the GMA broadcast network to appear in the boxing-themed drama series Totoy Bato. Pacquiao is also rumored to be appearing alongside Sylvester Stallone on the big screen in a debut U.S. movie sometime in the future; the two met last January in Los Angeles...
John told me of his indiscretion on Dec. 30, 2006, after returning from a tour to announce that he was running for President. Before the announcement tour he had asked my brother to come with him to film it, since Jay taught film at the graduate film school at NYU, but when Jay found out another videographer was coming whether he came or not, Jay said no.

...that made just $1.1 million and didn't crack the top 10. That could be because another 3D science-fantasy cartoon, Monsters vs Aliens, was still raking in the bucks; it finished a sturdy fifth. DreamWorks' 3D comedy has been in release two weeks longer than any other film in the top 10, lost more theaters this weekend, yet suffered the lowest drop in attendance of all the holdovers.

Though fewer studio films were released in Jan.-Apr. 2009, the North American box-office numbers rose 16%, and attendance 14%. As Gitesh Pandya notes on boxofficeguru.com, "the number of $20M+ openers rose from 11 last year to 18 this year while the amount of films crossing the $100M mark skyrocketed from just one in 2008 to six in the current year." Pandya points out that the summer biggies should benefit from the success of off-season fare, since moviegoers get bombarded...
...film's singular stupidity is that it presents as reprehensible all those traits - smooth talk, adventurous spirit and short romantic attention span - that McConaughey's core audience loves him for. They want him to play what he seems to be: a Doctor McDreamy who makes house calls, lays gentle, knowing hands on the patient, then moves on to his next erotic appointment. Sure, his fans can imagine for a second that he will settle down with them as he does at the end of his movies with Lopez or Hudson or Parker or Garner. But he'll have to leave...
