It’s JANUARY. A movie making 13 million in a weekend usually takes the box office anyways.

The point is, where all of these die hard fans who were gushing about how revolutionary and great Cloverfield was.

Looks like someone flashed a rolled up piece of shiny aluminum over yonder and, just like that, their attention is gone. LOL

I don’t know how you can call $13.1 million dollars tanking. Especially in January. Especially for a $25 million dollar movie. Especially in it’s second week. Especially with quite a bit of competition.

I knew Cloverfield was going to go flaccid after it’s first week.

I saw all these movies except `27 dresses` and I dont care for
that typical Hollywood crap.
-Meet the Spartans is a new Epic Movie and that means new crap .
-Rambo is so-so action flick with ancient Stallone.
-Cloverfield is no.1 on my list - original, exciting and entertaining.

@Bryan : Then go see ‘27 dresses’ or ‘How she movie’ if you want to walk out with a warm fuzzy satisfied feeling with tons of resolution. Every damn movie in hollywood ends basically in the same general sense. Cloverfield makers tried to something different and I really appreciate that.

Still haven’t seen Cloverfield…Still don’t really care to. Meet the Spartans is just another movie parody piece of crap…I hate those types of movies…I don’t know why people would waste their money on them. As for Rambo…Don’t care about it.

I wouldn’t waste my bandwidth downloading Meet the Spartans or watch that piece of monkey shit for free

Not surprised.

I saw Cloverfield on Monday, and I wasn’t too impressed. Novel idea, but it doesn’t make you leave the theater with a satisfied feeling. You’re just as lost as when you walked it, so you don’t get that sense of resolution that most people desire.

Maybe the sequel will be filmed from a normal perspective and fill in the details.

Meet the Spartans is the type of film I download when the DVDRip is available and I watch on my second monitor while working from my home office. A distraction and something light and airy to keep me company during a slow “refactoring” day.

I expected Cloverfield to fall off big time this week. Seemed hyped by the internet and once those people saw it then it would drop off. Its not the type of film my 50 year old parents would be interested in at all.

meet the spartans is a waste of film and time if anyone is dum enough to even go see it, it looks like a pile of steeming shit to me

I seriously would like to know who actually wants to see Meet The Spartans…

How fucking pathetic, when a creative well done movie is overshadowed by some horrid shit such as Meet The Spartans.

Shows how low our society is getting when we’re attracted to crapfests like this.

Sorry I know I sound biased since I really enjoyed Cloverfield (God forbid I like something that’s not hand fed to me), but I can’t stand to see something like this win over it, I mean..even over RAMBO.

Don’t even get me started on that.
