I came across a movie site which is great in originality and those of you love to go to movies in arthouse theatres,etc. this is the one to see right away and keep posted.

So Mcmahon makes crap, but he also still makes money.

The only enjoyable thing about Harlin's movies is the search for the flag. Plastered up on a chain link fence in Driven...awesome.

They are really rated 5.2 (using number of votes for each movie), they actually made $48.7 million worldwide threatrical (there is a world outside of the US, it should count), and a considerable $69.3 million in DVD sales!! (Funny how the DVD sales weren't mentioned.) Lionsgate didn't dump WWE Films, WWE Films is a production company that shops around a movie for mainstream release. Actually Lionsgate was behind the two 'best' of the three (going by imdb vote ranking). They did the 1st and 3rd of your list of WWE Films. In closing, it's already been announced that with the success of DVD sales and the fraction (1/4 to 1/5) of the cost to release it that way, WWE Films is going Direct to DVD in the future.
