    Uma thurman comedy open weekend take for UK £130...

    http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/movi...y-weekend.html

    So apparently 12 people in the whole country whent to see this movie. Thats incredible, even the worst comedies get at least, i dunno, people going to it in more than one screening

    Seriously, has anyone heard of any movie doing worse than this?

    Originally they posted the takes as £88 - I thought it was a typo and they meant £88m - but alas - it opened in ONE screen in the UK with little to no promotion - the whole thing was a clusterfuck and proof that word of mouth won't sell a film like that...!!!

    Good.

    Maybe they'll hold off on making these insipid, piss poor "comedies" for a while and concentrate on more intelligent fare.
