    Very interesting. I thought that Aniston thing would do a little better but if it only earns around the $7M mark that means her movies are getting fewer and fewer people bothering to pay to see her. No wonder she is planning to “take a break”!!! She’s not being offered anything.

    “Act of Valor” sounds interesting and there are plenty of men who want to pretend to be Navy SEALs. And, good for Tyler Perry. Another hit for him in spite of the critics. All in all, a very interesting weekend. I don’t plan to see anything but I’ll be sure to put several on my Netflix list.
