Damn, baby got smacked! Ah, not your fault fangirl. It was a photo finish like you said.
Budooza! Don’t think you’ll win next week either. Love you Fangirl
Susan, another great recap. Man your Dolphin Tale didn’t do well.
Gone Girl looked rough and I don’t think I could handle it. Did you see it? Was it full of gore?
Thanks Ryan B. and Danielle.
The final numbers showed Gone Girl squeaking past Annabelle by just $329K – close one for sure!
GG had one gory scene that’s it but a lot of sex. It was good, but not the mind blowing amazing flick I was expecting.
