http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6440871.stm War epic 300 claims movie record Epic war movie 300 has laid claim to a North American box office record with opening weekend takings of $70m (£36m). The story of the 300 Spartan soldiers who battled a large Persian army will be the most successful March release ever if early figures are confirmed. Biker flick Wild Hogs starring John Travolta and Tim Allen moved down to second, taking $28m (£14.4m). Youth fantasy Bridge to Terabithia was third with Zodiac and Ghost Rider joint fourth, both making $6.8m (£3.5m). If 300's estimated takings are confirmed, it would break the March record set by Ice Age: The Meltdown, which took $68m (£35m) in its first weekend last year.

Ghost Rider ($6.8m) Source: Media by Numbers More people went to see 300 at the weekend than the rest of the top 10 combined. 300 has grabbed attention not just for its graphic violence but also its extensive use of computer generated effects and backgrounds. Eddie Murphy's larger-than-life comedy Norbit came in sixth with $4.3m ($2.2m), followed by the Jim Carrey thriller The Number 23, with $4.2m (£2.1m). Music and Lyrics, a romantic comedy with Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore, took eighth spot, while spy thriller Breach, based on real-life FBI spy Robert Hanson, was ninth. Slavery drama Amazing Grace, starring Ioan Gruffudd, was at 10.

Its great that we can cherry-pick which conspiracy theorys that we give creedance to, so we can still ridicule others with less popular theorys.

Tyne-Talk Say no more !

Number 1 all over, performed by myself for fuck all.

Oops.

thats outrageous.

"got the painters in"

If you read the reviews of 300 at imdb.com it either gets rave reviews or a total slating, there just seems to be no middle-ground at all. Personally, I'll watch it and make up my own mind.

Good effort Fish, whats your team and your tactics ?

Wow, a shot as powerful 'our 'enry's 'ammer that floored Cassius Clay !

not even the hint of a smile Trying desperatly to look cool whilst holding a sudoku board infront of 30,000 trophy-hungry supporters tbh.

Jinxed us !

Our best bet would be to give Bramble a rolling week to week contract, he's been a far better player since he's been playing for his future, giving him this kind of contract would keep him on his toes.
