    *** Official "2003 Box Office Prediction and Discussion" Thread

    :) The matrix is a movie you have to see a COUPLE of times to appreicate it. This,in my estimation, will supass X-Men and become the #1 movie of the summer with the HULK a close second.

    THE SWIMMER coming to DVD in April?!

    Great movie, great deal(20bucks) but clearly the BEST the movie has ever looked, owned the LD and this is heads and tails above that. This is a very gutsy movie and could not probably be produced for a big studio today....the issue of failure on a montary level is stunning...:emoji_thumbsup:
