Well, those naysayers in Hollywood have failed again, the movie opened to be number one this weekend.

Not as big as his last film but alot more then the haters in Hollywood predicted it could possibly do, they thought after all what is the chance that a movie with a bunch of no names starring, about an obscure civilization dubbed from a spoken obscure language could not make any money at all, especially after they marketed it with Mel Gibson's name (after all how could it? this time we really stuck it to him after the alledged anti-semitic statements)?

Again, people proved that the media hype does not decree what and what we won't watch.
