Just throwing this out there: why isn't Warner doing a quadruple feature with The Firm? They could do a 5-film pack with The Rainmaker, if they really wanted to.

I have the Pelican Brief, but would get this if it had the Firm instead of the Client.

Rainmaker is Paramount they should have included Runaway Jury.
And Warner is currently distributing some of Paramount's library, which is why I also suggested The Firm. Runaway Jury is Fox.

btw, why aren't their Grisham movies anymore? I remember most doing very well.
Because studio accountants - previously known as studio bosses - only want to cater to the under twenty, attention deficient demographic. Which means any film with what we would call a "plot" is cast aside for more idiotic fare that has explosions every twenty seconds.

The Pelican Brief (1993): $195.2 million
The Client (1994): $117.6 million
The Chamber (1996, includes int'l): $22.5 million
A Time to Kill (1996): $152.2 million
The Rainmaker (1997, no int'l available): $45.9 million
The Runaway Jury (2003): $80.1 million

Per Box Office Mojo and worldwide grosses (when available). While Roger has his own ideas, I think the pattern is fairly clear. Runaway Jury, for instance, had a production budget of $60 million. Assume half of that for marketing and the movie did not break even in its original theatrical run. It never hit #1 in it's 19 weeks in the theater.
