So any debate as to whether the Olympics hurt the movies these past few weeks? Or were they just bad movies?

[Ron Burgundy]

that is the last time i let a trailer/preview sway me into picking a film, last one before that was Oblivion. Pete's drake better hold well, or thats it- Ron B will storm...something...somewhere?!

Impressed with Sausage Party, should've seen that coming when Suicide Squads reviews were sucky. As always, captain hindsight knows best.

Hell or High water looks golden, im pissed surfer took that one in draft

And thanks for the article six, i think id like to do a write up soon again aswell.

[Ron Burgundy]

and no debate walleye, i dont think the vast majority of americans care about the olympics, though someone here can tell me im wrong

I'm pretty sure its just a casual watching thing. Keep it on in the back ground, maybe make sure you have it on for an event you care about but its nothing to move your life around for. I'm not sure the reason but my theater this weekend was actually busier for just about everything than we were last weekend. So ya I don't think people care all that much.

I know the exciting part of the summer is over, and we're a long way till we get to Oscar-bait stuff, but we still need columns....
