...you're being a poo-head. Jersey Girl will be a more friendly rating, so people will not be put off by swearing or blasphemy. Jennifer Lopez is the most popular person amongst everyone in the world right now (except annoying people on web-boards who spell their name in a wacky alternative way) and Affleck's up there on the popularity list as well. Fan boys and gals like Kevin Smith so that's another social group who'll go see the flick, no matter what the reviews are like. Lastly, the film's gonna be set in the 80s, the coolest decade in the world, so it'll do fine. So, just to reiterate - you = poo=head.
: Dogma did have Ben and Matt..plus, Chris Rock and Linda Fiorentino and it didn't quite do the numbers that some hoped it would...
: and JASBSB had everyone in hollywood in it and still only broke $30.

: : ...with Kevin Smith directing, so I think it might just break even. Duh.

: : : How well does anyone think Jersey Girl will do at the box office?
: : : Let's just assume that it's a good movie, will the star power finally bring in the big numbers that Dogma & JASBSB only sort of did?
: : : just curious
