I was reading an Imdb Kevin Smith quote from below on the board, saying that he feels Jersey Girl will not be a number one film now because of the Jen and Ben relationship and the whole Gigli fiasco. I agree that this could be a possibility, but is it not also possible that the whole Bennifer thing may have a public reaction adverse to what Kev thinks?
What i'm trying to say is - it could conceivably happen that people who maybe would not have originally gone to see the movie, will now go just out of a morbid curiousity to see what the couple were like together before the split (albeit in a movie)? We all know how media and celebrity driven a lot of people's minds are. I think it could happen.
I suppose it could go either way, and we won't really know until the movie opens, but all i can say is - have faith Mr Smith, i personally am of the opinion that you'll knock another one out of the park!!
