So the Notebook dropped this weekend to number 7 at the box office, but considering that it was against A Cinderstupid Story (GRRRR...HATE Hilary Duff) and I Robot, it stuck it out considerably well How much do you think it'll make when its all said and done? i'm hoping about 70 million...but at least 60.

To be honest i'm really happy that the movie made so far 53 million (I'm sure they will reach the 60million) they did pretty well considered the budget that was invested to make it(i believe around 30 million) so for sure they have already ranked in some profit and also for a love story to be released in the midst of blockbuster movies i think they did fairly well.

I was kind of expecting it already due to the upcoming releases. I think the movie has done well despite the lack or promo (no billboards, not much tv guestings, minimal commercial time etc) and this is Ryan & Rachel's first major lead role in a drama/romance...I'm glad that people still took notice of the movie amidst all the big budget films...look at The Terminal it's by Steven Spielberg, it has Tom Hanks & Catherine Zeta Jones in it and it's made 71.2 Mil and the movie cost 60 mil to make...so overall I think The Notebook is a success at the box office...hopefully more people will be able to catch the movie because take away the "business" that goes into it...the movie is just simply amazing! M still hoping though that it'll reach 70 mil so we'll get a great dvd

Ahh... I hate Hillary Duff, too. I hate Lindsey Lohan, too. But recently there is no Lohan's movie to push The Notebook out the spot. So, I'm hating Duff more! Chad Murray looked way too old for Hillary. The pairing is pathetic... the plot is pathetic. How the hell did it get a higher spot than The Notebook? Plsh... because today's society would rather waste their money on stupid retarded movies that have terrible acting...haha. and because they have really bad taste I honestly don't understand how people our age can like hilary duff...she's as dumb as a brick (but obviously she's got to be doing something right!). have you ever seen her being iterviewed? when asked to explain her movie, she'll say something like "like, i think its a really positive messages for girls, like, who are like, looking for a really sweet film. i think its like, nice and all, and it was like a lot of fun to make!" her acting and singing abilities are a totally different story...but wait, she DOESN'T have any...haha Sorry if i offended you hilary fans, i just really don't like her.

i dislike both of them to a certain extent, but i definitely hate Lindsay alot more. you can tell she jsut thinks shes some hottie when really shes all fake. ive even heard that she got breast implants as a present from her parents...that show what kinda people they all are.

Actually, she didn;t get breast implants. I think Hilary and Lindsey ca actually act good for their age. For some people, who are their age, they suck at acting, but those two do really well. And Lindsey never got implants. Some person made it up just to get money. She is prolly going through a growth spirt that may have caused some people to assume that she got implants.

i prefer lindsay to hilary...lindsay can actually act (she was pretty good in freaky friday, mean girls, and anyone remember the parent trap?!) hilary's just terrible...i mean, she doesn't even really act- every role she's played has been almost the exact same as the last, with a few minor differences.

Hilary Duff is so popular because she does what everyone wants her to do. She sings all the poppy music, acts in all the tween movies, and keeps that blonde innocent look going for her. Have you all seen the Ashlee Simpson show? They wanted her to be like Hilary and she said no because that's not who she is. Hilary follows the executives around like a puppy dog. disgusting. Lots of actors can't stand Hilary. Rachel McAdams is one. I think it's funny. ;D Lindsay Lohan gets on my nerves. She gives off the impression that she thinks she's this big, great star. She's wasting away her millions, and goes to nightclubs every night. Wouldn't that get boring after a while? I can see her getting sick of her current lifestyle in the very near future. Now about The Notebook in the top 5. I am so upset that there wasn't more promo to be done with this movie. How was AWTR, a Spark's based movie also, more popular than The Notebook? The Notebook is so much better in every way and deserves so much more attention. I said this before, but I really think if they had done some more promotion, The Notebook would have been a big summer movie. I thought it was going to be one of the big summer movies when I saw the trailer in April. I was surprised that it wasn't. It just angers me when stupid movies like I, Robot and A Cinderella Story are getting all the attention and quality films, such as The Notebook, are barely making the top 10.

It just angers me when stupid movies like I, Robot and A Cinderella Story are getting all the attention and quality films, such as The Notebook, are barely making the top 10. Exactly. I have expected that The Notebook would be the summer hit when I saw the preview. I just do not undestands how movies like Anchorman, Cinderella, etc. are getting the attention from many viewers. Those are pointless movies, and it's a pity that not everyone is interested and understand the true meaning behind The Notebook. I mean, they would prefer to watch A Cinderella Story-- a story in which is so common: animation, a Disney story casting Brandy, etc.-- over the Notebook, when it barely holds any interesting and/or captivating factors. As for Lindsey and Hillary, I don't understand them. They're doing Disney movies and kids rated movies (a majority of their films), which mean their target audience are children/kids. Why are they going to go on TRL and fight over a guy? There is no wrong in dating, but having a quarrel for a guy is completely irresponsible to their fans. Aside from that, Lindsey announced on television that she loved Hillary Duff. However, during an MTV show, when someone mistakened her as Hillary, she deliberately fussed at them with an exclaimation of "Don't call me that." A little fake, don't you think? Apologies in advance to any Lohan's and Duff's fans. I'm stating my opinions as to how I view the two gals. I just really hope that The Notebook will regain their fifth spot, and if possible, a higher position on that Top 5.

It just angers me when stupid movies like I, Robot and A Cinderella Story are getting all the attention and quality films, such as The Notebook, are barely making the top 10. how can any actor like hilary duff...or appreciate the "acting" she does? its so terrible i would be ashamed to call myself an actor...or say that i worked on a movie with hilary duff. it sickens me to think that for a cinderella story, hilary probably made more than rachel did. Hilary made freakin 2 MILLION dollars...rachel probably didn't get more than a million, and thats being generous. hilary's role wasn't even acting...rachel's was emotionally charged and done beautifully...*sigh* i thought that this was going to be some big huge, highly publicized epic love story like pearl harbour was (there was soooooooooooo many commercials for that movie, haha). i thought they'd be doing behind the scenes stuff on ET, Extra and Access Hollywood...but there was NOTHING. there was barely anything in magazines, trailers only on certain networks, and not even a New York (or Canadian, haha) premiere. Had it had more publicity, it would've generated a bigger audience. i know of people that have read the book and loved it, but didn't even know that it got turned into a movie! At least this one made more than A Walk To Remember. Although that debuted at number 3 at the box office, it only made $41,090,572 altogether, and the notebook's already up to 54 million
