Only 6 million? I've seen commercials of that everywhere. I guess MMA isn't a draw....

I read that Lance Storm blog earlier today, actually. It's very outdated, now, but what he wrote could easily apply to Vickie Guerrero.

I went to the screening of the Warrior. It is actually a really good movie. Nick Nolte puts on a great performance.

Hey, that's 600000 times better than the average lemonade stand. Just have to look at success from a different angle.

Wrestling movies do better than mma? No, not at all.

these kind of movies never do as good as those plot less CGI fests like transformers...
american movie goers are stupid! they always pump tons of money in to average and crap films and neglect the good ones...
hell the wrestler which was a amazing film and was well recieved, even nominated for oscars only made 26 million in the u.s.a.
youd think wrestling fans would produce more than that, hell even the nominations should have brought more non fans too...
anyway WARRIOR has recieved nothing but great reviews from everyone... and guess what?
in the end how much money a film makes does not reflect the quality of the film..
there are plenty of great films that dont do well in theaters...

That's as wide of a release as any small, low budget movie gets these days. It ain't gettin' any bigger. Likewise, any movie that made so much in a weekend of limited release would be mainstream news.

Warrior's done better than any of WWE's movies.

Yeah, not really helping your argument there pal!!

As if anyone's going to see 'Warrior' to see Kurt Angle. If you want to see Angle in action for 10 minutes go see a TNA PPV main event.

A shitty movie is a shitty movie, regardless of the subject matter.
