Ice Cube is in Semi-Pro?

Wanna know how Hollywood makes money? They make incredibly shitty movies for next to no money, and all you morons out there see them, just in case they are good. It happens everytime, UNTIL this weekend.

All the rage for the past, like, six months was how bad Semi-Pro looked. I have posted on Will Ferrell being the headliner of movies numerous times; I just can’t do it. Will Ferrell is a NASCAR driver, Will Ferrell is a figure skater, Will Ferrell is a basketball player. Please, I would rather hammer nails into my eyeballs.

This weekend, though, after one of the most intense marketing campaigns I have ever seen in my life, Ferrell’s flick only netted $15 million in the box office. Folks, this is pennies for a major movie. I don’t know the costs associated with the pre-production, production, and post-production, but I would be willing to bet it was about four times this amount (especially factoring in marketing).

Thank you, everyone. You finally stuck by your word. You said this movie would suck, and you didn’t give them your money. Maybe now Will Ferrell can stick to what he is good at, five minute Wedding Crashers-esque cameos. Pat yourself on your backs, for you have helped to make a difference in the world.
