Is the whisk mightier than the sword? Julia & Julie

[RobRoy]

[INDENT]If you just look at the box office take, "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" stomped all over "Julie & Julia" last weekend.

"Joe" earned $54.7 million in the United States - the fourth-biggest debut ever in August. The second-place "J&J" pulled in $20 million.

No contest, right?

And yet "Julie & Julia" is holding its own. In fact, I'd say that things are working out just as they should.[/INDENT]

Yep, especially since J+J probably made back its entire budget in its first weekend, while G. Joe is unlikely to do so until all the overseas totals and so forth are factored in. I fear that it may end up like Watchmen, and be the hottest movie in the nation for a week.... but school starts back.
