To be clear, the RoboCop remake made $2.8 million on it's opening day , which was a Wednesday , while The Lego Movie took in $2.1 million, it's sixth day of release. There are a couple of ways to look at this. One, the reboot beat out the No. 1 movie in American , which made almost $70 million in three days. If The Lego Movie, which has uber strong word of mouth and is loved by everyone I know who's seen it (child and adult alike) then RoboCop could do quite well this weekend. Thursday and Friday numbers will tell the tale.

UPDATE! Just a note, the episode was unable to land today as planned :( Will keep you posted on when you can hear my thoughts, and those of MuGumBo and Manifesto, on Frankenstein's Army! No, I'm not jumping ship and leaving The Basement. No way, no how. Shawn and I threatened that at one point, and quickly realized this is home. Good 'ole home. But I was invited by Lewis Cougill, AKA MuGumBo to join himself and Dave "Manifesto" Gibson for the third-season premiere episode of his Traumatic Cinematic podcast. The film he put on the chopping block? Frankenstein's Army. Now, I'd already shared my thoughts on Frankenstein's Army right here , but couldn't resist the opportunity to sit in on MuGumBo's show. He and I have shot the shit since he launched his hit podcast almost two years ago. He's the dude who created the #twitflix hashtag that I often tweet under when reviewing movies. The episode recorded last night and I had a blast rap...
