‘Ocean’s 13′ Earns $13 Million

Ocean’s Thirteen rolled out an impressive $13.1 million, according to Friday estimates. The heist comedy should easily pick up the No. 1 slot this weekend.

In No. 2 was the Katherine Heigl-Seth Rogen comedy Knocked Up, which brought in $6.2 million during its second week in release.. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End sailed close behind with a cool $6 million.

The stars of Ocean’s Thirteen recently donated over $750,000 to poverty-fighting charity Oxfam. Co-stars Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Matt Damon also donated to Clooney’s Not on Our Watch charity, which helps the inhabitants of Western Sudan.

Clooney has said, “The people of Darfur urgently need the help of organizations like Oxfam.”

UPDATE: Ocean’s 13 pulled in a healthy $37 million at the box offices this weekend. POTC3 sailed away with $21 million with Knocked Up not far behind with $20 million.

Oscar talk @ 06/10/2007 at 1:35 pm

Way to early to say if angelina is going to get nominated. The movie is released next week, by the time december rolls in angelina’s performance will be forgotten. Every year is the same thing, last year after Cannes everyones was sure Penelope Cruz was a sure winner, then falls movies pushed her away and Hellen Mirrer clean everything.

Ocean’s 11 and 12 have been on everyday on TV this week. It’s getting annoying. I’m not going to watch Ocean’s 13 because its simply overrated. But I will watch AMH!! :)

Add my $10 to the weekend tally. I’m off to see Oceans 13. Brad 4-evah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I doubt that just for the simple reason that P.Cruz is a star but Angelina has constant buzz surrounding her that by the fall, she will still be in the spotlight in some regards…with bylines like “the actress that currently has oscar buzz around for her role in AMH”. She is one of the biggest stars in the world and it’s very likely that it will help her earn a well deserve nod for GG and oscar.

Critics don’t forget good performances…no matter what season.

Damn, I finally read the Esquire interview and that jackazz was mean, imo. It’s like he was searching high and low to find something bad about her and he didn’t seem very nice to me about her. Seems somebody likes ugly chain smoking bores!

Congratulations to Brad and the Oceans crew for a fun movie. I love seeing these guys on the big screen!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I would love for those who are in-the-know to post about why they think A Mighty Heart is being released in June. I realize it is a limited release, but making it compete with summer blockbusters just seems like strange timing. I remember feeling the same way about the release of The Good Shepherd during Christmas season when it had to compete with a lot of family fare. It seemed more like a history buff’s type of movie, more serious fare that would have done better with a fall release. Posters here at that time did come up with a lot of valid reasons for that time frame for its release and then it did more sense to me. Thanks to anyone who might make some observations. :)

‘Ocean’s Thirteen’ Banks $37.1 Million

Audiences anted up for the Warner Bros. caper “Ocean’s Thirteen,” the third of George Clooney and Brad Pitt’s casino-heist romps, which debuted as the top flick with $37.1 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.

source Yahoo, well it did really good, and that just the estimate and if you haven’t seen it it’s totally worth your money ;)

I saw it yesterday (Saturday) and it was packed.. we couldn’t find two seats together. It’s going to do great over the w/end. It’s a fun movie, not as great as the first one but still very, very enjoyable. Brad looks GREAT in it.

I don’t want to see another Oceans movie. 1 was enough for me.

Hi Susie - I’ll try again.

It must be so frustrating and frankly sad to be a hater -desperately wishing for movies to flop, dissecting numbers, analyzing statements, gestures, and actions, ever hopeful of some sign or symptom of a problem. I’d never heard about the campaign for VV to replace Brad in Oceans. WTF????

AMH is a critical success. O13 will be a commercial success. And this couple deserve it because THEY ARE TALENTED.

And guess what?? They will have flops in their long, illustrious careers and so what?? It won’t mean their relationship is in peril, or the public has rejected them. It will simply be that that particular movie has not resounded with the public. Period.

Brad and Angelina have ignited such a public interest because they both have something that cannot be fabricated: charisma. You either have it or you don’t and no amount of good looks or even talent can replace it.

i absolutely love this AH video! the part where brad pulls angelina away from AH, and the end with Matt & Don. I didn’t like 013 at all (plot wise) but I loved watching all of them together and its sad to see this end. they are all so good together and play off each other so well (i.e. don & matt here, matt & george and brad & don in cannes).

Ocean’s was number 1 at the box office, which ia great after all the competion that is at the theaters now Ocean’s still #1!!!

G.G.-S.A.G-OSCAR- crossing my finger.and my legz.

She's with me @ 06/10/2007 at 2:32 pm

I’d show up to watch them eat cornflakes for breakfast.

clini,more honey,more.

It’s way too early to be speaking about Oscars.

Oceans did fine. Keeps the Clooney and Pitt train moving so they can do more small movies that will make you think ,feel, laugh and sometimes will fail. Can’t wait to see what the next decade brings for these guys- acting and producing wise.

Okay so here are Angie’s competitors for Best Actress Oscar:

Marion Cotillard - La Vie En Rose
Cate Blanchett - The Golden Age

Who else?? BTW, This is a dumb question. But how many nominees can there be for Best Actress?

+++++++++++++++

No offense to this Marion whoever…but she won’t win Best Actress. The last actress to win Best Actress in a foreign language film was Sophia Loren in 1961 for “Two Women”. The Academy may nominate for a foreign language performance, as they did with Penelope Cruz this year…but they winner won’t be a foreign language role. You can make bank on it.

Ciao,I agree.

I saw O13 with my friends the other night and the theater was packed.Lots of couples & men.We almost had to sit apart so we waited 30 minutes for the next viewing.Im out tonight to see it again with my guy.

We saw O13 yesterday and thought it was cool. It’s on par with the previous two so Congrats to the cast and all involved with it.

As for AMH, word is the reason they wanted to release it on June 22nd is because that is also International Faith Day (I believe). If they were just interested in awards they would have released it in the fall. Apparently they wanted to tie the film back to the overall message they are trying to relay. I believe it’s just limited release in LA and NY.

lurkersville @ 06/10/2007 at 3:20 pm

OT I checked Rotten tomatoes for info on Ms. Cotilard (who’s Angelina’s age by the way) and all I have to say is, damn! LOL!!!!

PT I think you’re right but I would think at least a nomination would be given to acknowledge her.

It’s way to early to be discussing all this but it was the critics in Cannes who started all this, not us.

AMH is an important film based on Mariane Pearl’s book. No one could guess what she had to go through. AMH will shed light on this.

Is TAOJJ ever coming out?

If you haven’t seen the movie, how do you know it is OVERRATED?

I saw it yesterday, and as much as I love Brad, the Oceans movies havent been my favorites..but I have to say I really liked this one. It was a lot of fun.. and very satisfying at the end.(i love what Brad’s character did for that guy at the end)

BTW, does anyone know the tune of Brad’s character’s cell phone?

Human League

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When i met you
I picked you out, i shook you up, and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on you’ve got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don’t forget it’s me who put you where you are now
And i can put you back down too

Don’t, don’t you want me?
You know i can’t believe it when i hear that you won’t see me
Don’t, don’t you want me?
You know i don’t believe you when you say that you don’t need me
It’s much too late to find
You think you’ve changed your mind
You’d better change it back or we will both be sorry

Don’t you want me baby? don’t you want me - oh
Don’t you want me baby? don’t you want me - oh

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then i knew i’d find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now i think it’s time i lived my life on my own
I guess it’s just what i must do

Don’t you want me baby? don’t you want me - oh
Don’t you want me baby? don’t you want me - oh
