The Awful Truth: BizBit
By Ted Casablanca with contributor Cristina Gibson
Word on the celluloid street is that the action-horror flick Rogue, about a gigantic man-eating crocodile terrorizing Aussies, is all the rage overseas, par-tick in Turkey, where box-office numbers and positive reviews are surprisingly in sync. The Weinstein bros, we're told, actually believe this mutant species movie is America’s next top blockbuster, and they’ve got their sights on a Memorial Day weekend release. At least, that’s what we hear.
Good news for star hottie Michael Vartan, who hasn’t exactly made headlines for anything other than being dumped by Mrs. Ben Affleck. A $100 mil hit could push Mikey V onto the A-list. Lest you think we’re soaking up all this hype for absolute truthiness, we’re not exactly convinced. The creature-outta-control premise sounds a little bit more attuned to something about Britney Spears on Lifetime, we think.
