I'm happy that Farenheit 9/11 did so well at the box office...I was never a fan of Michael Moore but after that movie he practically became my hero lol

Superstar · 09-07-2004, 12:21 PM

The only movies I saw on that list were
Mean Girls
Shrek 2
Princess Diaries 2

The only movies I liked from that list are

Mean Girls
Princess Diaries 2

I thought Shrek 2 was pathetic

YOU MAY NOT UTTER THE NAME MICHAEL MOORE, FOR HE IS THE ANTI-CHRIST!!!

In all seriousness, it was a very good film.

Very depressing that Troy made more money than Fahrenheit 9/11. Love Michael Moore or hate him, that film is a great achievment and will be watched and argued over for years to come. I don't see anyone wanting to ever sit through Troy again.

Well, except for Peter O'Toole's performance, maybe. Talk about a five star performer in a one star movie. I hope he wins an Oscar for it.

It's amazing how well Shrek 2 did. I haven't seen it yet, but I do like Dreamworks CGI films more than Pixar's, so I'm glad to see Shrek 2 overtaking Finding Nemo.

I thought Spiderman 2 would do better. I thought it would break 400 million easy. I suppose its the law of diminishing returns.

I thought I Robot would do better as well. People raved about it when it was first released. I suppose Wil Smiths annoying overacting has finally got to people. The movie would have been so much better with Wesley Snipes instead.

they only made that much money because people are st

Dutabi84 · 09-16-2004, 02:20 PM

I saw 6 of those top 10, plus a few others that were great. This was one of the best summers movie-wise that we've had in a long time.

barwars · 09-19-2004, 11:10 AM

I saw....

1. Shrek 2, $436.7M
2. Spider-Man 2, $369.9M
4. The Day After Tomorrow, $186.2M
6. I, Robot, $141.0M
7. Troy, $133.3M
10. Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, $113.4M

The Village $110,507,857 (Shymalan not in the top 10)
Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle $17,832,106

Besides "Troy" and "The Village", I liked them all.
"Shrek 2" was good, but doesnt deserve to be #1. I thought "Spider-Man 2" was much better.
But, the prize of the summer had to be "Anchorman", the best movie of 2004 IMO.
