an unlikely bond through their shared love of music. Assembling a
like-minded crew of misfits, the friends form a rock group and
perform in the battle of the bands competition at their school.

Who is SA5M?
The 5 is silent. Sa5m is 15 years old, dressed down in black jeans and t-shirt,
with hair strategically hiding her face from the world, she is a loner, one of the
school’s outsiders, constantly seen with a book in hand. Smart, with a sense of
humor and a lot of disdain for her shallow peers, Sam is a former stutterer and
now speaks slowly and deliberately. She teams up with Will on a class project,
and the two quickly discover they have a lot in common. Their friendship
eventually takes the shape of a burgeoning romance. Brought on board
as the lead singer for the band Will is managing, Sa5m emerges from her
cocoon, demonstrating grit and commitment to perfection…

Estimated theater counts from Box Office Mojo

Quote:
1 - The Time Traveler's Wife Warner Bros. (New Line) 2,700+
2 - Bandslam Summit Entertainment 2,000+
3 - District 9 Sony / Screen Gems 2,000
4 - The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard Paramount Vantage 1,500
5 - Ponyo Buena Vista 800
I posted this in the last thread, but people were still going crazy over the premiere that I think some people missed it.

Now this is theater count...it is not referring to the number of screens the movie will be showing on.

TTW is at 2700+ and Bandslam is at 2000+ which means the theater count on the two is expected to rise most likely depending on how the movies do this weekend. District 9 doesn't have a + sign next to it.

I'll bring it over and wait til a mod can put the whole title in.
"She becomes the centre of our interest and remains at the emotional core of the film throughout."

eta: And maybe a mod can say okay, but could we add in a review section? Just so they are all there in the OP?

That's just how many theaters Bandslam will be hitting next week. It doesn't always mean the more you theaters a movie hits the more money it'll make. But just an estimate as to see how many places Bandslam will be hitting in regards to other movies come out next weekend. But 2000 is a sold number of released nationwide.
