How is that breaking even if it cost them ~$12 million?

That was just the opening and on a really really really bad weekend to open a movie, it'll probly make 6 million overall, probly more, and then there is video sales, which will probly break it even.

Ahh, I stand corrected.

When it comes to those twisted folks who eagerly seek out cinematic disaster areas, however, that's a different story. Some people wait a lifetime for a turkey like this -- and for them, "From Justin to Kelly" will provide a holiday feast. Not since Diana Ross and Brandy's "Double Platinum" has there been such a spectacularly wretched musical melodrama.
Suck shit, cash in pop culture whores.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Are you really surpised? The public aren't the dumb sheep the industry think. Over in the UK one of the bands from Popstars the rivals has already split due to crap sales. 10 year olds may watch these shows but 10 year olds do not have the money to buy the CD's. Pretty soon the industry will grow a brain stem and start doing things the tried and trusted way, trawl the live music clubs, find a band with talent and throw a shit load of money at them.
