Tomorrow <a href="http://boxofficemojo.com/counts/chart/?yr=2012&wk=40&p=.htm" rel="nofollow">EoW</a> will be shown in 2,370 theaters, down by 410 compared to this week. A somewhat bigger drop at the box office seems likely.<br /><br /><i>It's not going to do well overseas.</i><br /><br />I think it's performing solidly as a low budget movie.<br />As much as I anticipate "An Enemy" (and possibly "Mississippi Grind"), I'd like Jake to act in major studio movies like "Prisoners" once in a while, so he can reach bigger audiences outside the US.Hagennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082978304655465192.post-35821669309827671502012-10-04T15:16:57.331-04:002012-10-04T15:16:57.331-04:00Lol my cousin is in new York and says Jake gyllenh...<i>Lol my cousin is in new York and says Jake gyllenhaal is right next to her.

I hope Obama didn't "win" the debate last night, it just means that Romney set the bar high for himself. He's not a bad guy Romney, its just that he does not know what's it like to struggle at any level. I don't think he knows what its like to handle pressure. But we will see, it's up to President Obama to take charge and I think last night may have woken up the Obama camp.

They also go to the movies more often than any other ethnic group: Hispanic moviegoers go to the movies 5.3 times a year, on average. That compares with 3.5 times for whites and 3.7 times for African-Americans. <br /><br />Studios and indie companies are no novices at marketing to Hispanics, but they still only spend a fraction of their marketing budgets on this demo, at least in terms of advertising on Spanish-language networks Univision and Telemundo. Open Road, for instance, spent about 10 percent of its television budget for End of Watch on the two nets; usually, it would only spend 5 percent (in line with other companies). Guided by Cassidy, Open Road also cut a Spanish-language trailer for the movie. "What has been instructive is that the more authentic the Latino experience feels, the bigger draw it seems to have for that audience. For us, the response was amazing," says Cassidy.<br /><br />But Alex Nogales, president and CEO of the National Hispanic Media Coalition, believes Hollywood isn't doing enough. "They need to do better if they want to capture this market," he says, noting that many of the roles played by Hispanics fit into the villain stereotype.<br /><br />Nogales, whose group is based in Pasadena, also thinks film marketers need to be even more proactive. The coalition is proposing a First Look Club, where Hollywood's establishment would prescreen movies and TV shows for Latinos to create prerelease buzz. This summer, Open Road prescreened End of Watch for Nogales' group, and he says it paid off.<br /><br />The activist also commends End of Watch for not falling prey to stereotypes, noting that Pena's character plays a hero. "I can't think of too many films where there is a balance of Latino bad guys and good guys," he says. "I can remember when many films had an African-American sidekick. We're seeing the same phenomenon with Latinos, and that needs to change."<br /><br />Following End of Watch's successful opening, the coalition sent an e-mail blast to constituents urging them to see the film. Again, the effort aided the film, which dropped a modest 40 percent its second weekend. "Hispanics go en masse to the movies and as a family," notes Blacker. "Sometimes, they even go repetitively. Any studio has to find a way to be relevant to the U.S. Hispanic market."Hagennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082978304655465192.post-74111748508660435772012-10-04T06:54:22.515-04:002012-10-04T06:54:22.515-04:00Thanks for your review UV!
