Will Smith went straigt into No.1 in the UK , but Robin Williams' : What Dreams May Come could only manage No.6.

Can Star Trek: Insurrection knock Will of No.1 ???



28 DECEMBER :


Major news concerning The X Files has been added to the X Files Page


In the US Box Office Top 10 , Patch Adams opened @ No. 1, Stepmom @ 2 and The Faculty opened @ No. 5.
No.5, I bet Kevin Williamson taught it would do better, but (from what I have heard), it is totally unoriginal and boring. Not what you would usually find in one of Williamson's film

Star Trek: Insurrection opens in the UK on Friday, with Advance screening on Thursday



21 DECEMBER:


There was a surprise at the US Box Office , when The Prince Of Egypt only opened at No. 2, behind

It must seem like a cast reunion in Buffy lately. First with James Masters returning as Spike, and now with Mark Metcalf returning as The Master.
THE MASTER; but he was killed. Yes, but in the new episode, The Wish, Cordy wishes that Buffy never came to Sunnydale...

Also, John Travolta has been removed from The Thin Red Line. I'm not sure if his scenes were cut out, or if he just left the movie, but anyway, he will not be in it.
