Red Tails, the movie that Hollywood thought would flop prevails. The film, produced by George Lucass, snagged the #2 spot after Underworld Awakening and brought in 19.1 Million.
George Lucas, made the statement:
“If we can get over $20 million in our first weekend, we’re kind of in the game. We’re in The Help category. If it gets $30 (million) in the first weekend,” he continued, “then those guys [Spike Lee, Lee Daniels etc] get to make their movies without even thinking about it”
We suspect that the $19.1 million is a good enough sign to produce the prequel and sequel which has already been discussed.
