"How High" rises even higher .......

[Nosak]

Earlier this week, The 411 Online reported that "How High," starring Method Man and Redman, was averaging $6,003 per theater. Now the No. 1 comedy in the country has upped that figure to $7,725 through Christmas, which is second only to "Lord of the Rings." That means that every time you go to the theater and "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings" are taking up three or four theaters each, Meth and Red are holding their own with just one. It's also why "How High" sells out so quick and people end up seeing something that's playing in more theaters, like say, Will Smith's latest vehicle, "Ali." Even with all the star power, hype and accessibility, "Ocean's 11," "Vanilla Sky" and even "Ali" pulled in less money per theater. Sure, "Ali" earned $10.2 million the first day and "How High" has earned a total of $9.8 million over five, but the biographical boxing flick was in almost twice as many theaters -- 2,446 compared to 1,266. Give it a full week, and certainly some of those figures will even out, but let's not deprive Method Man and Redman of their time in the spotlight. Because for the moment, their movie is pulling in more money (per theater) than Will Smith's. And that's saying something. The duo also is planning to venture into television. Method Man revealed recently that he and Redman completed a pilot for a new show called "Stung" that will feature pranks and practical jokes captured on hidden cameras "We'll see. We just did the pilot, we're gonna see how that comes off," Method Man told Launch. "If it comes off right, we got nine more of those to do. It takes a week to film a whole show." He also mentioned a new spray being developed that might also get the Method Man and Redman seal of approval. "We're coming out with a fragrance for your car," he said. "Spray it when the cops pull you over and your car smells like instant Buddha Away."

dawm this movie his dope,really dope



and some old facts about nas:

Code: [Select]

Nas had the highest debut of the week on the Billboard 200 albums chart, but it wasn't nearly enough to knock off pop's heavy hitters. Stillmatic will debut at No. 8 on next week's chart after selling 343,000 copies. That total fell far short of No. 1 Creed (865,000) and premature predictions that the album would move more than 500,000 units. Britney Spears, Garth Brooks, Enya and another Now compilation were among the others that outdid some of hip-hop's finest. Although Jay-Z was not expected to be among the week's top sellers, some thought his public beef with Nas might fuel sales of Unplugged. However, the live album managed to sell only 144,000 copies and will debut at No. 34.
