Now this is the Gawker we know and expect. Ads for the just debuted film 500 Days of Summer has been plastered across Gawker Media’s family o’ sites (seriously, they’re everywhere) for the last weekish. And today, after the news broke that the new Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince flick has already grossed $100 million, Defamer’s Natasha VC writes what we’re all thinking:
“Teenage Wizard Movie has jumped to the $100 million mark in the worldwide box office sales. Which poses a fascinating question: Why did the producers of 500 Days of Summer choose this weekend to open? Surely Potter’s box office bonanza comes as no surprise. Did they really think the mopey teens who like ‘meaning music’ were going to snub Potter for uh, the kid from 3rd Rock? SILLY FOOLS!”
