Tarrantino Tops Box Office
Inglorious Basterds came in as the number one movie for the weekend with a North American gross of 37.6. This is Quentin Tarrinto's best opening, topping 2004's Kill Bill. Once again this week, sci-fi and fantasy movies dominate the top ten. With District 9 managing to hold on to the number 2 spot (18.9 M), GI Joe taking the number 3 spot ($12.5); the Time Traveler's Wife coming in at 4 ($10 M). The Robert Rodriquez movie, Shorts, landed in 6th place had a disappointing opening only earning 6.6 million. G Force and Harry Potter are still going strong in 7th ($4.2M) and 8th ($3.5) places, respectively.

CDC Slams Gamers As Sad Fat A**es
A new study by the Center for Disease Control says that the average gamer is 35, fat and depressed. Here are the results of the study:
A total of 45.1% of respondents reported playing video games. Female video-game players reported greater depression (M=1.57) and poorer health status (M=3.90) than female nonplayers (depression, M=1.13; health status, M=3.57). Male video-game players reported higher BMI (M5.31) and more Internet use time (M=2.55) than male nonplayers (BMI, M=5.19; Internet use, M=2.36). The only determinant common to female and male video-game players was greater reliance on the Internet for social support.
