Question Asked: What Movie Has Played In The Most Theaters?

This one’s tough, because the numbers that get reported for box office stats don’t technically count specific theaters, but actual screens at the theaters.

Based on that, the answer is Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, which opened on 4,455 screens, worldwide.

It’s estimated that the next installment(s) of the Harry Potter franchise will open on even more screens, with an estimated 5,000 each.

Question Asked: Is The Scene Where Brandon Lee Died Still In The Crow?

According to Snopes, no, it’s just a rumor.

The scene where Brandon Lee was fatally wounded by a mis-firing of a prop gun was removed from the final film, out of respect for his family.

Though not confirmed, it is believed that the film of his death was never viewed, or developed.  The other side of that rumor is that it was confiscated by the local police to aide in their investigation.

Question Asked: What Is The Longest Movie Title Ever?

From the information I could find, the longest movie title I could find is:

Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead Part 2: In Shocking 2-D

It’s a bit ridiculous, but that’s the longest (English) movie title I could find anywhere. There’s a longer one from a foreign film called

Un Fatto di sangue nel commune di Sculiana fra due unomini per causa di una vedova si sospetanomoventi politici. Amore-Morte-Shimmy. Lugano belle. Tarantelle. Taratelle e vino.

Which roughly translates to “Revenge” in English, so I’m not counting that one.

Question Asked: When Does Inception Come Out In Theaters?

Christopher Nolan’s much anticipated Inception is set to be released into theaters on July 16th, 2010.

The follow up to The Dark Knight from master writer/director Christopher Nolan stars Ellen Page, Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Michael Caine, Cillian Murphy, Ken Watanabe, and many more big stars.

There is very little information available yet as to what the movie is about, other than it being a science fiction movie.
