2008 Batman movie
Anybody who knows me knows that I'm a sucker for going to see a moving picture. Apparently, so are about 44 million other joes and jills. The 2008 Batman movie that just came out, "The Dark Knight" has racked up over $314 million since it hit the screen a week and a half ago. But don't get your hopes up ... we're in a recession (*COUGH*).
To me, these numbers mean 1 of 2 things. Either a bunch of people are spending dough they don't have and need a total money makeover, or they're doing all right for themselves and have the cash to blow on food and a flick, which means this "recession" everyone's gabbing about is as legit as Al Gore’s chances of winning the election.
Know what I'm doing this coming weekend, jack ... anything I want! Because I worked, saved and got the cash. Quit belly achin' and start money makin', baby.

This M.O. does not fit what we're seeing on Lawyers.com. From 1 million searches for attorneys by consumers in Q2 2008, there was a sharp 37% increase in searches for bankruptcy attorneys over the same period last year. This correlates to the 30% rise in personal bankruptcy filings in second quarter 2008, as well. Maybe movies are the last expenditure to get zapped?

You see much depends on the way the movie is advertised. Even if it is not so interetsing and captivating it will be in the centre of attention.
