What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: BBC.
Chip DarnellTom Cruise's new film Digger fell around sixty percent in its second weekend, and the BBC says it could become one of Hollywood's biggest flops.
Dale BearmanSixty percent. Out of every ten people who bought a ticket the first weekend, six have apparently told the other four to stay home.
Chip DarnellBut look at it this way: the ones who stayed got a whole row to themselves, with elbow room and nobody kicking the seat.
Chip DarnellThat's a luxury cinema.
Dale BearmanA luxury cinema with no customers is called a ruin, Chip.
Chip DarnellA quiet ruin, with great parking. I haven't seen it, but I'd buy a ticket just to hear my own popcorn.
Dale BearmanYou haven't seen it?
Chip DarnellI haven't seen anything, Dale. What's Digger about?
Dale BearmanJudging by the weekend, a very deep hole.
