   I saw Mad Money Saturday and I loved and enjoyed it. It was so funny. It was the first movie I’ve ever seen Adam in and was hilarious in his scenes, lol. Can’t wait to see him with Mariah Carey on Tennessee!

   Speaking of Mad Money…unfortunately, the movie debut was at #7 with $7.7 million.

   Here are the top 10 movies’ early estimates from this weekend (according to Box Office Mojo):

   1 ) Cloverfield - $41 million
   2 ) 27 Dresses - $22.4 million
   3 ) The Bucket List — $15.2 million
   4 ) Juno — $10.3 million
   5 ) National Treasure: Book of Secrets — $8.1 million
   6 ) First Sunday — $7.8 million
   7 ) Mad Money — $7.7 million
   8 ) Alvin and the Chipmunks — $7 million
   9 ) I Am Legend — $5.1 million
   10 ) Atonement — $4.7 million

   Also, Adam was featured in People Magazine (with Matthew McConaughey on the cover) under the Movies section. There was a review of Mad Money with Katie Holmes pic on it a few pages back (no Adam, but he was featured all by himself in a lil’ Q&A section. I was surprised to see him featured there, so that was nice to see and read more info about him in People, lol). People gave Mad Money 2 and 1/2 stars though (no Adam mention in the review). There’s a nice pic of Adam there, but unfortunately, my scanner’s not working properly right, so I can’t show you a scan. Sorry. Here’s the lil’ part about Adam that I thought I’d share and post it here for those of you who don’t have a copy of People magazine.

   Adam Rothenberg is …
   Mad About Katie Holmes

   (He was quoted as saying, “Every job I get, I feel like I’ve dodged a bullet,” says Rothenberg. “Then, the terror builds.”)

   *Jackpot! The actor, 32, makes the leap from garbage man to Katie’s onscreen man in the comedy Mad Money.

   You have quite an interesting resume.
   Yeah, I was a garbage man, was in the Army and was
   a fact-checker for Mademoiselle. The worst was as a security guard: gruesome 12-hour shifts in front of an elevator.

   What about the rumors you were stealing Katie away from Tom?
   My mother had a ball with it. There was this photo that said, “Meet the man Tom Cruise is terrified of.” That was really great.

   Did you ever meet your rival?
   He was never on set when I was there, so no. He is, obviously, terrified of me.

   Thanks for the box-office rundown. The audience I saw it with really responded, so hopefully it’ll get some good word of mouth and hang on for a few weeks.

   We’ve got the People story and we’ll get it and some Adam news posted in the next few days for everybody.

   Yeah, the same here with the audience I saw it with. They all responded and laugh at all the funny parts esp. in all Adam’s scenes that were funny. Hopefully, more people will see this this week or so. I told my friends and co-workers to go see this movie, lol.

   I went to see Mad Money (again) today and Adam just made me laugh, lol. His scenes were just too funny esp. in one scene where he said, “Greetings, Earthlings!” and another “Where is my lawyer?” in Spanish, Haha!!! The audience were laughing a lot when he said those lines.
