Someone emailed and asked if I had a position for “Sex and The City 2″ and the answer is no. In fact, as you can see from the volume numbers, no one on Intrade has an SATC2 position! Epic fail. The contracts were even listed three or four weeks in advance of this weekend. I could do 500 words on how Intrade could attract more volume but I have neither the time nor energy to churn that out right now.
As for the actual movie…I am embarrassed to admit I watched the first one (it was on HBO [shocker] a few months back), but this sequel looks like the most plot-less film in recent memory. I mean, honestly, has anyone watched the trailer or the ads for this movie?? If you have please chime in on the comments. The film is currently scoring a stellar 16% on Rotten Tomatoes, but Nikki Finke says it did $3m in midnights alone last night. It will probably rake in $20m by day’s end, and I wouldn’t be shocked to see the 5-day tally at $75m+ by the time Tuesday morning rolls around. So as much as I detest the movie, the businessman in me says Kudos to whoever green-lit the second film.
