General:
Comments: The movie, "Lost In Space", is an $80 million spin-off of the
classic '60's TV adventure series. The movie starts in the year 2056. The
Robinson family is selected to travel through space to another planet to
prepare it for human colonization. The space vehicle, "Jupiter-2", is
piloted by Don West. Dr. Smith is the evil stow away. The space vehicle
flies off course and they get 'lost in space'. Together, they have to
return to planet Earth and save the human race.
Cameo appearances from some of the original cast include the original
Robinson sisters - Angela Cartwright (Penny) and Marta Kristen (Judy) as
well as June Lockhart (Maureen) and Mark Goddard (West).
"Lost In Space" includes an open-ended finish. No surprise here. If all
goes well there will be sequels? Lost In Space is opening in a record
3,306 theaters. The previous record had been held by "The Lost World:
Jusrassic Park" which opened in 3,281 theaters on 23 May 1997.
Box Office weekend of 3-5 April - Lost in Space comes in at number 1 with
estimated $20.5 million for North American weekend box office based on
preliminary figures available Sunday 5 April. It sinks Titanic after
Titanic cuises for 15 consecutive weeks at number 1 but can not make it
16.
