March of the Penguins Passes Columbine

marchofthepenguins.jpgHow would you like to be the stars or producers of “The Honeymooners“, or the Martin Lawrence film “Rebound” or the Hillary Duff film “The Perfect Man” or maybe even big name movies like “Stealth” and “Dark Water“. All these people have to wake up every morning and realize that a documentary about penguins did better at the box office than their movies. Sucks to be them. But March of the Penguins has just passed Bowling for Columbine into second place on the all time box office chart for documentaries. It’s now passed $26 million.

Don’t know about March of the Penguins? Here’s a synopsis for ya:

Emperor penguins overcome daunting obstacles in order to return to their breeding grounds for mating season. This tells the story of one year in the life of a flock — focusing on one couple in particular — as they trek across the Antarctic on an annual journey that invokes just about every major life experience: from birth to death, from dating to mating, from comedy to tragedy, and from love to fighting for survival.

THe picture is narrated by Morgan Freeman. I still haven’t seen it, but everyone I know who has says they loved it. I think I might go take it in today.
