Yeah. It has to do with the fact that the reviewers were the ones praising the movie, and not so much so for the consumers. Just because critics love something doesn't always mean insta-sales for whatever is being reviewed, or even insta-love by consumers. That's just the unfortunate way of the World sometimes.

Also @ #1-wwf-fan: How can anyone NOT friggin' love The Cable Guy? It's a funny-ass Jim Carrey movie, and the person he's supposed to be helping in the very beginning? Well, as I'm sure everyone has heard by now, that before that person's set konks out, in the very first scene, you can see that the person is watching Press Your Luck. (You can actually hear Peter Tomarken announcing a person hitting $3000 + ONE SPIN at one point...)

"CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABLE GUYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"

God, Jim Carrey is so damn funny. I find it amazing that Carrey and Sandler, maybe even Rob Schneider, a hint of Jon Stewart and/or Steve Colbert, all in a mega-comedy, could be gold just waiting to happen. But doubtful since Stewart and Colbert kinda have the whole mock rating war over on Comedy Central.
