When I used to smoke a little green, Dumb and Dumber and Ace Ventura were great :mj07: Shawshank is everywhere, I knew it would be. I have heard that it didnt even do very well in the theatres?

Appears it didn't kill in theatres, you are right. Maybe just poor advertising? Also, it's probaby not the type of movie that got a ton of hype. Personally, I like it more everytime I see it, maybe it just did not catch on quickly. Apparently Office Space is similiar in making all of it's money well after the release.
