TRIVIA
Closed sets and gag orders never stopped the rumor mill before and Steven
Spielberg's A.I. Artificial Intelligence is no exception. Information ranging from the
ridiculous to the way-too-real has leaked out onto The Internet. Everything from
hidden messages in posters to voice-mail boxes for fictional characters have
provided fodder for those with the urge to learn every little secret before the June
29th U.S. premiere. For the benefit of those who favor suspense, we'll focus on
where A.I. came from, where it's going and what the people involved think about it.

Look for a review of A.I. soon after the June 29th release!
"How will A.I. do at the box office?" is a question going through many people's
minds. Numbers aren't everything. They can't measure the greatness of a
film, it's director or cast or crew. But numbers do reflect a film's popularity,
and usually how well they are remembered. Let's take a look at some
previous Steven Spielberg films and the relative coinage they collected.
