Here's a bummer: Box Office Mojo is now ... kaput.



BoxOfficeMojo.com has vanished with the site redirecting to Amazon.com’s IMDb.



The Box Office Mojo site was acquired by Amazon in late 2008. Reps for Amazon were not immediately available for comment.



The free Box Office Mojo site was widely used by the movie industry for up-to-date box office results along with historical data and release dates of upcoming titles. It was founded in 1999 by Brandon Gray. ...


A shame, since it was a good place to go for box office information. Ah well, nothing is forever. I hope Mr. Gray got a nice chuck of change, selling the site to Amazon.



Add On: And now Mojo is back. Mostly.



Box Office Mojo was back online on Sunday, but the site's editor says he doesn't want to talk about it. ...



Of course that doesn't really solve the mystery of where the popular site for real-time box office statistics went for three days. On Friday visitors were redirected to the website of its parent, IMDb.com. There was no explanation posted on either site. ...
