No conservative filmmaker can get a foot in the door with those damned socialist chihuahuas controlling Hollywood!

Well… BoxOfficeMojo. com says-

It peaked on opening Saturday @ $955 per screen and had a low of $130 per screen on Tuesday the 10th.

Currently @ #15 averaging $300+ per on 18 less screens (but that is weekend Box Office).

I can’t help but wonder how much money Religulous could have made with a broader release. Considering how Maher’s movie, though it opened in half the number of theaters, outperformed ‘Merican Carul (damn that conniving zit faced teenage librul conspiracy machine) it would have been nice to see it come out as a major release. I understand that low population red states probably wouldn’t have been a good place to show the film, but it bothered me how few screens Religulous actually made it to.

More proof the Mexicans are taking over our top movie slots.

“Would you put out a chihuahua movie and make $17.5 million in the first weekend. You can’t do it, my friends!”

They shouldn’t worry too much, Boston’s not a big college town.

If they only let boy genius Doughy Pantload have a crack at the script, not only would the movie be a success, but Obama would lose.

Religulous is one fine movie. Murikan Carul? Not so much; even the winger fan boys aren’t running up the score on that one.

This means one of 2 things, they either aren’t up to leaving mom’s basement given all those scary Obama-ites everywhere, or there really aren’t that many True Believers anymore.

Speaking of Spinal Tap…Last night’s season premiere of “The Graham Norton Show” on BBC America featured Eddie Izzard and Harry Shearer, both of whom were in releaxed-but-funny mode. Highly entertaining. Catch the repeat if you can.

Esta en el basurero.

Let’s see, $6 mill made in two weeks but their production budget was $20 mill. They pulled in $1.5 mill this weekend and if they could continue to do that (extremely, highly dubious), they may eventually cover their nut in, oh, nine more weeks or so. (And, of course, no theater overseas would touch a movie like this if they’re in their right mind.)

Yeah, Republican business practices. Let’s show the world how to make a loss!

Hey… I know: how ’bout a movie about a talking moose that singlehandedly repels a Russian invasion with a hockey stick with his sidekick, a former Miss America contestant? It’d be a huge hit with Joe Six Pack and all the other average Americans; really, it would. You betcha… We’ll get Jonah Goldberg to write the script, and Jon Voight can do the voice of the moose.

I like to see numbers. From http://www.boxofficemojo.com

Religulous - domestic box office $6,702,000 (Estimate) as of 10.12
Production Budget: $2.5 million

Amer Carol - domestic box office $6,081,000 (Estimate) as of 10.12
Production Budget: $20 million

Clearly, “conservatives” should be no where near the nation’s finances.
And probably not any artistic endeavours. What’s left?

Right Wing Media. No profits, no talent - no problem.

I don’t think so, unless you can hold off the election for a couple of years while Jonah gets some help with writing it. I recall several setbacks for the production schedule for his own book.

Why in the world is that idiotic film still in first? A film that couldn’t even bother to straighten out Aztecs and Incans. Sheesh. It’s films like these that make people dumb enough to believe that people with Kenyan ancestry are Arabian.

You’re looking for accuracy in a film about talking dogs????

Now I’m interested* to see if David Zucker will lard the next entry in the [movie subgenre]Movie series with references to Bill Ayers, ACORN, etc. in the fond hope that the sort of no-hopers that go to see these pseudocomedies will somehow absorb their hidden messages, the way that librul Hollywood is always sneaking subliminal political memes into its movies, you know.

*But not interested enough to go see them myself.

I confess to having seen Chihuahua….because I have kids. It is a bore…with a few cute moments because only a heartless cretin wouldn’t love little doggies. But, of the others on the list, will you all weigh in on what you think is worth seeing?
BTW–I thought Burn After Reading was a stitch.

I clicked on the “Yes on 8″ / ProtectMarriage.com linkie that perplexingly advertises on your page, and got a handful of SQL socket errors and fatals, etc. Is that what happens when the homos get together — web pages no longer load? I must vote Yes on 8!

As Stephanie Miller would say:

“Donde los Yikes!”

I guess David Zucker gets to go back to making z-grade parodies of worn-out movie genres.

At least those usually open big…

Can’t be a talking moose because it would have been slaughtered and roasted on the [Caribou] Barbie.

[Thank you, thank you, I’m here all week….]

My local Costco got a pallet of his paperback. After a week, They sent the entire thing back…

Frankly, I think it just wasn’t crass enough. If they’d thrown in a few naked breasts and jokes about female starlets being whores, it might have made money. Bo Derek is conservative and IMDB says she wasn’t busy, so why didn’t they find a part for her?

I thought Burn After Reading was good too… those Coen Bros always have to have that “woodchipper moment” though, don’t they?

I think they almost planned to make their revenue through DVD sales and rentals. Hell, most people are religous, and many people hate paying $10.00+ to see a movie in the theater in the first place, so i can’t see how they planned to have people fill seats to see their religious views made fun of. Fahrenheit 911 did well because it was more political and they released it before the election, and did even better in DVD sales after they stole Ohio.
