The American people will not go to see "Bareback Mount" or whatever its called. They're not interested in "Sodomy on the Range".
Well, the libs will do or say ANYTHING to further their perverted causes. This is no exception. The Academy Awards coming up will be disgusting when you look at the perverse themes of the "GREAT WORKS OF ART" that these slobbering lefties are going to put up as the best of the best. (barf bucket please).
they had some union leaders buy some thousands of copies (using the members dues money of course) and the cases of books sits in some warehouse for years.
I smell a plan here.
Like when FortWorthless Jim Wright had the union thugs buy his book to bump up the numbers.
"only saw 4 people in there"
Were they all men? Sitting REAL close? Maybe they bought the show out for privacy.
We might go see a movie this weekend (a rare experience).
While I'd rather leave the washroom without washing my hands, I just might walk into the Brokeback theater to see how many are there.
Brokeback Mt is a propaganda strategy. Nothing is beyond the left's perverted imagination, including some fool billionaire buying up all the seats so the film can appear to be doing well at the box office.
YOu have to be careful with stuff like this. A lot of folks today with "fertile" imaginations out there.
Brokeback Mountain, after four weeks:
This week gross: $4,847,443
Cumulative gross: $15,102,697
Probable financial loser, I'd say.

Can they, uh, fudge the box office?
Was Matt one of the four seeing the movie and later bribing the manager to flash the sold out sign?
;)
I just visited America briefly over the holidays. I went to the cinema to see "Narnia". As I was standing in line, what was most evident was a large placard for Brokeback Mountain right in between the two sales desks. I had visited this theatre before and had never seen such aggressive marketing for a film.
Something is definitely wrong. This film is being force fed to the public in any manner it can be done.

I doubt the manager would post the "SOLD OUT" sign if the theater had even a few people already inside, and about to watch the movie. That would only prevent a few more people from buying tickets, and result in the 4 watchers emerging with even more extreme reports of how few people were in attendance. Why would a manager want to do that? It's not as if people assume a movie isn't worth watching if they don't see "Sold Out" signs for it on theater ticket windows. And there's no way a manager would cancel a showing of any movie, if even a single customer was already there in a seat waiting to see it. They'd just cancel the movie's run at the theater earlier than planned.
The guy who reported this may have poked his head into the wrong theater, perhaps a theater where a later showing of the movie was scheduled, with few people having arrived yet. Or he may have looked in the right theater, but long before the scheduled start time, when few people would have already arrived. Many theaters do the bulk of their sales for new highly publicized films via advance and online sales, and Brokeback Mountain is no doubt being attended by a lot of gays, including some sizeable organized groups from colleges who would purchase in advance to make sure no one was turned away after the group arrived.
In the meantime, "Narnia" returned to the number one spot last weekend.
Reminds me of a very old and corny joke...
Did you hear that Elton John's new blushing bride is worried about contracting botulism?G-R-O-A-N-N-N...
Yes, you see... ahem... he heard that you can get it from old meat in a can.Oh... sorry, I thought you said butt-u-lism...
Oh, never mind.
I wouldn't want to see what was going on in that theatre.
