Ang Lee chuckling all the way to the bank? Hardly. For all the publicity, the movie is not drawing large crowds. Yes it was cheap to make and their margins will be impressive, but to date, I do not believe this movie has grossed $25 million....Even the bomb Rumor Has It has grossed that much.

The truth is most men in America....70% or more? are not going to go see that movie under any circumstance.

It's grossed a little over 29m world-wide. Just opened in Europe though.

Ok, I surrender on this one. Having said that, the sheer volume of publicity for a "B" grade film is not going to hurt Ang Lee at all. I do wonder how much the film cost to make.
