“Rocco noted “Green Zone” did better than most other entries in the Iraq war genre, including Oscar best picture winner “The Hurt Locker,” which has earned about $16 million since June.”
Only in Hollywood can they think that they sucked a little less.
Simple accounting seems to be out of the grasp of Hollywood-types as well. I read during Oscar week that the Hurt Locker had a production budget of $15 million, whereas "The Green Zone"'s production budget was over $100 million.
That's like one homeless guy telling another that he at least has a card box to sleep on in the freezing night. What matters here is that the movie may never recover it's costs, and they could end up taking a big loss on this vile piece of anti-American propaganda.
