After a rash of fawning, poor-widdle-victims media blitzing, and eight weeks in theaters, the Dixie Chicks documentary, Shut Up and Sing, has finally passed the $1 million mark in box office receipts.

Woo. Hoo.

I hope it cost a lot more than that to make it.

[DTogo]

Dixie who...??

[reagan_fanatic]

That should just about cover Fat Nat's monthly Twinkie budget.

Ping.

[Dog Gone]

I need some bifocals.

[Always Right]

The soon to be Dixie Splits.

I hope it cost a lot more than that to make it.

Oh, I'm sure it did... not too mention the publicity costs and tour. (Wide-body jets, 'n all that...)

*MEOW*

Just hilarious! Since only their fans would pay to see this dreck, the C+ rating is as telling as the boxoffice numbers, 28% of whom gave it an F!

Many movies today break $1 million before they open, due to advance ticket sales.

P.S. I did apologize for the formatting...

Last week, I happened to see an interview with an actor who plays the politician/flying older brother on "Heroes". Hi name is Adrian Pasdar.

At the end of the interview the interviewer mentioned that he is the husband of Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks. It was sort of glossed over as if he didn't want it to be brought up.

Really kills me that Heroes is in any way connected to Dixie Chicks. How to ruin a good showin one step.

......and I never got paid for my cameo from when we heckled 'em in Boston.

Buncha friggin' whiners....

Only one site lists
a budget. That says it was
an even million.

Typically you must
add a lot more for prints and
advertising and

distribution costs.
Maybe it will break even.
Don't look for sequels!

[Lunatic Fringe]

Surely all the 'hip' people are coming out to see them...

It's just a gimmick to revive the Dixie Chicks' failing career.

Let hear it for the Dixie Hoes!!! I guess they lost this fight too. Maybe they should go back to Texas and move to Sixth Street- the only placed there is any love for them in the entire state.
