I obviously know a lot more about films and openings than you do. I looked at what was coming out and the subject matter and hypothesized that “Charlie Wilson’s War” would not open big and I was right. I don’t have to see the movie in toto to know what the prospects are for a successful gross. Well That film was probably released at the wrong time given it’s subject matter. Right now people want a great comedy or a great escapist film and it was neither.
End of argument. And by the way your rudeness was out of line. Are you a real unhappy person? Please have a Merry Christmas and find a little happiness.

I don’t know if people want comedy. Dewey Cox, which is getting great reviews, got half the money CWW got with an even bigger ad campaign. There are a lot of possible reasons for CWW’s failure, but a Christmas quest for great comedy would not appear to be it.
