$14.5 million in its opening weekend, in wide release. Its budget was approximately $100 million. There’s a very good chance it will never break even, at least until they show it in places like Iran and Venezuela.
Meanwhile, The Blind Side (the pro-family, uplifting Sandra Bullock movie) has made well over $200 million in its run from a $26 million budget. But do you think Hollywood will see those two sets of numbers and get the message? Probably not. They still think they’re smarter than we are.

I liked The Blind Side too.
