Another leftwing BO disaster flick.

Matt Damon is a short twerp. He is getting more anti-American. Glad to see this movie tanking.

There’s about 4 threads on this already. And I’ve stated in at least two, that I’ll never watch, rent or own any production that includes Matt Damon in its credits. Ever.

Nor will I patronize any flick that is remotely anti-American.

“meaning it will be a major money loser.”
Excellent!

[Sans-Culotte]

I am surprised this movie is tanking. The TV spots make it look like Bourne IV. Maybe word got around in e-mails that this movie was anti-American? Or maybe Matt Damon has worn out his box office appeal because everybody knows he's a lib tool now?

I know a guy who went to see it. He's a republican, but has to see everything new. He found it disgusting and regretted the ticket purchase. And he saw Avatar 3 times.

I honor of the Government “Stimulus”, they need to get right on “Green Zone 2” immediately! Since Unemployment payments and food stamps are the very best thing to get an economy really going! (Pelosi)

[Old Grumpy]

“The anti-military “Green Zone” has now become but the latest of such movies to bomb bigtime at the box office.”

Ha ha! Serves them right.

I dunno - this review suggests the real outrage should be directed at Cheney, and somehow manages to mix it up with Catholicism, with Mark Shea’s approval:

I wonder what the box office response would be if we showed an Iraq war hero story - maybe the siege of Fallujah?

[robomatik]

both “the kingdom,” and “the hurt locker” were pretty darn good movies imho. i had relatively small issues with each, but...

Is Matt Damon a Ferengi?...

My daughter and son-in-law saw it by accident last week (they have two toddlers and haven’t been out of the house in a while, and the movie they wanted to see was sold out, so since the baby sitter was there, they saw it). They are conservatives (my son-in-law was with me at the March for Justice in ‘98) and he said it was AWFUL. Unwatchable...aside from the barf-inspiring politics.
