There are several reports that the audiences are standing and cheering in the theaters.

AMC Ahwatukee theatre mgr told me they sold so many tickets for #Undefeated that they had to move it to a bigger screen!

Undefeated sold out 7:10 and 10:04 showings in Kennesaw. #1 movie in this theater tonight!

People in the theater CHEERED when they saw Palin at the tea party rally.

PalinUndefeated attitude is spreading like wild fire. Watch the Dems start eating themselves

How come nobody in the MSM is RTing that @PalinUndefeated is selling out and getting standing Os?! Aren’t they “objective” RTers?!?

People around me are saying, “WOW” about the frivolous ethics complaints. They didn’t know.

So much for the early misleading reviews yesterday from misogynists and other haters of smart women especially this smart and good looking woman. Thanks to the MSM etc. thousands did not know how she was eviscerated, lied about and driven to give up her Governorship - now they do! Good on Sarah, a REAL American!

I imagine if you looked long and hard you could find a neighborhood or town that is so utterly leftist no one would attend. Some of the burbs around San Francisco and LA might be like that.

I heard it was a midnight screening that was not announced until late that evening. Apparently the manager thought he could snag a few customers since the theater was packed on the earlier shows.

Round these parts midnight movies are often strange cult classics like Heavy Metal,The Rocky Horror Picture Show,Eraserhaed and Pink Flamingos.
Can't imagine the average midnight movie goer having ANY interest in watching a movie about a Christian Conservative leader.

It will go into wider release, and probably open somewhere close to you.

There was one news report, I can’t remember from where or what CA city but it reported that it showed to an empty theater.

I found a post on some leftist blog stating that the Orange county theater was empty for the Palin documentary. We all know some guy posting on a leftist blog wouldn't lie.

I expect that if the MSM covers the Palin documentary at all, it will only mention theaters where it didn't draw a big audience. The theaters where it does well will be ignored or dismissed because the 'Harry Potter' film drew bigger audiences, as if documentaries ever beat wildly popular franchise fantasy films.

In short, no matter how well 'The Undefeated' does, in the MSM, the fix is in and it will be termed a 'flop'. Remember, the leftmedia loathes, fears and despises Sarah Palin and will never give her anything close to a fair shake.

I heard the producer on Hannity saying that the release will continue, first pay per view, and then ultimately, DVD.

Keep your peepers peeled.

It is nice to have something to look forward to seeing at the theater.
With Governor Sarah Palin writing books, doing TV shows, appearances, and now the Movie/CD, she is finessing the fund raising challenge. She has her own seed money and is not beholden to the normal fat cats, unions, and other noxious creatures of the political world.

That was an unadvertised midnight showing before any of the promoted shows were aired. Who knew? Oddly enough, a journolist made the point of catching that midnight show and reported. Funny how his article was then replicated across the liberal media.

It was in CA and it was for a midnight show on Thursday that was never advertised.

In LA, that would be East LA for likely zero attendance and, in Orange County, Santa Ana and Laguna Beach would be expected near zero attendance. The reason? Think latinos and gays...

There will be DVD’s, pay per view, and WalMart was named as a distributor. There may also be many more theaters if the first 10 response limited release indicates it is viable. I donated $100 to SarahPAC and will get a DVD through them when it’s ready.

Not only was it a midnight showing, Harry Potter was having a midnight showing at the same theater...most rational and/or sober adults would stay away.

Not exactly. That showing was on Thursday/midnight and wasn’t advertised. It always was advertised to start Friday.

Adults are going to theaters with Harry Potter - that wouldn’t keep them away.

It was not advertised along w/that was a Thursday - it was always advertised to start Friday.

It will be interesting to see how many Left wing blogs pass that along.
