Obama 2016 Out on DVD
American Catholic ^ | Sunday, October 21, 2012 A.D | Donald R. McClarey

Dinesh D’Souza’a Obama 2016 is out on DVD.  It has no special features, but I would recommend purchasing it if you didn’t see the movie.  During its theatrical release earlier this year it earned a stunning 33,000,000 which is fantastic box office for a documentary.  Here is my review which I originally posted on September 2 after seeing the film in a theater:YouTube Preview Image

My family and I went to see the documentary Obama 2016 yesterday.  The documentary is based on Dinesh D’Souza’s book The Roots of Obama’s Rage which posits that the key to understanding Obama is that he is motivated by the same anti-colonial ideology that motivated his Kenyan father.  I disagreed with his thesis, so I was uncertain whether I would enjoy the movie.  Read below for my review of the film.  The usual spoiler alert applies.

We saw the movie in Kankakee, Illinois at the Paramount Theater.  I was surprised that over 200 people were present at the 1:00 PM showing which was astounding for a documentary in a relatively small community like the Kankakee-Bradley-Bourbonnais area.  The crowd was rather a good deal more serious than most movie going crowds.  They were obviously there to learn as well as to be entertained.

Out of curiosity - has the imposition of sales taxes on Amazon merchandise reduced the amount of stuff you buy through Amazon (vs other internet or local businesses)?

Yes it has for us. Seriously considering all other alternatives when an item comes up with a tax on it. Not all do, yet .... all will soon, is my bet.

I just saw this. Outstanding. They need to tone down the obnoxious background music though.

We liked it so much that we bought 12 DVDs at Walmart and handed them out at work and to friends.

OMG!

because it is not being promoted at all (no surprise there).

Someone on Fox News asked about promotion and they said that they did not promote movies that only made 32 million. I am sure that if the movie make 100 million, they still would have ignored the movie. Who knows. I am not sure of another movie that made 32 million and was not promoted.

We went to see it at a theater a few weeks ago, here in OC SoCal.

Show time was 9:45 PM Tuesday, 9/25. Place was empty except for one other couple.
