[Captain Peter Blood]

It was the theme. People want a comedy or pure escapism. This movie was neither and that is why it bombed at this time of the year.

Theme might play into, also a crowded box office (5 wide opens Friday with 3 more coming Tuesday), I’m sure the way conservatives knee jerked on it didn’t help. The good news for the movie is that while it didn’t do well it was #2 of the new releases, though #4 over all.
