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.

It’s a Bomb no matter how you cut it. This movie was marketed badly. ET promoted this thing for the last month and it had so called Oscar buzz. It went down in flames and the rule of thumb as well as history will show that it will not come back up after such an opening.
I am going by the history of averages and it just won’t come back.
Tuesday you have Jack Nickolson and Morgan Freeman opening “The Bucket List” and that will be huge. People are not interested in serious films right now.
