That’s NOT true..I talked to people online who went to the Orange, CA theater and said it was sold out..depends on what time though
Update II by Nicole:
Here’s a nice round-up of The Undefeated tweets put together by Josh Painter over at Texans for Sarah Palin:
“MSM – Where are the ‘empty theaters’ now?”
*
How well is The Undefeated doing on its opening day? If the past hour’s Twitter traffic is any indication, not bad:
Theater manager in Phoenix reports “Only Harry Potter beating ‘The Undefeated’…
Atlanta, GA ‘The Undefeated’ is Number 1 in theater out performering ‘Transformers’…
4pm showing of ‘The Undefeated’ ends with five minute standing ovation in Atlanta!
Atlanta – 7pm showing of ‘The Undefeated’ sold out 3 hours in advance!
“The #Undefeated” 4pm showing in #OrangeCounty is packed full except for the “stiff neck seats” that nobody wants ever.
The Undefeated is Number 1 in #Atlanta #GA out performing Transformers
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.
Kenesaw GA 3 showings sold out!!
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?!?
Full House at Universal Cineplex Orlando, FL for ‘The Undefeated’!
MSM – Where are the “empty theaters” now?
just got back from the movie. My 3 skeptics will now be a part of Sarah’s Army.
People around me are saying, “WOW” about the frivolous ethics complaints. They didn’t know.
Houston showing is almost full except for the lower 2 rows. ;-)
Audience applauding Sarah’s inaugural address in #Undefeated in Kennesaw!
Drove 8 Hours To See The #Undefeated! Very Well Made, Exhilarating & Inspirational
Amazing! People in this theater had NO idea about ethics complaints & why she resigned! They do now!
Update II by Whitney: California Organize4Palin coordinator notes that both the 4 PM and 7 PM showings in Orange County were sold out.
And everybody knows it.
Is the theater off the 405?
wtf? i just don’t believe the liberal media anymore.
It’s The Atlantic. The Enquirer has more believable writing.
Comments at the link are atrocious.
I seem to recall a similar situation a few weeks before Palin’s book came out... there was some reporter who wrote about what a huge bomb the book was proving to be. An all-out financial disaster for the publisher, etc. Went on tv, spreading this line. Obviously tryng to ‘create’ this narrative, for the willing and corrupt media to broadcast, which they dutifully did. However, they got swamped over by facts and reality, when the book proved a blockbuster.
The corruption in the media truly knows no bounds. You can’t believe a word they report.
Oh, no, “Conor Friedersdorf” again! Somebody posted something of his about a week ago, but this piece is even
more pathetic.His writing is just as annoying as his name.
To his “credit” (I guess) he mentions,but only once,that this screening was at midnight.He doesn’t follow up on this fact, nor attempt to put it into perspective or explain it. He was provided his “hook” for the story, and he went with it.No one should be expected to show up at midnight for ANYTHING, unless you’re a Harry Potter drone, or willing to wait outdoors for the new release of the IPhone, or whatever new gizmo people camp out the night before to get. Once upon a time, the Atlantic, like Esquire and the New Yorker, were magazines worth reading.NOW, they publish tripe like this that substitutes for “journalism”: but is actually snide and snarky fodder for people like Jon Stewart and Bill Maher.
Are there any Palin volunteers at these shows, getting people to sign up to volunteer for Palin, or just to sign up on the mailing list. Especially in Iowa. If I’m a strong Palin supporter, I’m going to want to have people at the Ames movie theatre, or the Des Moines movie theatre, gathering this info, and talking to them about the Ames Straw Poll.
The article is pure disinformation.
Partisan jello.
This poster bought tickets in advance for the first showing at this very same theater. Asked for the first showing, which was according to the ticket window at 10:15 AM, not 12:01.
Plenty of people were there, and at the end there was a literal ovation.
I am in Orange County - what theater is it at?
Gamechanger ping.
AFTER-ACTION REPORT: The Undefeated! Orange, CA
July 15, 2011 | SoConPubbie
Posted on Saturday, July 16, 2011 12:09:41 AM by SoConPubbieWife and I joined approximately
150+-300+- conservatives in the 7:00 showing of The Undefeated
at the AMC Theater in Orange, CA...-- snip --
...There was an Organize4Palin "after party" at the El Torito in the Mall.
40+
60+- people showed up, including Tammy Bruce...-- snip --
From twitter.com/#!/ThomasSSchmitz:
YouTube:You cannot SEE all of us at the "after party" in this video...
"The Undefeated" @ Orange, CA "after party" says "RUN, SARAH, RUN! [7/15/11]"... but you can certainly HEAR us
The hate mongers are out at the Internet Movie Data base and more likely than not have been stuffing the ballot box with bad reviews. I bet only a handful of those who give it a single star even saw the movie.
