There's been tremdous interest by the public in the box office fate of Oliver Stone's W.

Oh really? I must have missed that!

Oh my! And here I was thinking the American people just HATED W!

If it hadn’t been for the theaters handing out ‘W’ tickets to customers who were seeing other movies it would have tanked in the first week!

Good. I figured this would happen. Another example of the left’s hate backfiring on them.

The author of the article spelled it tremdous, not paltz.

Dang I was hoping for Dubya commanding a tank division in front of Stone.

Was ACORN doing that?

I had not heard that, did that really happen?

The promoted the hell out of it. Unfortunately, the most damage this film will do is overseas. Where does Hollywood think the world gets their negative ideas about America. FROM THEM. Hollywood does more harm in one year than GWBush could have done in a lifetime.

GW Bush is SO unpopular that people didn't want to even see him lampooned. (liberal spin)

They handed out free tickets to ‘W’?
How sad.
The movie will probably make a profit from overseas revenues.
My local movie theatre didn’t even show ‘W’, I’m happy to report.
But ‘Fireproof’ is still on. (which is a wholesome movie with a powerful positive message.)
I watched ‘American Carol’ a few weeks ago just to support the film and make a stand. It was silly, but I enjoyed to see liberals exposed in a humorous way.
