"How did an American Carol do?"

It's production budget was $20-million. Estimated domestic total as of October 23rd was only $6,900,000. Looks like it did not recoup it's production costs [yet]. I do plan on buying the DVD.

The rule of thumb in 'the business' is that break-even comes at three times production costs. So, AC is about 53 million below break-even at the moment. Hopefully it'll sell lots of DVD's, because there's virtually no foreign market for it.
