Right-Wing Documentary '2016: Obama's America' Steals Box-Office Show
thewrap.com ^ | 8/26/12

conservative documentary “2016: Obama’s America” stole the show from Sly Stallone’s bad-ass geezers and three opening films at the weekend box office, on its way to an estimated $6.2 million total for the three days.

The $5,940 per-screen average posted by "2016: Obama's America" was easily the best among films playing widely. "Expendables 2" stayed on top in its second week with $13.2 million averaging $3,950 from 3,355 theaters.

The documentary purports to tell what things will be like should the president be re-elected. Distributor Rocky Mountain Pictures expanded it into 1,091 theaters (from 169 last week) just in time to cash in on the buzz surrounding the Republican National Convention.

Great movie. Fact based. No bashing. Very informative.

It served to focus my understanding of Obama and provided a clear and compelling picture of the strategy behind his anti-American governance.

saw it, great protrayal of a man who never took American History or Civics so he thinks he is beyond the law we all live by.

Retribution is at hand.

LOL! Not one bit of ‘right wing’ anything in that movie. Progressive, socialist, communist, fascist and Marxist but right wing? Nope!

Saw it today with the wife. She was visibly shaken by what she saw.

Everyone needs to see this film.

It was a great movie, saw it last night, what surprised me the most was how non-partisan the movie really was, just a great fact based documentary. It doesn’t push the viewer to hate or love Obama, it just lays out in undeniable fashion the influences on him that lead to his ideologies. After watching it I am in shock as to how the American people let somebody like him get in office.

The media devoted more resources to investigating Joe the plumber's trade license and the DNA of Palin's Down Syndrome child than they did to the sordid history of Baraq Obama.

Watched it today and it is an amazing movie. He puts the story together very well. His brother George is a shining star.

Pray for America

I am so glad this came out before BO’s Hollywood-fellating movie that is coming out just before the election.

The numbers are high for this movie honestly. Watch for inflated numbers for BOs movie as libs will buy their tickets by the dozens online and not even go. I bet the theaters after the initial release will be empty. Everyone already knows what an empty suit looks like and acts like, no one needs to waste two hours of their time for that crap.

The Los Angeles Times (reliable supporter of BO) today (8/26/2012) claims the movie is doing well because it is a “slow weekend.”

They're probably puking into their buttery buckets as they feel the shadows descending on their perky teleprompter prince.
