"Can I watch TV?" "Ain't got one."

here’s a bit of disconcerting observation for you...
the people who saw Hollywood chihuahua have the power to cancel out your well-informed vote in spades...
Any single individual who chooses a different candidate has the power to “cancel out” my vote. Cebu, that’s democracy. I’ll vote for the candidates I prefer anyway.
We live in Vermont, and none of the theaters near us are showing it. In fact, there is apparently only one theater in this half of the state, or maybe the whole state, that is showing it. I’m trying to persuade some of my family to get together, drive over to that theater about an hour from here, see the movie and have some dinner.
I agree with your statement from the perspective of a healthy mind, but I sincerely believe Movies by the likes of Micheal Moore are viewed in en mass by liberals because they need the validation of a crowd of like minds agreeing at the object of their contempt.
I don’t sense that need from grounded conservatives.
We drove an hour and a half to Quincy, IL, to see “Star Wars” on my 11th birthday.
I think you’re right, and also that liberals don’t have anything more interesting to do. We spent yesterday afternoon strolling around yard sales in Lake Park with my parents. DP took one of the dragons, and they were quite a hit!
That was my impression of it as well. I thought is was watchable, but definitely not something I would tell people to go out of their way to see. The only time I could ever see myself watching it again is if it is on cable sometime in the future and there is nothing else on. In my opinion, it was a very concept but it could have been much, much better.
I teared up on this scene. Laughing one minute, teary the next.The mark of good comedy work.
Here in liberal Vermont, there were only about 25 people in a 150 seat theater.
We were mostly conservatives, and enjoyed laughing our butts off together. I loved the Taliban and AL Qaida recruting segments , with correct and incorrect demonstrations on how to blow yourself up.
The problem is, $29 mil worth of sheeple didn't--BHC looks incredibly stupid--sheesh!
I agree with the writer. I didn't care for the slapstick and the silliness, but I loved its PRO AMERICA presentation and it not being politically correct.
I have boycotted Hollywood for years but did drive 45 minutes to see this movie yesterday and I'm glad I did!
I was hoping it would do a lot better than 9th!
But did he sit through the end of the credits? We did.
Yes, there is a “final scene.” ;-)
Beverly Hills Chihuahua? Personally, I find Pugs more entertaining.
Not a bad showing for a film I have not seen a promo for around here. Just on the radio during Hannity.
We weren’t able to go this weekend either. Hopefully, next.
I don’t watch tv, don’t have one. Don’t buy newspapers either. I definitely don’t goto the movies, haven’t done so in years and I rarely rent dvd’s. Last one I saw was the patriot.
The internet is my choice of reading and entertainment.
My husband and I saw American Carol this weekend twice. My husband literally fell in the floor during the ACLU scene!
**I was hoping it would do a lot better than 9th!**
Me too, BUT .. it came in in the Top 10 (as a retired musician, that was GOOD)
And it still beat out Mahar’s TRIPE!
Conservatives don’t have BUS loads of RENT A MOB to fill the theaters, like the Left fills their “Protests”
Would’ve loved to have gone but it isn’t anywhere near here to see.
"Can I watch TV?" "Ain't got one."
It is not showing anywhere near us.
