It was up in the air before, but now I’m ready to stake my claim that she won’t run. Why? She was waiting on the public reaction to this movie before deciding, and it basically confirms her worst fears. I mean after the opening weekend, only a few thousand Americans saw it and she needs to convert literally millions of us.
According to IMDB pro, which I just checked, the movie played to an average of 52 people per showing on the first weekend, 15 per showing on the second. With a revenue of about $100,000 even if there was NO “P&A” (Bannon says there was no advertising, but even getting to showings and getting stuff out by word of mouth costs money), the movie cost $1m. So it will have to have a supercharged ppv and DVD sale to break even, let alone make money. “Atlas Shrugged,” also a disappointment, made back about half of its production costs
I doubt you know anything about her life, much less her decision to run. She has millions of supporters, and this movie is no measure of her eventual chances of success.
I, like many others on this board, have been saving our dimes for her run, and I'll take any bets you wish to make. It will make my "war chest" larger. I know how to bundle, and I'll take your money and add it to the $43k I have already line up.
Do you feel lucky?
