So...no roller derby in this movie.

[rightwingcrazy]

The entertainment market is supersaturated with hatred of all things deemed conservative. To be profitable, you have to figure out a way to stand out.

[cuban leaf]

Ha. I noticed “a beautiful day in the neighborhood” ain’t doin’ so hot either.

[dp0622]

Wow what a disaster.

First Catsastrophe and now this.

Feel good news :)

[rbg81]

You’ll never see a similar film about the antics of Matt Lauer at NBC.

[rstrahan]

No film has ever made a ‘profit’, even blockbusters. IRS esoteric rules allow for the effective write-off of all profit. That is why actors now want a share of the gross as opposed to a piece of the profits.

[nuconvert]

never heard of the movie

[KarlInOhio]

I totally misread the headline. My first reading was Film About (Fox News Struggling to Survive) and I imagined someone had made an indie film where Fox was falling apart and having to beg for money. The actual is (Film About Fox News) Struggling to Survive. Good. It looked like a political hatchet job that Hollywood would never do about CNN or MSNBC.

I didn’t even care enough to download the Oscar screener for free on Usenet.

Did Charlize bleed from her..?

[Bratch]

The only way the movie would be profitable.

[Rummyfan]

No one wants to see this. People cannot get too worked up about Megan Kelly’s travails that resulted in a multimillion dollar reward for her. Now a flick about Harvey Weinstein, I might be interested in.

It has received three Academy Award nominations.

Now there's three reasons to avoid it.

[GingisK]

“Bombshell”, synonym for “ho hum”.

[Zathras]

No one either side of the fence cares about Faux or Meygan Kelly

[riverdawg]

Another “bombshell” is “Where’s My Roy Cohn?,” which peaked at the theater box offices at a whopping $705,000. Released in September, it has already gone to video/streaming. Apparently, even the left-wing nut jobs ignored it.

[Vision]

When the Godless lose angels get their wings.

[Sans-Culotte]

Just because a film flops does not mean it is necessarily a bad film. However, this dud should have been made for HBO. Even if it had been a good film, it was not going to fill any theaters. There are not enough Fox News haters to put this film in the black.
