Nolte: Like All Rob Reiner Movies, ‘God and Country’ Flops with $38K Opening
Breitbart ^ | 02/20/2024 | John Notle

Posted on 02/20/2024 12:46:30 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Like all Rob Reiner movies, Rob Reiner’s documentary, God & Country: The Rise Of Christian Nationalism, didn’t just tank at the box office, it was humiliated.

In 85 theaters, Reiner’s bigoted attack on Christians who dared to vote for Donald Trump earned just $38,415 over four days. As one website put it, that’s “averaging $451 [per] theater over four days, which is incredibly low.” If you assume it only had “one showing each day (and likely it had several), it brought in around 112 dollars a day, or ten people a day spread across however many showings.”

What, you’re telling me people don’t want to see this guy’s face on the big screen?

A movie panning “Christian nationalism,” by a fascist pushing leftist nationalism. The irony is thick.

Jesus started Christianity, that is correct, but Jesus was also a Jew, so doesn’t that make all who are Christians Jews by extension?

Rob Reiner’s a bad person - a fat but weaker version of the monster George Soros.

IMDB has it rated at 6.3/10 with no actual user reviews.

I wonder how much the movie cost to make. It’s got to be a far cry from the $38k they raked in so far.

Only thing better would be is he used his money. Not likely.

It is more likely a movie pushing the outlawing of Christianity in America.

Reiner has devoted considerable time and energy to liberal activism.[12]

Reiner is a co-founder of the American Foundation for Equal Rights, which initiated the court challenge against California Proposition 8 that banned same-sex marriage in the state.[13]

In 1998, Reiner chaired the campaign to pass Prop 10, the California Children and Families Initiative, which created First 5 California, a program of early childhood development services, funded by a tax on tobacco products. He served as the first chairman of First 5 California, from 1999 to 2006. His lobbying, particularly as an anti-smoking advocate, prompted his likeness to be used in a satirical role in a South Park episode titled “Butt Out”.[14][15] Reiner came under criticism for campaigning for a ballot measure (Prop 82) to fund state-run preschools while still chair of the First Five Commission, causing him to resign from his position on March 29, 2006. An audit was conducted, and it concluded that the state commission did not violate state law and that it had clear legal authority to conduct its public advertising campaigns related to preschool. Prop 82 failed to win approval, garnering only 39.1% support.

Reiner is a member of the Social Responsibility Task Force, an organization advocating moderation where social issues (such as violence and tobacco use) and the entertainment industry meet. He is also active in environmental issues, and he successfully led the effort to establish California’s Ahmanson Ranch as a state park and wildlife refuge rather than as a commercial real estate development. He introduced Spinal Tap at the London Live Earth concert in July 2007.

Reiner at the LBJ Presidential Library in 2016
Reiner was mentioned as a possible candidate to run against California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2006 but decided not to run for personal reasons. He campaigned extensively for Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore in the 2000 presidential election, and he campaigned in Iowa for Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean just before the 2004 Iowa caucuses. He endorsed Hillary Clinton for president for the 2008 election. In 2015, he donated $10,000 to Correct the Record, a political action committee that supported Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.[16] Since the 2016 election, he has continued to campaign against Donald Trump, calling him racist, sexist, anti-gay, and anti-Semitic. Reiner said that Harvey Weinstein is a “bad guy” but Trump is “also an abuser”.[17]

Reiner serves on the advisory board of the Committee to Investigate Russia.[18][19] He and David Frum launched the site in September 2017 with Morgan Freeman warning people that “We are at war” and that Russia has attacked the United States.[19] Others on the committee’s advisory board at the time of launch included James Clapper, Max Boot, Charles Sykes, and Norman Ornstein.[19][20] Additionally, in early November 2020, the advisory board included Evelyn Farkas, Michael Hayden, Michael Morrell, Leon Panetta, and Clint Watts.[21]

Reiner endorsed Joe Biden for president for the 2020 election.[22]

In June 2021, Reiner said that he was working on a 10- to 13-episode TV project covering the relationship between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump. The project, he said, would cover the leaders’ childhoods up until the point where their lives cross. Reiner said he is working with writer Ward Parry on the project, which he is calling The Spy and the Asset.
