baumer Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) So just doing some quick calculations, Exp2 is on pace to (if it follows the first and traditional LD extrapolations) do between 8-8.5 mill for the weekend. This should put it at about 67 mill after LD. This puts it on pace exactly for 80 mill. Edited August 28, 2012 by Expendable baumer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friendofnarnia Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Not that surprised. The Obama movie made news over the weekend. Many people probably heard about it for the first time on Sunday and went to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 So the movie is about Obama its bad.But if it was about Romney I think many would cheer on its sucess.Hope the movie breaks out and makes a crazy gross... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I'm impressed. The doc is getting hardcore liberals all riled up, Sasha Stone for example went on a rant this weekend about how it's "not a real documentary" and doesn't deserve to be reviewed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I actually believe this documentary may become the big story of this late August/September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utesfanami Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Usually conservative documentaries aren't very big. Its the liberal documentaries that get big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Even reading some of the reviews on imbd, I still can't tell what the film is about. Is it here to bash Obama, praise him, expose him or exploit him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPink Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Even reading some of the reviews on imbd, I still can't tell what the film is about. Is it here to bash Obama, praise him, expose him or exploit him?Pretty sure it's a fear mongering piece on what 2016 could be like if Obama is re-elected.And to think some people were complaining about Zero Dark Thirty exploiting the election. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 It should shoot down for the rest of the week though since RNC coverage will start. This is an oddball movie to track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 My curiosity was piqued enough to go see 2016 yesterday - far from the "conservative" horror flik that I am sure some want to label it. I was genuinely surprised that the bulk of the movie ran like a commentary on obama's own book dreams from my father / can't fail the directors for using his own words to make a decent documentary that isn't seeking to sensationalize the issues - he didn't even touch on the hot topics of birth and religion. Still get it was lacking a true bite of real prediction but as far as political docs go its as we'll done as anything Michael Moore has made. And it's no surprise that it's making money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Meh. Who cares? I refused to watch left-wing propaganda (Happy to say never wasted my time on Michael Moore's bullshit). Not gonna bother with right-wing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
