6. Just saw it for the first time.
Waited until the crowds went down. Still had a quarter full house at a matinee at a theatre that is showing it on two screens, allowing a performance to start every 1 1/2 hours.

It was even stronger than I expected. I was shaking with anger when I left the theatre. When something can get this 57yr old white man that PO'd, well, I think I'm ready to do whatever has to be done to reclaim my country.

7. I was shocked it played in my small GOP town
and delighted. I saw it in a larger town near here, never ever expecting it to play here...its made so much money, I guess the theater owners said what the hell! and Im so delighted its here.
Wake up call for this community!

8. My liberal mamma still hasn't seen it yet
She's taking a friend with her to FINALLY see it tomorrow. I personally think she's insane for waiting so long but she's been busy. I can't wait to discuss it with her tomorrow night. I imagine there are others out there like her...planning on seeing it but just hasn't had the time lately.

10. How ...........nice.......
Calling your liberal mom "insane" because she waited longer than you thought she "should" because she was busy.

Way to be judgemental.

11. how....nice yourself
Not that it's really any of your business, but my mother is one of my best friends. I told her to her face I thought she was "insane" for not seeing the movie yet, but she has a sense of humor and no sticks up her ass so she knew instantly I was kidding around.

feel free to keep your judgements and your :eyes: to yourself. If this isn't possible, then just put me on ignore from now on.

12. You and your mom
Sounds to me as if you have a relationship with your mother to be envied. I hope you post some of your conversation with her.

I would so much like to talk to my mother about the movie but she is dead (six years). I miss her so. She was very astute about politics and I wish I could she were here to share her insight.

I will look forward to reading what your mother says.

You are a good daughter. Cherish each day with your mother while she is still with you.

13. Calling names is such a great way to win friends and influence voters
"no sticks up the ass"...... great line........ guess that should be broadcast on the floor of the Senate, too, eh?

Uniter. Or. Divider.

You choose.

17. Curves of Receipts predict X final dollars?
The "drop off" curves for all other films, their box receipts, ought to predict the eventual top total for this film.

compare too , this curve with similar curves... where do they end up? 500,000,000?

18. More like 125 million to 160 million domestically.
It's too early to predict what the worldwide take will be.
