2000 Mulesis a conspiracists wet dream.  Mind you it is all lies and misinformation, but I've found most the Conspiracy Theorists, as of late have all been Trumpers, eat this fecal matter with both hands.  It's a warming lie that makes them feel vindicated for their feelings.

They lost fair and square and can't believe it because they cheated and still lost.

Like Atlas Shrugged (parts 1, 2, 3a, 3b, etc) it will probably be on Prime at some point, for those who want to avoid the Covid, Mumps, Polio, Strep crowds at the movie theater.

For one, geotracking data isn't accurate enough to pinpoint whether someone is at the precise location of a drop box or simply in the vicinity of one.

Exactly. I do the Google Local Guides thing, leave reviews on places, etc., so I get the "How was 'X'?" things all of the time. A few times a week I get them popping up for places I sometimes just drove past. It's pretty good, but not perfect. And a business is a larger target than a ballot box.

Before we all start sucking each other's dicks, To The End, the AOC climate change movie, has made $16,000. Total.

And that has a larger demographic, since it's about real things in the world that are actually happening. The moral here is that your political documentary needs to have FAR more punch than a normal one.

Yeah but, she does not have two dozen national conservative propaganda outlets pushing her movie or even mentioning climate change, well unless they are talking about how climate change is a liberal hoax to make companies go bankrupt.

Toward the end of 2000 Mules, director Dinesh D'Souza convenes an Arthurian round table of conservative media dorks to speculate about the earth-shattering impact the film would have.

If you have to cut that in at the end, your movie sucks.

God.  It must have sucked to be his editor.

When you look at all the recent voter fraud, there's a Democrat or two, but the rest are Republican.

And yet it's Republicans who stomp and piss all the time about this.

It's fascinating to watch.

As for DeSouza and all his noise, I'd imagine his work is subpar for even Redbox outside a rural convenience store.

A baby crying excited the republican base to vote him in a president. Hard to ignore crying babies after that.

1,465,412/415= a respectable studio average of 3,531
Well respectable if it was only in theaters for one week
Site I got the numbers from doesn't say how long its run was
Be right back
OMG it was in theaters for 30 weeks
Source box office mojo
And the opening weekend was 751,755
Meaning it was still in theaters when it was making  less than it cost to run the film
How is that not corporate welfare?
