Dear Readers: In anticipation of chatting on Canto Talk this Thursday (10 am Pacific Time/12 noon Central Time), I have been following the box office returns on the movie we will be discussing during the show: 2016-Obama’s America.
Originally intended for limited release, the documentary was expanded into a nationwide release and earned $6.2 million, finishing at number 8, an impressive jump from number 13 in its seventh weekend in release. It opened in theaters in the middle of July, and as a result of its strong showing in the box offices, was expanded into over 1,000 theaters across the country, “leading all other wide releases with an average of $5,717 a cinema,” observes CNS.
Looking at this, a point struck me with the power of 1000 lightening bolts: President Obama has gotten his wish. Our first celebrity President is now a movie star!!!!
Can’t wait until we get a Presidential President!!!!
