 Re: Jackie YUGE - defeats the mighty LINCOLN Club
Because non mainstream movies get raves all of the time?

 Re: Jackie YUGE - defeats the mighty LINCOLN Club
I think they could have played more on the JFK / American flag / patriotism / Presidency angle. Instead all I remember from the trailers was a grieving older lady without much context (I guess it was assumed) in a lot of dark places.

 Re: Jackie YUGE - defeats the mighty LINCOLN Club
After seeing it... yeah, this won't even do 1/4 of what Lincoln did.

 Re: Jackie YUGE - defeats the mighty LINCOLN Club
It's a bit shocking it's such a huge failure though, no? Obviously now we all know it's not mainstream in the slightest but the buzz was there. People were reposting the trailer on Facebook, a bunch of us thought it would do, at least, $50 million dollars. It won't even make it to $20 million now.

 Re: Jackie YUGE - defeats the mighty LINCOLN Club
This was never happening, but the fact that it won't even reach $20M is pretty embarrassing.

It's seems a problem of distribution only, no? It's PTA seems good.

 Re: Jackie YUGE - defeats the mighty LINCOLN Club
The film is very cold and clinical, not big and sweeping in any way. Becoming a big mainstream hit seems silly in retrospect.
