An American Carol

[GeraldFord]

Looks like it was a major flop.

It beat out Bill Maher's turd. 

Religulous had an opening weekend take of $3.5 million from an early October 1 release in LA and NY and also a limited 502 theater release, averaging $6,972 per theater making it #10 in the box office that weekend. Its per-screen receipts were almost thrice those of its diametrically opposite rival, the politically conservative "An American Carol",[13] which actually edged out Religulous to finish at #9 over the same weekend, but had a per theater average of only $2,325.[14] Only the #1 movie, "Beverly Hills Chihuahua", at $9,020, had a higher per-sceen average than "Religulous".

^^^Okay, I'll give you that but nonetheless, Mayer's film still flopped and is still a turd.

How do u consider that flopping when it made 3.5 million in limited release?

Per theater average, that is really good.

Once it opens nationwide to more theaters, it will pull in more.

plus, Its not like it cost a ton of money to make it. I bet they did it on less than 5 million.
