Dead on arrival, as expected...

“13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi” opened with an estimated $19.6 million domestically, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “American Sniper,” which opened the same weekend a year prior, pulled in a stunning $107.2 million, while “Lone Survivor” opened to $37 million in early January 2014.

For Michael Bay, this was the worst opening for one of his movies in a decade, and it’s on pace to lose money.

It probably doesn’t help that the reviews are quite bad. Salon’s Simon Maloy wrote this morning:
Michael Bay’s “13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi” is a bad movie. And I’m not just talking about the filmmaking, which is bad in the way that most Michael Bay movies are bad – it’s loaded up with frenetic camera work, neck-snapping edits that make it impossible to follow the action, and gratuitous war porn. […]

What makes “13 Hours” especially terrible is the way it crassly exploits the politics surrounding Benghazi. It’s not possible to make a movie about Benghazi that doesn’t carry any political significance, given the right’s enduring obsession with the attacks. But Bay’s film unsubtly pokes at every conspiracy about Benghazi while declaring itself a “true story.”
The movie’s fans probably won’t want to hear this, but the former CIA chief in Benghazi says “13 Hours” is largely a work of fiction, rehashing ideas that have already been discredited."
GOP activism does little to boost Benghazi movie
 
Well.....I'm sure most Hollywood movies about Bush era political hot topics were 100% accurate.

The truth was never lost on you, now was it my beloved Socialist foot soldier?

Fuck off, loser.

The truth doesn't do you any goddamned good, which is why you don't deal in it.

I'm so honored. You put my quote on your sig line.

No context of course.

But yes. Tyrants always restrict guns from their enemies. In context of our Nazi conversation.

The fact that we don't want ISIS to have weapons....doesn't make us Nazis.

It's pathetic you tried to make it sound like that....OR you truly believe that.
 
None of these propaganda films have much affect or get many eyeballs. Atlas Shrugged bombed. The movie about the two teachers bucking the union failed miserably.

Everyone, including you, likes gun control for their enemies. And that is perfectly in context, your words.

If guns are for protection, and equal freedom, then you should have no problems with ISIS having them.

But but but this was the end of Hillary, or Obama, or Lois Learner or someone else. They were sure of it. Cereal Killer assured me, just last Friday.

By your logic felons should own guns. None of us on the right want felons owning guns.

Yes. If I could disarm my enemies of course I would. Starting with you. I'll allow you to keep your pea shooter.... for now.

Fuckin' Nazi.. Damn Fascist. Goddamned Gun Control Freak and Freedom Hater.

He wants to deny me my "protection", and that of ISIS...
 
Its a movie dumbass. No one expects it to be 100% accurate.

Go paint your house idiot.
 
I'm sure the movie will be a success despite your opinion.

Michael Bay puts out some damned fine action movies.

Carry on dumbass.
