Benghazi film flops at the box office

[Moonglow]

Now ever'body'll want to see it on Netflix...

... or DVD.

The popcorn and soda is cheaper there...

Yes the movie didn't make as much as Star Wars so it must all be fiction and Star Wars is the true story

Libs just don't want to see it because they run from the truth.

Oh, it's liberals who run from the truth. Like whose fault is Iraq? Like why didn't the deficit creating Bush tax cuts work? Like Republicans helping BP over the US? Like Republicans holding millions of unemployed hostage so they could blackmail Obama? All those disasters and the GOP takes responsibility for nothing. Except taking out Bin Laden. The guy they let go and stopped looking for. Too rich.

Yeah. Just like you run from this subject straight to Buuuuuuusssh.

So fuck off .

Paramount released the first trailer for Michael Bay’s upcoming film 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi on Tuesday.


The movie, based on Mitchell Zuckoff’s 2014 book 13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi, tells the story of the September 11, 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya in which four Americans–U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, U.S. Foreign Service’s Sean Smith and CIA contractors Glen Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods – were killed by Islamist terrorists.


Bay is directing the film from a script by Chuck Hogan (FX’s The Strain). James Badge Dale, John Krasinski, Pablo Schreiber, Toby Stephens, David Denman, Max Martini, and Dominic Fumusa star.

The trailer conveys a strong sense of dread before the classic Bay-inspired action kicks in.

“When everything went wrong, six men had the courage to do what was right,” the text in the trailer reads.

With a budget reportedly in the range of $30-$40 million, Bay is working on 13 Hours with a lot less money than he usually gets to play with on blockbuster films like Transformers. Here’s hoping the result is a return to form for Bay and a tight, focused action film that honors the memories of the American heroes who sacrificed their lives on that day.

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi hits theaters January 15.

.....
That $50 million was an estimate only, and even that half of what you claimed.

Gross as of the 21st-
13 Hours:
The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

Domestic Total as of Jan. 21, 2016:$23,733,429

It is not a flop. Only in your warped imagination

Once again, your sources fail you. The movie budget was $40 million and they made half of that in its first weekend. And shown at 1000 less theaters than the top 3. No flop. Give it up.

Wrong, as usual. You just can't stand it, it is a success, thus once again, you are caught lying about it.

Coming in #4 domestically, Michael Bay’s patriotic themed 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi opened to an estimated $20-M from 2,389 theaters.


Not too shabby.

Oh that's shabby. Believe it.

When a movie costs a hundred million and takes in 25 million, it's a fucking flop.

The film made $900,000 from 1,995 theaters during its Thursday previews and $16.2 million in its opening weekend, finishing fourth at the box office.
Budget $50 million.

I only guess at the budget before. Now I know.

It's a flop.
