Six Days in August D.O.A.?

[malkie]

I tried to be polite in my review but Six Days is absolutely horrible. It will be critically panned and a box office bomb.

So, should I see it with my spiritual eyes?

Absolutely - along with several family members and close friends, so that Mark Twain would understand and approve.

His two well known quotes about Mormonism are both absolute bangers.

“I could not feel more satisfied and at rest if the entire Whitmer family had testified!”

Such a witty succinct way to mock the absurdity of the witnesses. I absolutely love it.

I think if it doesn't get enough views then the explanation could be that the holiday movies will take priority regardless which will affect the outcome.

I find it odd that, during Conference Weekend, Peterson is desperately trying to detract from it by pushing his film. It’s like he’s in competition with Conference for the memberships attention.

If a movie does well on its opening weekend, that gives its distribution efforts enhanced persuasive power with additional theaters and it assures a movie’s continuing presence in the theaters where it opened. Six Days in August opens on Thursday evening, 10 October. It will continue over the following weekend and for an undetermined number of weeks thereafter. Our window is, we calculate, rather small, because the big holiday movies from Hollywood will begin to be released in not too many weeks from now. (I began seeing Christmas-themed commercials on television already in mid-August.) That will put pressure on theaters to find screens for them, and movies that haven’t done well, or that (as all movies eventually do) have begun to fade, will necessarily surrender screens to the new potential hit films.

I wonder why the film wasn’t released in late August or early September. Wouldn’t an earlier release date have provided a larger “window” before “the big holiday movies” started showing?

To a naïve person like myself, August would seem like the obvious time for release. I'm not sure what makes me think that

The Afore writes that these coming days are "vitally important"! Yes, indeed! I predict that this film is going to be the biggest Mopologetic embarrassment since the "purging" of classic-FARMS from the Maxwell Institute. The concept for the movie is quite possibly the stupidest, most boring idea imaginable. I'm not normally a betting man, but if I were, I'd wager that the movie will not make back even 25% of its budget at the box office. I think that pretty much the totality of its audience has already seen it in the "sneak peaks" that happened last week or whenever it was.

On a sidenote: I see that the Afore has referred to Beto O'Rourke as a "shallow phony." Oh, my, the irony is rich indeed!
