"An American Carol" to Be Just as Successful as "Half Hour News Hour"

POSTED BY: Dennis DiClaudio

Ha ha! I'll bet David Zucker is having a nice big laugh at Bill Maher's expense right now.

His brand new movie -- the, by all accounts, brilliant piece conservative cinema merde, An American Carol -- went head to head with Maher's also-just-opening anti-religious-dogma Religulous. And it beat it at the box office by a whole $310,000.

And it was only showing on 3.26 times as many screens!

There's a lesson to be learned here: Conservatives are always funny.

  1. @DaveW: I was around thirteen when I saw Mason on Broadway. He was banned from my house (check out the Mason post). If you ever saw the split-screen scene in Annie Hall, umm... that capsulizes Chez Cube's. Yom Kippur is totally a good deal for us. You don't eat for a day, pray a bit, then eat lox and bagels, and are forgiven. What a deal baby. Insofar as water-boarding, me thinks my Mom's guilt trips are far more arduous. But, she's the best.

  2. Yeesh, Cube. Jackie Mason for your Bar-Mitzvah, the Zapruder film on your birthdays. What did you do for Purim, water boarding? I hate to even imagine what Yom Kippur was like Chez Cube.

  3. Look to the left. Look to the right. Ruff! Ruff! Beverly Hills Chihuahua pooped all over Maher and Zucker. This country has not gone to the dogmas.

    *On an unrelated matter, it was Mother Cube's birthday today. Some mourn the death of Anwar Al Sadat, but I say hi Mom and happy birthday from your foul mouthed son. Too bad you still can't surf the web. I love you despite your insistence on an IBM Selectric. I don't know what the deal is with my icy family and assassination anniversaries. Every year on my birthday I get to see fabulous reruns of the Zapruder film.
