Like all Rob Reiner movies, Rob Reiner’s documentary, God & Country: The Rise Of Christian Nationalism, didn’t just tank at the box office, it was humiliated.
In 85 theaters, Reiner’s bigoted attack on Christians who dared to vote for Donald Trump earned just $38,415 over four days. As one website put it, that’s “averaging $451 [per] theater over four days, which is incredibly low.” If you assume it only had “one showing each day (and likely it had several), it brought in around 112 dollars a day, or ten people a day spread across however many showings.”
What, you’re telling me people don’t want to see this guy’s face

If it's like most Hollywood movies, it will always be a money-loser. But Reiner will make millions.
As it was explained to me, all the "profits" of the movie are eaten up in production costs. You know, a set that actually cost $100 to make gets billed to the picture for $9,800. And any smart actor (or agent) doesn't have his contract share in the profits, but a share of the gross. A movie that brings in $100 million, well, if your contract calls for 2% of the gross, that's $2 million.
Basically, movies are all financed like the guys in "The Producers."

Meathead WAS a notably great director. Spinal Tap, The Princess Bride, Stand By Me, When Harry Met Sally, Misery, A Few Good Men, these defined by young adulthood and were great films, anyone who says otherwise is simply inconceivable. But he like so many didn't stay in his lane and outpaced his brain's capacity. A lesson.. just because your brain excels at one thing doesn't mean it excels at all things. Stay in you lane Meathead. Obviously you don't know as much as you think you do.

Why doesn’t he just give up? No one cares what this fool thinks.

Thanks for reminding me how great Rob Reiner's mother was in "When Harry Met Sally." Other than that, Reiner himself was never as important as his father was in Your Show of Shows.

Time to retire the 'Meathead of the Year' trophy, and park it with Slob Slimer.

Yes, well said #2. All of those movies are great, and I have all of them on VHS. He should've just kept on doing that and it would've been all good. But he didn't so he will always be a Meathead. I hope that everything he does flops like this did from now on.

Meathead - it's not just a role, it's a lifestyle choice.

Rob, aka, "Meat Head" Reiner, nothing but a piece of human trash. The man is a walking septic tank. You don't get any lower than this moron. It's what drugs does to the brain and it ain't pretty. Got it.

Don’t you just love karma? God is trying to tell you something, Meathead. Maybe you should quit being an atheist and listen to him.

Rotten, stinking, obnoxious, stupid Reiner....making another stinker of a "movie", actually just a screed.
I keep hoping to read his obit so I don't ever have to read about his obnoxious, stupid bloviations again.
Being a Christian and a nationalist, I'd probably be one of his hated types. And I'm proud of both titles, not going to change either of them. I spit in the general direction of this punk.

I'd like to know where these 85 theaters, who thought showing this "documentary" was a good idea, are.

that's still too much money to give the Yiddish boy who has never "worked" a day in his, who was never "funny" and has the personality of a dedicated card carrying communist, of which he is only one out of a whole gaggle of commies in H'wood
