Al Gore Bombs At the Box Office!

AlBore's global warming movie, "An Inconvenient Truth," is still being lauded by critics as fantastic, and , "Not only are superheros big right now, but global warming is really hot as well."

The Los Angeles based paper, The Mercury Times, claimed that the film did well at the box office as well over it's opening weekend...

But there seems to be another "inconvenient truth."

AlBore's movie did not even make the top ten, and grossed a mere $365,787 from Friday to Monday. I suppose that's good as far as Power Point presentations go, but for Hollywood... Not so great.

The top ten box office takes:

1. ``X-Men: The Last Stand,'' $120.1 million.

2. ``The Da Vinci Code,'' 43 million.

3. ``Over the Hedge,'' $35.3 million

4. ``Mission: Impossible III,'' $8.6 million.

5. ``Poseidon,'' $7 million.

6. ``RV,'' $5.3 million

7. ``See No Evil,'' $3.2 million

8. ``Just My Luck,'' $2.3 million.

9. ``United 93,'' $1.1 million.

10. ``An American Haunting,'' $936,680.

I could barely sit through it when it was free on my T.V.; I can't imagine paying money to hear an Al Gore speech!
