The Expendables 2 Wins Weekend Box Office; Anti-Obama Doc Lands in Top 10

BOX OFFICE

(Lionsgate)

The Expendables 2 has won a weak, tightly packed box office this weekend.

Sylvester Stallone’s band of mostly aging action heroes took the top spot with $13.5 million.

That was good enough to beat second place finisher The Bourne Legacy, which earned $9.2 million.

ParaNorman came in third with $8.5 million.

The Campaign and The Dark Knight Rises jockeyed for fourth and fifth places with $7.4 million and $7.1 million, respectively.

Rounding out the Top 10 were The Odd Life of Timothy Green Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s new bike messenger thriller Premium Rush ($6.3 million), the anti-Barack doc 2016: Obama’s America ($6.2million), middle-aged romance Hope Springs ($6 million), and car chase comedy Hit and Run ($4.5 million).

Ashley Greene’s more limited new horror release The Apparition earned $3 million.

    @Cowboy Cosmonopolis is an indy flick so it’s not gonna be huge at the box office. in it’s week and two weekends at the box office it has made 54.31% of what Mr & Mrs Bridge did on it’s highest grossing weekend in March 1991 which was 823,000 to finish it’s 4 month run with just under 8.000.000 at the box office and ticket prices have increased 53% since then and Mr & Mrs Bridge though it received major award nominations finished 109th for films released in 1990 while Cosmonopolis will finish worse for 2012. it’s not like Pattinson ever has to work again if he invests his money form Twilight correctly

    I don’t know but it seems like there are anti-Obama people here at Gossip Cop. Always something negative about Obama and positive about his opponent.

    Seems like the studios were nice enough to release these mutts, in to theaters and not go directly too DVD ,like most of these titles if not all of them, deserve! I mean is there any Adam Sandler and his jovial band of painfully unfunny usual suspects who so dominate these direct too DVD releases

    Your right, you don’t know. This site is just as pro obama as the others. Youre just mad cuz the truth about that Socialist POS is coming out and people are finally opening their eyes.

    I can see you name is a smoke and mirrors.I would think having a name like knowledge is power would mean more but the truth is you are just as clueless as so many others.I am so tired of people like you who want to blame one man for the shape america is in.This mess didn’t begin with and it won’t end with him.Every other president has played a part.This isn’t a since Obama came into office problem it is centuries and centuries old.You give all the rest a free pass on their screw jobs and expect this one to be the blame for everything that is wrong.The war didn’t start with him.He didn’t send our brave troops over seas over bogus claims.He didn’t didn’t start the decline of american factories or the job market by sending work overseas.He didn’t start or cause any of these thing.He didn’t cause the real estate market to bottom out,he also didn’t spend his four years giving the rich tax breaks to make them richer.I am not naive enough to think he hasn’t made his fair of mistakes but I am smart enough to know that all the problems he is being tagged with don’t fall on his doorstep.People act like they were jet setting and living high and mighty before Obama got into office.If you had it like that then and don’t know that is not his fault that would fall at your doorstep for living outside your means and not knowing how to manage your money.It is also easier to blame Obama than to spread the blame around the way it is supposed to.If you did that you and many others might have to admit you don’t know jack crap and start looking at the others put into office(like the ones that are supposed to representing your state and realize they are doing their jobs). Every president and congress member past and present have contributed to the decline of america.I don’t know what made people think Obama could go in and clean up not only the eight years but centuries and centuries of bad decisions and neglect.Then you have the others and for all I know you might be one of them who just plain and simple don’t like Obama not because of what he has or hasn’t done but because of who he is and what he represents.Alot of people won’t just come out and say they don’t like him because of their backwood views.For alot of people don’t like Obama because in their mind he doesn’t know his place and he has no right to be running their country(a country that was stolen and never belonged to them in the first place).I almost hope he doesn’t get back into office and someone else does because the Bi**hing and moaning won’t change just the name associated with it because you see nobody is going to get into office and please you or I before they please themselves.I for one will be smiling know that the people like you are still unhappy and will finally have to admit (even if it is only to yourself) that Obama was not the problem.The problems will still exist because they run deeper than Obama.

    Your reply was too long for me to bother to read since the beginning was senseless. I did catch the living beyond my means. Actually I’ve never done that. Ive worked for everything I have and Ive worked hard.
    If you had any sense you would read up on what shaped Obamas political philosophy. Maybe get an understanding of socialism.
    Because Ive worked hard does not mean I want to “redistribute my wealth” for people such as yourself who seem to want to suck off the teat of the government for the rest of your life.
    What made people think Obama could go in and clean it up???? HE FREAKING SAID HE WOULD! In fact he said he expected to be a one termer if he didnt. Another LIE.

    It seems to me your comment about “backwood views” refers to racism. That in itself tells me your a moron.

    Tell me, If you vote for a person based on the color of their skin, does that not make you a racist???? Many people voted for him because they wanted to prove they weren’t racist. MAJOR FAIL, they voted for someone based on the color of their skin which makes them a RACIST.

    So if you didnt vote for him because of the color of his skin, they you voted for him because of his political philosophy which is SOCIALIST.

    SO WHICH ARE YOU???? A RACIST OR A SOCIALIST???

    As far as my nic… Knowledge is power and based on your comment I would suggest you spend some time doing research instead of spewing the same old liberal lies youve been programmed to spew.

  • legacyleader

    YOU CAN’T EVEN SPELL AND YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT SOCIALISM IS. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. YOU HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE. CHANGE YOUR NAME. YOU’RE BY THE WAY. THERE’S A DIFFERENCE, DUMBASS.

  • LEGACYLEADER

    DO DRIVE ON PUBLIC ROADS? DO YOU ONLY TAKE MEDS THAT HAVE BEEN CERTIFIED BY THE FDA? DO YOU EAT FOOD FROM A GROCERY STORE? YOU’RE A SOCIALIST.
    NO? YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT SOCIALISM IS. YOU HIDE BEHIND A FACADE OF ANONYMITY. I’LL WAIT HERE WHILE YOU GOOGLE WHAT THAT IS. MAYBE FOX NEWS WILL HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU. YOU LISTEN TO EVERYTHING ELSE THEY SPEW.

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/AMUKRFURNVRUMY7UJ5MZB3MNUM Jalisa

    My post was to long but you felt compelled to do the same.First things first since you seem to know it all you should know that being the president doesn’t give you unlimited power if it did there wouldn’t be a need for congress.That being said I am not going to sit here and act like he has done everything right because he hasn’t but for the things he has done he still can’t get credit for.Since the day this man stepped into office he has had to fight the republicans and idiotic people like you who only see things the way they want to.Obama is not perfect by any means but no president has done all that they promised.As far as his political
    philosophy you would see that if that is what you wanted to see.He took office with people waiting and wanting him to fail so it wouldn’t matter if he did everything under the sun right you would still see it the way you wanted to see it.As for me living off the government I have also worked for everything I have.I don’t depend on senators,presidents or government for anything because I know at the end of the day they don’t care about the people they care about self.I just find it funny that the same people who gripe,b***h and moan are the first to call Obama out on all the things you feel he is doing or has done wrong but for years and centuries the government has been screwing folks.One man doesn’t run the government and you remove him and you still have the same problems.Where was your complaint when Bush was given not four but eight years to screw us over and make the rich richer.Where was that same out rage when Clinton was taking work out of hard working american hands and sending it over seas.Here is something else you should know about politics,politicians lie they are going to say whatever they need to to get into office.I would thing someone with your name would know that.My suggestion for you is to do your research on how many of the past president have lived up to their promises .As for me being racists or a socialist I am neither I am someone who has watched what has happened to this country and smart enough to know it can’t blamed on one man.I am someone who has seen a change in people since this man took office.If his presidency does nothing else it has uncovered some hypocrisy and brought peoples true feeling out.I am not the one running at the mouth repeating what people who hate this man has spent four years saying.People who have disrespected and tried to discredit him for four years.You may not like him but as an american and someone who loves this country you should at least give him that much.People wonder why other states have no respect for us how can we expect them to respect us when we don’t even show respect for our president.Bush trashed this country for eight years but he was never treated and had to endure what this man and his family have.I don’t know all there is to know about the man but I do know that because it is printed or said doesn’t make it true.I just wish all of you who are so quick to lynch this man would stop hiding behind your computers and throw you hat into the presidential ring but you won’t because your all talk.It is easier to criticize what you see and read.

  • KnowledgeIsPower

    If it cant be blamed on one man, then why has Obama spent almost 4 years blaming Bush? If he wins (God help us) who is going to blame next? People have to earn my respect and Obama has done absolutely NOTHING to earn it. You must have been in diapers or unable to read while bush was in office because the MSM attacked him daily. The Dixie Chicks were out of the country when they told foreigners, foreigners, that they were embarrassed by him so dont try and rewrite history the way Obama does with crap lies like that. As far as written words, read his own words, I did. Look up some of the names that he has called his mentors, I did. As far as throwing my hat into a ring, nope, I had waaay too much fun in my teens/20′s and I dont have the means or desire. Ummm… this is a blog accessed through my computer but I promise Im sitting out in the open and not hiding.

  • KnowledgeIsPower

    Forgot, you are correct in there have been problems for years and years. There is absolutely NOTHING that can be done about what was in the past. We can however take action to improve the future. This is not the country I grew up in, that I raised my children in nor one that envisioned for my granddaughter. Im serious, read his book, its an eye opener.

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/AMUKRFURNVRUMY7UJ5MZB3MNUM Jalisa

    You should get some new material because this is the same crap the GOP are pushing at their convention.Bush’s brother just spouted this same crap today.I know Bush was talked about and caught alot of flack but how much of it was directed towards his race.Obama has been referred to as “tar baby”,,”monkey”,not to mention the remarks about his wife,you know the one “Moooooooochelle.Don’t forget the remarks directed at his wife and kids about the wife being a widow and the kids being fatherless.Now you tell me at what point did Bush in his eights years have to deal with that level of hate.You are right but also wrong maybe if people didn’t hold him responsible for what Bush did he wouldn’t have to keep bringing him up.People expected him to clean up in fours years what it took eights to do not to mention centuries worth of damage.This country was not thriving before he took office,People act like they were living champagne dreams and caviar wishes before this man took office.If people are expecting miracles they are delusional anyway.I wonder what will you do and who will you blame if by chance he doesn’t win the election because the problem runs deeper than who is in the president seat.You don’t have the desire that is funny you don’t have the desire but you can point out everything you feel is wrong.You know that old say those who can do those who can’t teach but in your case it is more of those who can do those who can’t just sit around and gripe about all the things wrong but are doing a d**n thing to change it.I really don’t care if you don’t like Obama but you are fooling yourself if you really think that him not winning the election is going to change anything.It will still be the same story just a different name and you will still be on a blog complaining.

    The good old days and that country we used to know are gone.I know what you mean but for me and my childhood didn’t rely on the government or who was in office.The government has always been about self service.That was also a different time,people had different values.So the vision you had for your granddaughter is an unrealistic one because the times and the world are different.People are different and that has nothing to do with government or presidents.Peoples values,goals and morals were different then also.

  • KnowledgeIsPower

    I’m not going to pretend there arent racists out there that spew hate about a mans color. I can say that color has never swayed any view ive had with the exception of changing the color of my living room. I dont know about the widow, fatherless comment that you speak of but if it refers to his wife and daughters its disgraceful. My mother did become a widow, my brother and I did become fatherless during the vietnam war. Those types of comments cut me to the core.
    Some people can disagree with policy without stooping to name calling and personal attacks.
    As far as running for office, are you saying that unless Im prepared to run for office Im not entitled to my opinion or allowed to criticize what I see as an inept administration? Thats why I vote, that is my voice. Being a small and geting smaller business owner I need change and I need it now. Im sick of all the red tape and hoops that I have to jump thru to get anything done. Laying off employees is heartbreaking. Closing my doors forever will be devastating.
    You keep bringing up champagne dreams and caviar wishes. Nope, never lived it but I was living MY American dream.

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/AMUKRFURNVRUMY7UJ5MZB3MNUM Jalisa

    You are entitled to your opinion but my point is that people act like this has happened in a span of four years.It didn’t and if we are going to pass out blame we have to look further than Obama because the mess didn’t start with him and it won’t end with him.Do you really believe that it really makes a difference who is in office.Based on history all of them have done the same thing make promises that they know are impossible to keep just to get elected and then when they get into office adopt the same mentality “get mine before you get yours”. Face it we the people are only cared about at election time.I just don’t think it is right to act like he is the cause of this countries problems and getting him out of office is the cure.The next man to take office will face the same problems because it is truly impossible for them to do all they promised.If they could do that we wouldn’t need or have congress(they are also part of the problem).I sympathize with you and know that is hard but I just don’t see how one man can be held responsible when their are members from both parties fighting any kind of solution unless it benefits them.If you don’t like the man that is fine but until we stop blaming one person and hold them all accountable who gets into office is irrelevant because it will be the same story just a different face.I never lived that dream either but the effects we feel now started before Obama took office.
