[BREITBART] White House Down, the new film chockablock with liberal talking points and a stand-in for President Barack Obama, underwhelmed during its first weekend in theaters.
The powerful entertainment site Deadline.com dubbed the movie's $26 million haul a flop.
White House Down features Jamie Foxx playing the president, a leader whose plan to pull all U.S. troops out of the Middle East is interrupted by right-wing terrorists who attack the White House. Numerous critics said the filmmakers intended Foxx's character to echo Obama, and director Roland Emmerich routinely portrays right-of-center characters as either fools, cowards or villains.
I guess that's because the country's been overrun by right-wing terrorists in the past ten or fifteen years. People are probably tired of seeing reality reflected so accurately. |
