Fourth this weekend is Fahrenheit 9/11, Michael Moore's anti-Bush
documentary.
Over the three-day portion of the Fourth of July weekend, Fahrenheit 9/11
grossed $16.2 million.
This weekend Fahrenheit grossed $11 million, staying above the $10 million
mark
for the third
straight weekend. The film was down an acceptable 32% - after Lions Gate
added
286 venues
to bring the overall count up to 2,011, the film had a venue average of
$5,469, better
than King Arthur.
Fahrenheit 9/11 continues to be bounced around in the media, keeping
it top-of-mind.
Its detractors continue to help market the film - take for example R.L.
Fridley
who owns a small chain of theatres in Nebraska and Iowa. Mr. Fridley
decided
to
censor Moore by not showing F9/11 in his theatres. However, by banning the
film
Fridley
brought it back into the headlines, and probably ended up helping F9/11
more
than he hurt it.

Fahrenheit has now grossed $80.1 million, and should have no problem
pulling in
at least
$115 million stateside. The film opened internationally this weekend,
after having successful previews in the UK last weekend.
