Since essentially no people on this board mention anything that might be bad for jews I thought I'd bring up "Funny People," the jewish comedy starring Adam Sandler that pretty much bombed this weekend.

Friday generated $8.7M in opening day grosses but sales tumbled 15% on Saturday to $7.5M signaling bad word-of-mouth. The weekend estimate Universal reported was very aggressive as it includes a scant 3% Saturday-to-Sunday decline. Final grosses will be reported on Monday and the three-day figure may end up closer to $22M.

Funny People, which co-stars Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, Jonah Hill, and Eric Bana, opened weaker than Apatow's last directorial effort Knocked Up which bowed to $30.7M in June 2007 with a $10,690 average. With Sandler being a bigger and more reliable star, Funny was expected to at least open in the same vicinity. Even last weekend's The Ugly Truth with Knocked Up star Katherine Heigl did better with its $27.6M bow from fewer theaters.

Are goyim taking notice of jews? No. But they are not excited by explicitly jewish movies. As always.
