The First Lady\u2019s personal vanity project and also Jeff Bezos\u2019 $40 million bribe to the Trump family, \u201cMELANIA,\u201d is finally hitting the screens this week \u2014 and it\u2019s going about as well as you might expect.<\/p>\n
The film, which is directed by accused rapist Brett Ratner and had a $35 MILLION marketing budget, is garnering very little interest across the pond.<\/p>\n
The Guardian reports that \u201cUK ticket sales for Melania are so far \u2018soft,\u2019 according to Tim Richards, the chief executive of Vue, one of the country\u2019s biggest cinema operators. Just one ticket has been sold for the first 3.10pm screening on Friday at its flagship Islington branch in London, while two have been booked for 6pm.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the time of publication, all seats remained available for the 28 screenings of Melania at the Blackburn, Castleford and Hamilton branches.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe picture was slightly rosier at the Cineworld in Wandsworth, which had sold four tickets, while five backrow seats were also booked at the Cineworld in Broughton.\u201d<\/p>\n
So, that\u2019s a total of 11 tickets so far.<\/p>\n
Richards admitted that he had received a considerable amount of pushback from the public for choosing to screen the film at all, but declared that \u201cwe do not play judge and jury to censor movies.\u201d<\/p>\n
Expectations for the almost certainly fictitious \u201cdocumentary,\u201d which claims to detail the 20 days leading up to Trump\u2019s return to the presidency, is not expected to bring in a lot of money. Industry analysts suspect that many theaters have been paid a set fee to show the movie in lieu of their normal profits from ticket sales.
\nOn Monday, Donald Trump promised that \u201ctickets are SELLING OUT FAST!\u201d
\nWe can\u2019t wait to see what Trump will do to try to save face from what is looking like an abject humiliation. Will he launch a campaign demanding that an Oscar winner give up their award to Melania? Throw a week-long fit about how Woke AMC Theaters is sabotaging the film? Only time will tell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
