Animated 'Delgo' Has Worst Wide Release Opening Ever

[NJNetz]

Don't feel too left out if you missed seeing the animated adventure movie "Delgo" this past weekend. No one did. In fact, the movie broke a record for having the worst opening ever for a film in wide release. "Delgo" earned a measly $511,920 this weekend on 2,160 screens, not even breaking the top ten. That's an average of $237 per screen for the three days. If you figure there were five screenings a day, and assume ticket prices are about $8, that comes out to two people in the theater per showing. By comparison, the Golden Globe-nominated drama "Doubt" earned roughly the same amount of money, but it was only in 15 theaters.

That's funny. Usually animated films do well. Two people per showing...I went to see Bond the other day, a movie that has been out for weeks. This was in the middle of the day, and there were three of us. I can't imagine 2 people per showing for a new movie, lol.

Who knew a film with Freddy Prince Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Chris Kattan would do so badly?
