2016: Obama's America Set To Overtake Al Gore and Michael Moore Films This Weekend In Box Office Cash Last update: 9/7/2012 9:50:00 AM LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Successful Film Expected To Hit #2 All-Time Highest Political Documentary The following is being released by O.A.F. LLC: The blockbuster hit film "2016: Obama's America" has taken in a total of $22 million and as it goes into wide release this weekend on a total of 2,011 screens, is expected to surpass Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth," and Michael Moore's "Sicko," to become the #2 biggest political documentary in history. The film's impressive total happened in spite of the fact that it expanded from just over 1,000 screens to nearly 1,800 screens across the nation, helping it to finish at #8 for the Labor Day weekend and #3 in per screen-average. "We are thrilled that Americans are getting the message that President Obama desires to 'downsize' America's global influence. We are planning to expand distribution to meet the overwhelming demand of concerned Americans who want a glimpse of the future of Obama's America," said Writer/Director Dinesh D'Souza. Based on Dinesh D'Souza's bestselling book The Roots of Obama's Rage, the film has attracted widespread attention among conservatives, liberals and independents. Despite hostile reviews from mainstream critics, the film has appealed to moviegoers across the country, drawing strong crowds in New York and Los Angeles. "This film is having an impact across the country," said Producer Gerald R. Molen. "For the first time, Americans are learning what shape President Obama's ideology--and the consequences it will have for our country's future." "2016: Obama's America" was filmed on four continents and features on-camera interviews with those who knew President Obama and his family, including his destitute half-brother George Obama in Kenya and Philip Ochieng, who was an associate of Barack Obama, Sr. It is the definitive account of how one man's past could redefine a nation and where we will be in 2016 if Obama remains in the White House.

When my husband and I saw '2016: Obama's America', one of the previews that was shown before the main feature was for a movie called 'Last Ounce of Courage'. After seeing the preview, we turned to each other and said, simultaneously and pretty much verbatim, 'We have to see this!' I won't even attempt to describe it, but I urge all posters here to watch this brief trailer. It is the kind of movie every one of us here on PfP will be moved by, and will urge others to see. Of course, being conservative, honest, and passionate in its message, it will be in limited release -- but so was '2016' in the beginning, and '2016' has served as testimony to what word-of-mouth advertising among American patriots can do for a movie's potential box office success. It is scheduled for release next Friday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-s559zLvCU
