We don't know how much it's made yet, no estimates have been released.

Besides the free tickets, was there marketing for this film this weekend? I haven't seen a commercial or anything. A lot of people might not care about a free ticket to a movie they've never heard of.

Yeah, that's enough to turn me off of it.

Well, i've never heard of a movie being successful from simply radio ads, so maybe the person doing the marketing for this film will be fired.

I don't even think one person from Peaceful Warrior has appeared on a talk show. Wheras Ferrell and Heder were on a ton of talk shows last week and even ESPN Sportscenter.
