Jim Norton's The Comedian? Wasn't it written by Jeff Ross? Maybe The Comedian with Jim Norton.

It has officially been rechristened "Jim Norton's The Comedian."

This is the hill I'm going to die on.

The point is any project he touches fails. Long long track record of that

So few people saw this movie that it hasn't even hit a single pirate site yet.

Sony actually sent out screeners of it back in December so I'm surprised it hasn't gotten leaked online yet.

Holy shit. I really want to skim through it just to see any parts with Norton or other comics I know, and any scenes of De Niro doing stand-up.

Half of the movies that made less than it opening weekend were from the 80's and 90's, so with inflation it's even worse. I sorted by estimated ticket sales and it's the 66th worst opening weekend ever

Bigfoot has been seen more than this movie.

he's the box office kiiiiid

Is it up there with Furry Vengeance?

Was that piece of shit supposed to be Brendan Fraser's comeback movie?

what was he coming back to, Monkeybone?

Was hoping to see Artie Lange's Veer League on that list

How did the Kings speech make less than the comedian? I remember that being a hit when it came out and being nominated for multiple awards.

Well for a start it didn't, the worst opening movie is at the top and as you go down the list they get better.

Yah? And how did your movie do over the weekend?

Moot point. The average YouTuber gets more views than this did.

Oh? And how many viewers does the average you tuber get? As long as we are discussing facts. lol

Yeah, it wasn't even released at the AMC, Cinemark, or Alamo theaters where I live. It only came out at the Palladium theater. They knew it would suck so they didn't even put it in their theaters.

what was he coming back to, Monkeybone?
