Documentaries on the big screen

How is it that a stupid, boring documentary makes it to the theaters. I know it has to be some sort of financial backing that does it. I know Ben Stein (star of Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed) has a great deal of money and he probably had a lot to do with his documentary making it. I am surely glad it was not a wide release because they most likely lost a huge amount of money as it is.

I am not dogging Stein’s movie because I don’t believe what he is saying (even though I don’t). I just don’t see the point in trying to make a documentary wide spread for theaters. It really makes no sense to me. They would probably make a lot more money throwing some money into advertising and then just release it on DVD.

For a review on Ben Stein’s Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed go to http://www.movieguys.org/reviews/expelled-no-intelligence-allowed/ I don’t know about all of you out there but I think these guys do a great job at reviews and getting movie news out there. I am not bias what so ever because I am MovieGuy.
