We’re deeply saddened to report that former Vice President Al Gore’s ‘An Inconvenient Sequel’ has bombed at the box office pulling a bottom-of-the-list 15th position competing against an array of other box office bombs.
It’s not like this is the summer of blockbuster movies, so it’s sort of a double-shot to gut of planet Earth’s chief global hot air propagandist that his film his getting beat by a bunch silver screen duds.
Gore and his leftist ilk were hailing this film as a response to President Trump’s agenda of rolling back the global warming agenda.
But from the looks of it, no one really seems to care anymore that the world is facing climate armageddon.
Or maybe it’s just that they no longer believe the junk science.
It was telling, of course, that in the same week Australia’s officials were forced to acknowledge and roll back temperature data that had been edited to show a false increase in global temperatures.
Justice is still alive.
Here’s more from Climate Depot…
Former Vice President Al Gore’s new film, “An Inconvenient Sequel”, came in a dismal 15th this weekend at U.S. theaters, according to Box Office Mojo.
Gore’s defenders have been quick to blame Paramount Pictures for the dismal performance of Gore’s sequel. “Al Gore Gets Ripped Off Again,” screamed the headline of D.R. Tucker in Washington Monthly.View post
“This was not supposed to happen,” Tucker wrote, adding, “he should have demanded a recount.”
“Sadly, the box-office under-performance of An Inconvenient Sequel will be seized upon by climate-change deniers as ‘proof’ that Americans don’t really care about this issue,” Tucker wrote.
According to Deadline Hollywood, Gore’s sequel “grossed $900K, averaging $5,000 (per screen). That brought its cume (cumulative) over seven figures, landing at $1,052,000. Its weekend gross placed it 15th in the overall box office as of Sunday morning. Paramount said it will expand the title to over 500 locations next weekend.
The box office performance will disappoint Gore, who had urged his followers to pack movie theaters to send a message to “Trump and the other climate deniers.”
“By filling theaters, we can show Donald Trump and the other climate deniers in the White House that the American people are committed to climate action –– no matter what they do, say, or tweet!” Gore wrote in an email alert sent to his supporters on Friday August 4th, the day of his nationwide opening.
Many of the political left no longer want to see Gore as the face of the global warming movement. See: Warmist New Republic: ‘The Troubling Return of Al Gore’ – ‘Not everyone on the left is celebrating Gore’s reemergence’
Gore’s climate claims are failing to materialize as many of his assertions are exactly the opposite of the current climate data.

A prominent Ivy League Geologist who voted for Gore, was “appalled” after viewing his first 2006 film. “I voted for Gore in 2000, yeah. I think that if he ran again, depending on who he ran against, I might vote for him. He’s a smart man,” said Geologist Dr. Robert Giegengack, who chaired the Department of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania in the skeptical film “Climate Hustle.”
But after viewing Gore’s film, Giegengack had this reaction. “I was appalled. I was appalled because he either deliberately misrepresented the point he was making or didn’t understand it. So it was irresponsible of Al Gore.”
“CO2 is not the villain that it has been portrayed. I’m impressed by the fact that the present climate, from the perspective of a geologist, is very close to the coldest it’s ever been. The concentration CO2 in the atmosphere today is the close to the lowest it has ever been,” Giegengack explained in “Climate Hustle”.
A key claim in Gore’s sequel about his role in securing the UN Paris climate pact has also been called into question.
