It did. I dont understand why... I loved the movie

See this is what I keep hearing, it seems like all I heard in the press and from reviewers was that it did bad, but I don't remember the movie enough to judge it.

But then there is this....

It was made for $55 million and made $119 million (with DVD sales). I guess that would be considered a success?

"The album was released in the USA on November 22, 2010 and received two nominations at the 54th Grammy Awards. The song "You Haven't Seen the Last of Me", penned by Diane Warren and sung by Cher, won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song in 2011, while the movie was nominated for the Golden Globe Award in the Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy category."

It was panned by critics but managed to be nominated and win major awards. I guess Gaga wouldn't be in any trouble because Christina+Cher were praised but the story is probably what caused it to be panned. :neyde:

Wikipedia agrees.

Budget$55 million

Box office$89,657,398[1]
$119,710,764[2] (with DVD sales)

According to Wikipedia, the film's ticket sales decreased substantially after Thanksgiving (though it says it debuted on Nov. 24). And with a 36% RT score....I think that's where I'm getting the "flop" from. 

Like I said, I'm definitely down, but I want a better script. :)

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."
