$176,364,679 That figure is the aggregate, not the acutal box office. My mistake. Actual estimate so far is $117 mil.
Gibson afraid he'd be booed at Oscar and won't go. They just hate guys who walk around with $200 mil in their pocket. Oh, and it's banned in FRANCE which means even more Americans will go. Let me explain that one: After years of Israel bashing, PLO supporting, and Terrorist approving in their press and TV it's GIBSON'S MOVIE that will cause anti-Semitism in France. You have to be there to understand.
