In antisemitism discourse around Jamie Foxx’s ‘Jesus’ post, evidence of culture clash
The star quickly apologized for a social media post many saw as antisemitic, but does the conversation about it reflect a larger disconnect between Black and Jewish communities?

Surely this must have hurt the film $$

This was not very good. Probably why it failed financially.

Im actually surprised it flopped. It was funny R-rated comedy for adults. Maybe they didnt spent enough money on marketing.

That Jennifer Lawrence similar R-rated comedy was promoted heavily and it payed off in the box-office. With this one I found out about its existence the day it came out.
