Nights in Rodanthe

Why are they going to be flops?
Those movies will not be shown in Quebec City in English(only in French). I was still hoping for Miracle at St. Anna to be the second movie in English. Even then, I would had doubts for making money.
The main reason is that the distributor believe that those won't make money in our market. They may have a fairly good first weekend but that's it. You are better to rent them later on instead of paying a lot of money for average movies. They will still make money on Blu-Ray/DVD.
An English movie is normally shown here for 2 weeks and longer with blockbuster like The Dark Night.
This week, I have Eagle Eye in English.
