This is true...I'm pretty sure you could pay off the national debt with that much money...a few times. I think Sonic has it though. They make that much in Cherry Limeades alone.

Shoot, MY concern is that I'm not currently enjoying a delicious banana cream pie shake. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

Not to beat down on America's attention span, but I doubt it would make a lot in the theaters. One showing...continuously...for the rest of time.
