Oliver Darcy, TheBlaze — A Texas movie theater cancelled showings of several box office hits to accommodate massive demand for “Lone Survivor” Saturday.“The following films have been cancelled due to the hit movie Lone Survivor,” a sign posted on the box office window of the Grand Theater in Conroe said. “We apologize for any inconvenience.”
Cancelled movies at the 14-secreen multiplex include blockbusters “Wolf of Wall Street” and “Anchorman 2,” among multiple other films.
“Lone Survivor,” which is based off of the bestselling book by Marcus Luttrell, tells the incredible true story of four Navy SEALs ambushed by enemy forces while on a covert mission in Afghanistan.
The movie is projected to earn up to $38 million, based off box office scores from Friday, according to Variety. Estimates have reportedly doubled over the past 24 hours as a good word of mouth turns out huge crowds to theaters. » Full Article

SENATOR CRUZ: OBAMA’S ‘LAWLESSNESS IS DANGEROUS AND TERRIFYING’
Seriously Dangerous!
While speaking to the Texas Public Policy Foundation on Friday, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said the "lawless" Obama administration's handling of its signature healthcare law is "dangerous and terrifying".
"Obamacare has single-handedly been an illustration in lawlessness at a breathtaking scale," Cruz told the group, citing the numerous exemptions and changes unilaterally made by the administration.
"There is a level at which all of this is ludicrous, but there is also a level at which all of this is dangerous and terrifying," he added.
"We are a nation of laws and not men," Cruz said. "If we had a system where a president can pick and choose what laws to follow at utter whim ... that is seriously dangerous."
Cruz also warned Democrats and their far-left allies that they may come to rue the day they allowed Obama to get away with ruling like a dictator, saying their "guy ain't gonna be there forever."
