It flopped more because of the concept - it was originally released as grindhouse - which was a double bill with rodriguez's planet terror with fake trailers between the two films.
I think people were a little worried, thinking that it was gonna be about five hours long (it wasn't) so didn't bother going.
The rest of the world is now getting the films as separate entities with the possibility of a grindhouse dvd and special cinema screenings of the original film.
It's a shame, I was looking forward to seeing grindhouse. Hopefully I'll get a chance at Leeds film festival in November.
