    They promoted it too much, and it backfired. I bet if they didn't tell the fans to go to the movies as much as they did, the movie would have done better

    But Junbug09 they're teens, it's only natural that a teen would do teen things. To me if the Jonas Brothers did more and attracted a more broad audience (Hannah: kids; Miley: all ages) they would get more fans.
