oh come on, it could be the greatest comedy of the year. I laugh just thinking about it.

I shorted it at $121.11, whether it's a good movie or not, a $45m opening was just never happening.

This seems so harsh, considering that it's source material is a NY Times bestseller thats gotten 'decent', if not perfect, reviews {nm}

Hmm, a movie that flopped based on a popular book? Can we say, "Dune"? (Though I personally liked it.)

I didn't say it wasn't going to flop (it is). I just think that assuming there isn't a market for it at all, or that it was cooked up...

I think Delta House is trying to be funny, and that usually involves taking on extreme opinions. ;-) I found the post quite amusing.

There was some effort to leaven the despair with humor, but the criticisms of the makers, movies, and audience are sincere.{nm}

Of course, I didn't mean that I found the analysis funny, just the way it was told. ;-)

You know...I like some Lynch...Wild At Heart is in my top ten favorite films...but his Dune adaptation was appalling. Of course, since I can

Speaking from the perspective to only read the series of books after the movie, I must say that I found the movie quite good.

What were the posts about Blair Witch Project like? I agree that Abe:VH isn't any logical premise, but there's always that fringe chance...
