We tried to see LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE and all performances were sold
out in Austin tonight.

Who would have guessed!?! This just goes to show you exactly how
dull the people at the major studios are... They make a bad movie
with an unbelievably stupid premise - then people start talking
about how stupid the film's going to be - then, the studio sees
that everyone is talking about their stupid movie, so they throw a
bunch more money at it.
But, then in the end, all you're left with is a (more expensive)
bad film with (a still unbelievably) stupid premise - a movie that
no one in your target audience has any respect for at all (and they
haven't even seen it yet). Do they really think a hundred million
people want to see a movie that is (probably) so bad it has become
a worldwide joke?
Of course, I haven't seen the film yet (perhaps it's brilliant),
but knowing the people involved, I'm not gonna be holding my
breath....
Not that they won't make some decent money with the film. As the
saying goes... No one ever went broke by underestimating the
intelligence of the viewing public.
Cheers,
Bob
