the bigger news is Tom Hanks can’t carry a movie these days. end of an era.

when is Hollywood going figure out people go to the movies for escape and you don’t do movies about problems while people are still in the problem!

Iraq
economic woes
etc.

It doesn’t work. these movies always feel like rich people trying to hard to empathize with middle america.

maybe theres still hope I can get my $8 back from Sam Jackson for sitting through Shaft some 10+ years ago…. I still wake up in a cold sweat some nights because of the nightmares….

@Mason I disagree… I think you’d see more people getting their money back for Green Lantern than Midnight in Paris.

Suddenly, you’d have much more diversity (and art) in theaters again.

If multiplex filmgoers were given the opportunity to get their money back if they didn’t like a film, then there would be no hope of ever getting more artsy or film festival type movies onto more screens.
