    John Carter hasn't even been released long enough to be on that list. Its been out what,a month,maybe two??

    Some of the others I agree with,but probably half I never even heard of,which I guess would make them losers..lol.

    What happened by Waterworld with Keven Costner?

    I thought that was a really big bust also.

  • Yeah, I kind of figured Disney was going way out on a limb with "John Carter"...
    I don't really follow comic sci-fi much anyway, but when I read the synopsis of this movie:
    "A civil-war soldier gets thrown into a third dimension" or some such...I thought of the 'Evil Dead' series - then thought ripoff loser...and how does being from the Civil War help this guy?
    Then - The title...if you don't know the story and follow it - "John Carter" is supposed to make you rush to your nearest theater? Puleez Disney - you better hope Pixar has something pretty good up their sleeve to pull you out of this mud hole...

    And Pluto Nash! LOL Eddie should have bought all the copies and had them destroyed :p

    You just really have to wonder how some of this stuff gets a green light - and thank your lucky stars (no pun intended) the guy that talked them into it isn't a lobbyist...

    Seemingly every summer, Hollywood turns out another farce centered around teenagers and their quest for sexual fulfillment. Town and Country turned that trope on its head, instead making a movie about middle-aged men and their quest for sexual fulfillment

    LOL! A movie about middle-aged peoples' trying to get their rocks off? Who is that supposed to appeal to? This is not even something that would appeal to most middle-aged people, and certainly not to the main movie viewing demographic which is something like 16-35 years old. Also, most movie money is made from spin-off products (which most clueless actors, screenwriters, etc never get a cut of, LOL) like computer games and whatnot. About the only spin-off I could imagine from that is maybe music.

      Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
      So that blind people can hate them as well.
