Carl Icahn Now Wants ALL Of Lionsgate
If those were truly the results then whoever participated in that “poll” must have had a frontal lobotomy. This “reimagining” of Alice in Wonderland is an abomination. I don’t understand how on earth studios keep financing all of these Tim Burton movies. I mean the guy hasn’t updated or changed his films’ look since Beetlejuice and I would think the studios would want a more significant audience than just strung-out weirdos laying around the alleys off Sunset. Please, please, please Mr. all-powerful Studio boss, don’t let this clown destroy yet another film classic ever again. It’s just wrong.
The Jennifer Lopez one was gross – who is going to see that. Certainly not a guy on the planet, and do many women even want to watch graphic depictions of childbirth?
The only reason I watched the Super Bowl was to see the Alice trailer.
I didn’t see the commercial for “Airbender” but all other commercials were very ho-hum. I’ve seen the trailer for “Shutter Island” at least 10 times in the theatre and I just want to puke. Please release the movie already so we can be done with it!
T-Pain has hit on a good point with Shutter Island’s trailer. Everybody I know is getting sick to death of the endlessly long promotions leading up to films. Wouldn’t it be better to just do a month of promo instead of advertising stuff up to a year before it comes out.
By the times films are released – I’m sick to death of hearing about them.
