Too many studios seem to believe that certain stars will guarantee a big box office even if the srcipt stinks. Maybe they are beginning to learn that this is not the case.

I recently saw 2012

The effects were great, but the script was weak and predictable. It shouldn't have been so hard to spend another million on a script and maybe 30 million less on special effects for a movie that would be better in the end.

It did in the past, but now that we know their political leanings and see them at political gatherings too often and on talk shows spouting nonsense we don’t wish to spend money watching them on the “silver screen” anymore. Maybe they will gert a clue, maybe not.
