even the descriptions of these movies sound bad. I heard that audiences literally jeered and boo’d “Jupiter Ascending” a while back before the release.
The only reason they struck gold with "The Matrix" because it was the perfect movie to be released at the time (1999).
It has a muddled target audience. Guys think it is a chick flick with Tatum and Kunis while women have no clue or interest about it.
Yea, at Sundance. I literally jeer at most of the garbage they praise at Sundance. Most of the Wachowski movies are pretty terrible. The Matrix , and V for Vendetta being the only two good movies. Cloud Atlas was “okay”.
I saw theatrical release of Dune in mid 80s near Times Square
Same things
Jeers
