Seems as though you like all the Hollywood crap. Too bad more people do not agree with you, because if they did, Hollywood would be rolling in the dough.

Hollywood is rolling in dough. It's the theater owners that are sucking wind. Hollywood makes money off foriegn distribution, cable screenings and DVD sales. None of which beneift theater owners at all. Hollywood doesn't need box office numbers, it can and does make up the money elsewhere. Even Waterworld wound up being a financial success for everyone but the poor saps that couldn't sell seats.
