If you live around the suburb area (like me) and want to see decent movies sometimes it can be a challenge. There Will Be Blood, which is critically acclaimed-oscar nominated-and making money in limited release, is not playing within 40 miles of where I live. It isn't opening around me at all it seems. This puts it on a list along with a bunch of other cool movies (The Savages, Before The Devil Knows You're Dead, to name but two) I won;t be seeing theatrically anytime soon.
Which would be fine, except Meet The Spartans (really--Meet The Fucking Spartans) is opening on Friday at (literally) every movie theatre anywhere near me instead. Instead of, you know, There Will Be Blood.
It's like the theatre owners won't play "art" or foreign films becuase nobody goes to see them, but yet nobody who would go to see them can because they don't play them (I hope this sentence makes more sense than it seems).
What are the chances Meet The Spartans is a) going to be good; or b) make money? My guess is it will fail at both, as the last few spoof movies haven't been exactly breaking the bank.
This sucks the big one.
