OMG i forgot about Charlies Angels 2 !!!!!
(and the whole 10 yards, the first was VERY funny, second I walked out on)
I think I have an open mind, and went into the first one (Charlies Angels) and had some fun. Nothing serious, just a fun movie, but the second one was insulting to everyone who saw it. I respected the cinemetogrophy, but the COMPLETELY unbelivelbly stunts were over the top.
I don't go into Godzilla and say, " Wait a minute, there is no 150 ft. lizard like creature in NY,.......FAKE !!!!!!
I can take movies for what they are.
I respect that Neo and Morpheus are in the "Matrix" and can do the unbelievable stuff they do........" Do you think that is air you are breathing?"
But when Charlies do the things they do it is an insult to everyone except 8 year olds.
I guess the bottom line to this thread is that movies are targeted for 8-14 year olds. If Police Acadamy were to come out today we would shun it, yet I remember thinking the world of it and asking my parents to go see it again and again.
Hollywood does not matter the quality of the pictures they put out, only the dollar value they will take in. They probably have the best marketing people in the business. It does not matter if they get a 10 year old who thinks it is the bomb or a 28 year old who thinks it is a bomb, IT IS A TICKET SOLD.
