Problem is it mIghtfield not rake in the coin which is why they make films. I know my Mrs will watch this film as she liked rocky, I know boys in the football team who will watch this purely because they like rocky. If I tell them to watch a film based on jerry quarry they won't watch it regardless of how good it is. It's sad but it's the way it is, films are made to make money and the vast majority will watch them and enjoy them regardless of how good they are. Only have to look at the fast and furious franchise to see what makes money 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
