Wasn't this already released?


I swear I remember seeing this playing at the theater and hearing about its lackluster box office returns opening weekend. I'm confused to all hell right now lol

Do you live in NY or LA? It had a limited release in December, for Oscar eligibility. General release is Feb 3.

reply

Why would they bother doing that with La La Land taking over the Oscars? Would have had a way better shot at next years ceremony

reply

Why would they think this mess would earn an Oscar for anything?

I know Hollywood people are delusional, but THIS much?

Hmmm, ok maybe they are. ;D

Remember this is the same industry that had one of their most celebrated figure heads talk to a chair at the 2012 Republican convention.

reply

Ah yes, I'd forgotten that.

Now it makes sense.

reply

That is very true. Clint Eastwood did spend a considerable amount of time talking to a chair. He wanted to have an open dialog with a liberal. But they couldn't find a single liberal who was as intelligent as the chair.

McLane: No, I was always more of a Star Wars guy.

Says the man that does not mind that the wealthiest get the most while the rest of us get crumbs. The GOP dupes the average person; They get their base by bigotry and zealotry.

reply

Yea I swear this was released in 2010-2012 or something... the Mandala effect maybe? :>)

reply

I don't remember, but I did confuse this with The King of Comedy, i.e. I thought this was going to be a remake of that movie.
