If this got a 10/5 for PQ and AQ, would anybody even buy it then? It's rockin' a 2% at Rotten Tomatoes

It was 0% until a lady ruined it. I think she hit the wrong checkbox or something

BStecke · 06-01-2008, 06:08 AM

Haha, I was just looking at that. 42 Rotten, 1 Fresh. I had to hunt down the one good one. Like passing someone driving ten under the speed limit, I just had to see who it was and what they looked like.

kopkiwi · 06-01-2008, 06:39 AM

Why would they even waste money putting this onto blu-ray? Surely the productin and authoring costs will far far out weigh what it makes in sales?

BStecke · 06-01-2008, 06:45 AM

If HD DVD was around I'm sure the red camp would have said that the poor sales of this disc spelled the impending demise of Blu-ray

The movie surprisingly made about 35 million domestically . . . I guess they'll sell a couple Blus. But, at least it shows commitment on Fox's part

theprophecy247 · 06-01-2008, 06:46 AM

why????????????????????????????????

Canada · 06-01-2008, 06:46 AM

I will never watch movies like this, I have to look at myself in the mirror, at some point in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ToonyLoons · 06-01-2008, 06:59 AM

People will still rent it to check it out. That translates into sales from the companies that have to buy the disc to rent them out. Plus you will have the consumers that blind buy it. Like all the people that went to see it in theaters, someone is bound to buy it.

dvd_mazter · 06-01-2008, 12:53 PM

I watched it on Blu on Thursday and couldn't believe how awful it was, 85 minutes, I maybe chuckled once. Plus, it looks like Fox put no effort into the disc itself, the transfer was sub-par and audio was nothing special. Don't buy it! ( Movie - 0.5 / 5.0, PQ - 3.0 / 5.0, AQ - 3.5 / 5.0 )

dadkins · 06-01-2008, 01:43 PM

While I like these spoofs, buying it on Blu will not happen.

$5.99 in the bargain bin - sure!

This disc will go down in history as the greatest comedy since Tootsie.

And yours will go down as the greatest since elmer fudds

I happen to watch this with my little brother. It's not so bad if you shut your brain off at play and if you watch these and really think of the jokes about what there paroding you'll actually see how corny some of the movies and things we do in life are. I would give this movie a good 2.5-3.0/5 (average)

DetroitSportsFan · 06-01-2008, 02:53 PM

Date Movie and Epic Movie weren't funny at all, and I'm sure this is the same.

Epic Movie was incredibly funny. I will agree with you about Date Movie though.

ZackL · 06-01-2008, 03:48 PM

Horrid movie.

Beast, you may be the only person that liked Epic Movie. Continuing to let that be known will probably bring you lots of flame.

Date Movie was enough for me. It was bad, so I have no need to see Epic Movie or Meet the Spartans. Maybe if they come on TV I will sit through one. I kinda wanna see them just to see how bad they are, but I dont want to spend the money on them.

TheTenth · 06-01-2008, 04:51 PM

Why the hate on Sorbo? Some Hercules seasons were quite good, and Andromeda was brilliant.

I'm renting a landfill site, specifically for 10,000 BC. I'm sure I can accomodate anyone looking shot of this crap.
