Fair enough. Still sounds a dire film..... Mind you I said that about Die Hard before it came out and boy was I wrong!

My favorite story - back in the day my best friend didn't wanna go see RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK "Looks like a stupid cowboy movie".
Yeah...It's his favorite movie of all time. Never can tell sometimes. (But the collected reviews are not promising for Skyscraper).

Yep publicity for Raiders was badly handled. For some reason here people thought it was a religious movie. And no I don't know why either....

Just like when people thought DREDD was ONLY showing in 3D and stayed away. (That is kinda what happens when you promote the title as DREDD 3D).

To be fair there was a period when the 3D showings were many of a film and virtually no 2D showing. Around 3 to 4 years ago with the result I missed on some cinema showings as I can't perceive 3D.
