Text Messages Blamed For Poor Moives
 

LINKYYY
that, is funny

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA, oh my god....

Why don't they just start blaming the devil for their losses? It would make about as much sense. Text messaging.... hehehehe

Naww! It'd be easier to try to claim that text messaging cell phones violate the DMCA if used during the movie. :rolleyes:

I blame the poor quality of the rabbits foot lucky charms Hollywood has been importing from Taiwan recently.

Yes, let's not blame the bad movie, let's blame the fact that people can warn others a lot faster to avoid movies like Gigli like the plague.

how about the producers of shitty films take a step back, have a good look at the crap they´re about to make... and then donate all of that money to charities.

the world would be a better place if the money behind such works of horseshit as Gigli (amongst many others) was given to medical research, or environmental protection.

and if these people are incapable of realising that what they make is horseshit, then how about we all pre-empt their actions with swift, cutting text messages.

they could read like,

´save your reputation, don´t make that next j-lo film, donate the money instead´

and,

´hey dickhead, we don´t want another sequel to Dude, wheres my car?, but there are starving people in Africa, think about it.´

First the video games, now the text messages. Where will the finger point next?

The decline in Spirograph sales has a direct correlation with the increase in Blockbuster failures.

gman.. that literally made me laugh out loud... hillarious...

so so true..

Next they'll do like the RIAA and start sueing TM'img users for libel/slander

well it's just like the last few years, the music industry has been blaming the Internet for lower sales (despite the fact that though there were lower store sales there were more than enough Internet sales to make up for it). and yet, grammy viewership keeps going down.

no, it's not the bad movie/music, it's the technology.

All they have to do is blame the fact that their industry is in decline because of terrorism then they can have Bush and company delcare it illegal to NOT go to the movies... meh

So this means they'll start making good movies again? Or will they just search everyone for cell phones before you go in the theater? Or maybe sramble all communications from inside the theater?

Yes, but using the "text messaging" logic, doesn't it work both ways? If the studio would make a (gasp!) good movie, wouldn't it work in their advantage?

Oh, wait... That makes sense... Can't have that!

Assclowns...

Oh.my.God, people are communicating!!! Human beings...interacting...fuck...

I think that anyone who sees a blockbuster when it's first released should be herded into special camps until the opening weekend is over.

There, that little brainfart is sure to get me that key to the executive washroom...

Here's a thought, stop making shitty movies like "Gigli" and there won't be a problem.

That napster guy comes by in a black helicopter and tells me what movies suck and what cds not to buy.

text msging is evil...EEEEEEVIL!!

k what?

hopefully this will put more pressure on the studios to make better films

What?

I don't know about you lot, but as soon as I saw the trailer for the hulk I knew it would be a piece of shit, I didn't need a text message to tell me that. Lucy Liu doing a burlesque routine almost tempted me to see charlies angels 2, but didn't. The point is if there was anything worth watching I'd go and see it. so today's lesson is stop making shit films.
Oh and what kind of name is gigli?

You know, I've always wanted to just scream it to the world after watching a bad movie. Now I can before I even leave. Thanks for the idea. *wonders in the RIAA can trace TXT's*

Yup, text messaging is at fault...it couldn't possibly be bad writing, bad producing, bad directing, bad acting...nope, it must be text messaging

Personally, I wish they would quit bitching about it (pardon the language). If they want us to watch their movies, they should stop SUCKING. The hulk was a terrible movie. I wrote as much on my website http://predeconinferno.netfirms.com/blog/weblog.html
My opinion, start making movies worthy of seeing twice, then they'll make money.

What will happen is that Hollywood will continue to make shitty movies but will just shorten their run times in the hope that the film will be over before anyone in the audience can text their friends. Thus is the thinking of just about every producer out there.

Imagine Hollywood producers as doctors. You walk in with a pain in your leg. Instead of treating the leg, they stab you in the kidney and claim that now your leg isn't all that bad. When you complain about the pain in your kidney, they ask, "why didn't you mention it when you came in?"

Wow, that is just plain fuckin retarded.

i will one day be making these movies, and I pledge to you all that i will make better films than the smegma that is being pumped out by the industry right now.

I knew Gigli got bad reviews, I went to see it anyway. If I hadn't wasted $12+ to get in, I wouldn't feel so compelled to tell other people how much it sucked.

The message? Lower ticket prices!

Tis a recurrent problem in society. Fix the problem? Nahh, just bitch about and blame random shit!

Jesus, I thought the 9.50 i was paying was bad. The high prices and crap quality basically has helped me read a lot more books though.

That's hilarious. Yes, what I like to do is pull out my cell phone and then use those annoying numbers to type.

It'd make more sense to blame easily accessible Internet reviews...but then you have reviews in your local Showtime. What the hell?

That made me lol, but my roommate is still sleeping

I liked Terminator 3 and The Hulk, but thats neither here nor there. Blaming cell phones is a little bit of stretch, thats just ridiculous.

If they did that, it woulden't surprise me one bit lol.

perhaps the dickheads will make good movies instead

I wish people wouldn’t walk out of my restaurant and vomit on the sidewalk. Stuff like that makes my food look bad. In the old days, people would excuse themselves to the restroom and not scare away potential customers.

This is like movie executives admitting that they have always made crappy films, only now their marketing schemes have failed.
Also, I wonder if they realise how many people are watching these blockbusters at home a couple of weeks before the cinemas get them?
