Unfortunately, I never saw the movie, though I’ve heard it’s very good.
If a movie only has a small cult following, it’s pretty much a sure shot that major advertising dollars are not going to go toward any new sequel. I think this actually hurts the promoters since sequels to cult movies tend to create more awareness of the original work. Number of rentals for the original increase and may even start a merchandising boom.
People tend to promote sure box office hits more than (IMO) better movies that may only have a limited release. Why? Not sure. All I know is I don’t really care too much for Tim Burton’s work. He ruined the batman franchise with Batman Returns. He also ruined Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Some movies just shouldn’t have his signature visual style. I now see 1984 in his list of projects. Let’s just hope he doesn’t screw this one up, too.
I actually happen to love mixed nuts. However, what I don’t love about it are all those damn peanuts they put in it! Don’t get me wrong. Peanuts are fine and all, but if I’m buying something labeled “mixed nuts” I expect to roughly get an equal amount of each nut, not a can of peanuts with a sprinkling of a few other nuts. Give me a break! Ohh and what’s with putting like five pecans in the can? Do these companies think “You know, pecans are the best tasting nuts out of the mix. Let’s put the fewest we possibly can in each container so consumers are pushed to buy more.” Damn sons of bitches.
Grape has got to be the worst flavor ever put into food and candy. It doesn’t even taste like real grapes (which, by the way, taste extremely awesome).
It’s not just me, 99% of the world hate it too. How do I know this? Take for instance Halloween. Kids go around hunting and gathering candy from any place they can get it. Once home they eat all the good stuff first. What’s left in the bottom of the sack after a thorough ravaging? That’s right all the hideously gross grape flavored garbage.
A note to all candy, food, and juice manufacturers out there…STOP PRODUCING GRAPE FLAVORED CRAP!
