And here I was hoping that Kevin Sorbo's career would be relegated to doing those damn Direct-to-DVD Walking Tall sequels the rest of his life...

If that's all it took to make you lose faith, I'm surprised the other incredibly inept spoofs of late didn't push you over, like Epic Movie or Date Movie.

I lost faith in the movie industry when Paris Hilton started doing films that was not porn.

There's one thing about all this that makes me sad...the obscene amounts of money this film will probably make, like all the other stupid "parody" films, like "Not Another Teen Movie" or "Date Movie".  The success of "Scary Movie" back in 99 opened the floodgates for this, and just goes to show that moviegoers these days have crappy senses of humor, literally AND figuratively.

I'm just the opposite.  I have complete faith in the movie industry -- they'll produce lots of crap that I have no interest in seeing.

This looks like a classic cry for help.
Hollywood is screaming, "Hey look everybody! We hate ourselves every bit as much as you hate us! That makes us cool, right?"

That's an interesting way of looking at it. LOL! Karma for that one.

I like these parody movies. Scary Movie, Not Another Teen Movie, Date Movie, Epic Movie, though I do notice the downward curve in their quality - none of these live up to Naked Gun or Airplane, but hey, they're fun. I don't think I'd pay for a cinema ticket for this, though, nothing made me laugh in the trailer. Rental, maybe.

Why do you guys hate the film industry because they make films you don't like? Why are you mad that they're making money? You don't have to see them. Films are made for all different audiences, we see what we want to see, other people see what they want. Just because a lot of movies are made that I think are stupid and I'm not interested in doesn't mean that I b***h about the industry, and I DON'T insult the intelligence of those who do enjoy said films...
