I love the reception there.

Max Nicholson of IGN called it "a horrible, horrible piece of cinema that needn't be watched by any person ever."

Even the plot summary there sounds painful.

No, Trevor.  Don't support these people.  If people actually pay money to see these movies, they'll just think that the audiance wants more of them.

I just looked up Friedman and Seltzer on Wikipedia. Every single movie they have made has turned a profit (STARVING GAMES hasn't yet, but probably will). SCARY MOVIE (probably the best one) made back 14 times its budget. They aren't going anywhere anytime soon. I weep.
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

Maybe they are, maybe they're not.  We don't know how long the contract they made with Satan lasts.

I look at it this way. They went from 1.9 and 2.6 in 2008 to 3.5 in 2010. It looks like they are getting better. And if they keep at it for another 10 or so years, they might actually make something that's decent.

Agreed: even Uwe Boll got that right with Darfur/Attack On Darfur:smile:
