Every year they’ve come and every year they’ve made a little part of us die inside – Date Movie, Superhero Movie, Epic Movie, Meet The Spartans...
So we met the news of Disaster Movie‘s release with a kind of grim stoicism. Yes, Disaster Movie would be an awful hodge-podge of cackhanded spoofs so hopelessly broad that only the very worst kind of dribbling crosseyed halfwit would enjoy, but it’d end up as number one in the weekend box office and our burgeoning misanthropy would get another power-boost.
But no – Disaster Movie isn’t top of the US weekend box office. Disaster Movie isn’t even in the weekend box office top five. Tropic Thunder‘s still number one. Thanks, humanity! A bit!
It would appear that Katie Holmes didn’t manage to run away from Tom Cruise as fast as we would have hoped for the poor girl.
Well it certainly took long enough but The Dark Knight has finally fallen, to the might of Tropic Thunder and its wall of controversy.
