Results tagged “OBESE BRITAIN” from Birmingham Mail - Mega Movies

IN TODAY'S world we (ie the general public) often mistake movies.

And, to coin one of those daft phrases which sums up human behaviour perfectly, we seem to do it 'deliberately on purpose'.

People flock to see rubbish spoofs like Superhero and Meet the Spartans because they take absolutely no effort to watch.

In fact, perhaps their great appeal is that we can literally grow more obese while they are on.

Such is our appetite for stuffing our faces during the next big blockbuster that we'll also happily accept having the latest, unfinished special effects foisted upon us (instead of the filmmakers using tried-and-tested old ones).

It's as if we're being experimented on like rats in a cosmetics' laboratory who never get to see the real deal.

But, as long as there's a star in it like Will Smith (whose fee would probably have paid for the effects to be finished) we don't mind in the slightest.

See some or the early bits of Hancock for proof of this theory.

Meanwhile, other movies grow in stature over time as you can see on TV tonight...
