Simon, I have seen many films that either had a tremendous box-office and yet I have a totally different response to the film. An. I just thought are people crazy ...why this film should do so well. Now sometimes it may have a sequel... etc. and the film had a built-in audience and yet the buzz after was people did not like it. So, no follow up to that film planned.
Or like the Titanic. One the movie sucked .. excuse my English and definitely not watchable a second time.
Again in agreement as to does a haul at the box-office make a good film-no.
