I can't tell, I don't think I've ever seen this before -- is that a less than zero cup rating?

Nice Widge has declared war on the Ghost Rider Movies. Now that would be worth seeing Widge vs. Ghost Rider.

Dan: I appreciate the notion but that's sort of like declaring war on a shrub. Although the shrub would be more effective in 3D, given.

Damn it, I actually had hope for this, and I didn't even know Idris was in this one. The directors, Neveldine/Taylor, also did the Crank films, which I love if only for their plotless over-the-toppitude. I dig their style of filmmaking which is very "Robert Rodriguez that grew up with a PlayStation". They'll buy 10 dirt-cheap HD cameras, and destroy them just to get 5 shots. But, 5 shots you can't get without destroying a camera (or rendering some code in Final Cut Pro).
A bit like your camera on this day.

That was sad. The film was so bad, the Wayhomer camera tried to commit suicide.

I find it interesting that Widge was so disenchanted by the movie and the 3D that he had to do his own 3D trick on the wayhomer. Show Off. :)

Yeah...what is that? Is that rating symbol a small pile of coffee grounds or a turd?
