"John Carter" to lose $200 Million

The ads call "John Carter" a "global phenomenon". It is instead a flop of global proportions. The movie made a respectable $180 million, but cost an unbelieveable $380 million to make. That is a $200 million dollar loss. If this movie were not made by Disney, that studio might have been bankrupted by this bomb, but yet, fans of this bomb actually want Disney to make a sequel! What are they gonna call it: "John Carter and Ishtar meet at Heaven's Gate"? Get Real.

Are These People Serious?

I cannot believe the idea the mental giants at the Gettysburg Battlefield gift shop thought would be good. These genuises thought that selling a John Wilkes Booth bobblehead doll would be a good idea! While they are at it, why don't they sell a Leon Czolgolz, Charles Guiteau, and a Lee Harvey Oswald to complete your Presidential Asassins collection! Thankfully, somebody realized the incredible amount of bad taste involved, and the store has stopped selling the doll. A spokesman claimed that the doll was intended as a "gag gift". Not surprisingly, Nobody laughed.
