I'm very excited for this movie.

I just saw it. Wrote a longer review here.

Anyone who goes looking for deep character or cultural study in an action flick deserves the misery they inflict on themselves.

Roots: TV mini series; not directly comparable to cinematic releases.

Driving Miss Daisy (1989): box office take $146M.

Glory (1989): box office take $27M.

Star Wars episode IV (1977): box office take $775M.
Star Wars episode V (1980): box office take $538M.
Star Wars episode VI (1983) box office take $475M.
Star Wars episode I (1999) box office take $924M.

Star Wars episode III (2005) box office take $849M.

Is it any wonder why someone who has found a successful formula would continue to use it, where and when they can, for as long as it continues to succeed? Particularly when it is his own millions at stake?
