LOS ANGELES - Audiences hit the road with Robin Williams as his family-vacation romp “RV” opened at No. 1 with $16.4 million, while the acclaimed Sept. 11 drama “United 93” debuted with $11.6 million.
What does it say about the decline of American society when “RV”, a silly, plotless Robin Williams vehicle, significantly outdraws “United 93”, a film adaptation of the darkest day in American history?
A very wise man once opined that one would never go back by underestimating that taste of the American public. Seldom has that truism been illustrated more clearly than this past weekend.
Dude…9.11? That’s SO ancient history….
There's a certain segment of the populace who're saying, "You want me to go see a movie about WHAT??" I include myself in that group. There's no way in hell I'm sitting through a two-hour dramatization, no matter how "well made" it may be, that serves mostly to make money for some movie executive somewhere by playing on all-too-recent national tragedy.
To add my two cents worth on top of what Grey Duck wrote; It is widely accepted that the herioc efforts of the passengers of flight 93 did little to change the outcome that day. As such, it's not only a shameless money-making scheme, it's utter fiction as well. Give me Robin Williams and a bucket of laughs, please.
I can put the money I'd pay for those tix to better use at Mercy Corps.
