    Low budget films are the best.

    Maybe they should go all out and say this is the shittest film ever and then that would fill the cinema with curiosity.


    Is this the shittest Barnsley side you`ve ever seen? Got a better ring to it than Stronger Together.

    Take john Carter for example, or even waterworld, massive budgets, total flops.

    you are missing the point, the film advertisers implication...

    by telling the punters not to raise their expectations, is that, its not going to be very good.

    You wouldn't pay top whack for that, would you?

    Don't forget they have to mention - we did have Robert De Niro, Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp featuring but they get replaced halfway through by some actors you've never heard of.

    Probably go summat like this.

    I am great but we have no money, unlike the other teams in the league ..... Pause whilst he thinks of the last bit..........who have money and ex Premiership players but not my greatness.

    depends if you were a massive fan of the director, had watched his films for years.

    Then I think yes you probably would

    It depends

    ... I mean, if after watching the low budget movie and expressed thoughts on it, I could be told that it was my fault in the first place for turning up and generating expectation, that would help.... or maybe someone shouting at me as I left the cinema, that I'm living in the past expecting all films to be as good as they were 15 years ago.....
    I'd definitely be up for that.

    Depends if it was the first time I'd been to such a cinema and I was shocked to discover that my wife of 11 years was the main star or not. I guess.

    Definitely. I bought an unlimited card that I get a really good discount on paying on the door so I'd be up for watching any old **** to get me out of the house.

    I'd probably go if I could turn up pissed 5 minutes after it had started and could stay stood up infront of my seat
