Yeah, I know all about embargoes. I also know that they generally don't mean shit and get broken all the time.
Wouldn't we see a bunch of bad reviews then if people were ignoring the embargo and the movie sucked. I would think if it was horrible people would be dying to poop on it.
I haven't been in "the media" for a couple of years now, so maybe the rules have changed a little. It used to be that studios didn't mind embargoes being broken if the reviews were going to be good and generate some buzz.

Me too. But it's probably going to be a really pretty, fast, action packed fart noise.

I'm actually trying to remember if there was anything about it that I liked. Can't think of a single thing.
EDIT: WAIT! I thought of something. I saw that movie in a really comfortable chair.

Listen, t2br2d, I've seen exactly ONE Zack Synder picture and I liked it. Far as I'm concerned he's batting 1000.

No, we're getting worked up over a Kevin Costner movie. Come on, man, get it together.

I was willing to overlook the Seth MacFarlane thing, but this is really pushing it.
