you have to understand in this case - what came 1st 'the chicken or the egg'

in this case..the egg ... the kids are the only ones who can afford to go to movies or even want to these days..
so the film industry panders to them.

the only exceptions are things like the da vinci code where there is so much pedestrian hype over this shit due to a combination of a poorly written 'commuter novel', a wishy washy director, and a highly bankable star.
add some chritianity conspiracy bullshit suggested to the press and you have it ..

the next Titanic. this is what the mass majority of adults is daring to risk their babysitting dollars on..

for adults - a movie is a 'big night out' .. not just something to do as an option to watching tv or hanging around the mall.


its just not worth a $100 night to see 'the beast that ate the babysitter' to most adults ..
