The big question on everyone’s mind is . . . “Is The Hulk really going to suck as much as I think it’s going to suck? Because I am really tired of comicbook movies sucking.”
Of course, the answer to that can be best expressed in Wil’s Law of Movie Suck Potential: A movie’s suck potential is directly related to the amount of “product tie-in” which preceeds the film’s release.
For example, if there are several pop songs and fast-food children’s meals, or we’re seeing OREOS that tie-in to a movie, the odds of that movie sucking go up exponentially. If there’s a special Mountain Dew can . . . just forget it.
I’m cheating a little bit, here, because I’ve seen the trailer . . . oh dear god. Every time they screw up another movie based on a comic book (Daredevil? I left the theatre, raced into the shower and scrubbed myself raw.) It moves us farther and farther away from a “Watchmen” or “Sandman” movie. If LoEG sucks, we can pretty much forget it.
The second-biggest question on everybody’s mind is: “Where the hell is that big news you promised us, you jackass?”
The answer is: It’s not quite ready. I thought it would be ready on Monday, and it isn’t done, yet. When it’s done, I’ll announce. That should teach me to make teaser announcements when I don’t have the project in question totally finished.
Sorry . . . but I think it’s pretty cool that anyone even cared enough to e-mail me about it. 🙂
