When the studio won't let the press see it in advance. . .

. . . they're pretty much admitting they've got a dog of a movie on their hands.

Ha! That's so true. I always hate it when a preview I've enjoyed turns up without having had an advanced screening. You can almost guarantee it's going to be awful.

I feel bad for the cast and crew. You probably work just as hard on a crappy movie as you do on a good one. And sometimes, you might not know which one you've got until it's all done.

Never was a huge fan of the strip.

You and a few hundred cartoonists who wish they could recycle the same four gags over and over, and still keep their jobs.

It is extremely rare when a studio refuses to prerelease (to the press) a good movie.

Can anyone think of a good movie that the studios didn't prerelease.

Maybe the Matrix???

Horror movies don't always screen, even if they're out of a big studio. In some cases, the niche audience is more important than the review, especially thanks to the Internet.
