MTV Movie Awards is advertising/marketing plain and simple... and as we've seen many times, it has no effect on anything. {nm} secretstalker Jun 03, 08:49

but it does reach the intended demograhics..... and this demographic is very guillible ... {nm} b4bad Jun 03, 09:09

They're not nearly as gullible as most assume. {nm} BionicMoron Jun 03, 09:14

Has anyone seen it? Does it stand a chance in the BO? {nm} GMov Jun 03, 09:32

Yes and not really, though I liked it more than my peers. {nm} secretstalker Jun 03, 09:46

(It played at Sundance as Homework and I assume the negative reviews convinced them to change the title) {nm} secretstalker Jun 03, 09:46

Anne Thompson may just give a good term to define this film - a 'tweener'. Peterlee Jun 03, 09:51

Thanks. Do you think it gets wider expansion? {nm} GMov Jun 03, 09:55

I also saw it at Sundance. I get why Fox Searchlight bought it, but I think they are going to regret this one. Its audience doesnt really do Moviesnob Jun 03, 10:02

I thiink Fox shouldn't open this film in platform release; they should open this film in more than 250 theaters (like "From Prada to Nada') {nm} Peterlee Jun 03, 10:11

I haven't seen any marketing whatsoever on this and it doesn't have the same appeal as a Napoleon Dynamite {nm} secretstalker Jun 03, 11:02

they have tons of commericals on MTV {nm} RazorHawk Jun 03, 13:34
