Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

a steady downwards slide

First one was pretty decent, by virtue of being new and fresh therefore fun. Each followup has failed to measure up. The two
newest ones are in my opinion so bad as to be unwatchable. I went to see Phantom Menace in a theatre about 2 months after the premiere.
At 40 minutes in I couldn't believe what tripe I was watching. Here in Hollywood people camped out for weeks at Graumans Chinese to be the first to see it. I said to my wife at that 40 minute point, "Can you imagine how angry the people must be at this point in the film who slept on a sidewalk for 6 weeks"?

I tried to watch Clones on cable TV just last week after skipping the theatre experience. I couldn't last 15 minutes. I would rather have watched Blind Date or Cops. George Lucas is closing in on Ed Woods territory.
