You’ve probably seen the trailer, with lots of bangs and spaceships firing lazers and Johnny Travolta laughing it up like a dreadlocked Ming the Merciless. The film of dodgy scientologist guru L Ron Hubbard’s dodgy epic sci-fi novel ‘Battlefield Earth’ hits this summer. Now follow this – pre-screen reports say it’s beige tinted garbage, loaded full of plot-holes and misfiring setpieces. Yet the studio that’s produced it have already green lighted a sequel, so pleased are they with it. Duuh?!!? What’s going on? If a film sucks that bad surely it’ll bomb, and bombs don’t come back –right?
It’s beyond your control kids, but then I suppose it’s your fault – summer sci-fi blockbusters are still in vogue, regardless of if they flop because there’s always enough dumb sheep to flock to the multiplex for them. That’s why you’ll get another American produced ‘Godzilla’ film, and another ‘Lost in Space’, and another ‘Batman and Robin’. Damn. Blast.
