    At first I was thinking, you know what…it’s a shame it was a flop, because at least it was a filmmaker trying something original that wasn’t just a sequel/superhero/crap action franchise movie that we’ve seen ad nauseaum.

    But then I thought…no…that’s too easy. While that is true, it let’s Coppola off the hook far too easy than he deserves.

    A better phrase would be, “It’s a shame that the movie turned out to be hot garbage”, because that is ultimately what made it flop, and we’re doomed to have even fewer investors interested in original content as a result.
