But...I thought it would be a hit, mainly because Bruce Willis and Dwayne Johnson are both in it.

This is really disappointing news, and very similar to the delays of big games like Bioshock Infinite to next year. At the same time, it sounds like a smart business move. But man, this is sad, indeed.

This sounds stupid. Do they think theyll be making that much more profit if they'll be spending more in the convertion and then even more in having to re-start the advertising machine? I mean, this movie had a Superbowl commercial didn't it? That money has gone to waste, it's insane!

@Suedehead: why didn't you like it?

@Watcherg44: The performances were piss poor, the characters lacked any, get this, character, the attempts at humor were embarrassing, the dialogue was eye-rollingly hammy, and the story didn't interest me at all. But perhaps it's biggest fault is for an action movie, the action scenes were unimpressive, and boring. However, I would watch this movie again ten times before I sit through Transformers 2 again.

Horrible idea, it was one of the few movies I was looking forward to this summer. Oh well. That leaves me an extra $5.25 in my pocket.

The First MOvie was good, well to many flashbacks but still good! Channing was a bad lead actor, but other than that Quaid was awesome! and with the rock in the next one!
