that's the problem, really. the fact that they so obviously didn't even try to make a decent movie. they just thought to slap on a pretty mainstream white face as the lead role and expect that the money will come pouring in, which is gradually starting to bite hollywood in the ass the more people are seeing their bullshit.

i'd say maybe this would be a lesson in them finally deciding to put more effort into these kinds of adaptations, but i'm not holding my breath anytime soon.
