i watched After Earth a few weeks ago out of total boredom, knowing it was probably gonna be a piece of crap. spoiler alert: a complete turd.

I'm a sucker for sci-fi but I assumed After Earth was very bad. But when you got to "spoiler" I was hoping Smith had a scene where he went unhinged too realistically.

Hollywood accounting is a hell of a thing.

that family's wackadoo secret scientology association

I love how the US has two major highly successful indigenous religions. Mormonism has a Puritanical element and encouraged polygamy to allow its founder more sexual partners. Scientology was created by a hack sci-fi writer and his intent was he could grift on it. Mormonism markets itself as a sort of trad life, trad wife, etc thing. Scientology's brand and marketing is decidedly Hollywood and show business.

If there's ever a third American religion - maybe the founder will have successfully created something that's both trad life, trad wife and Hollywood / show business.
