^ I dont know how that can be correct because they somehow considered this review for FD positive which certainly doesnt seem very positive to me:

I love this quote from Deadline Hollywood Daily.
Didn't know Hollywood executives were all a bunch of cry baby pussies.
As the summer winds down, studio execs needing a vacation are getting punchier (and their quotes to me snarkier). But even Hollywood is embarrassed by the fact that this weekend's Top 4 competing films featuring horror, death, gore, mayhem, war, Nazis, aliens, and sci-fi all did so well at the box office Friday. "What a sad statement on movie-going humanity," a top studio exec emailed me tonight. "And let's look at the ratings for the top 4 movies at the box office tonight: 'R', 'R', 'R', and 'R'. Yikes."

chris, if it makes you happy, Fox Atomic folded.
And looks like I was off by a just few million on each.

I...I don't understand. How could a movie less than 2 hours be good enough to draw in audiences? I mean, at least it's rated R, but it's still 45 minutes too short to be worth watching. I hope that everyone involved in the making of this movie loses their job. If I ever do go see The Final Destination for some strange reason, I will stay in my seat after the movie and wait another 45 minutes so that I get a complete moviegoing experience.
