God, I can’t wait for a full return to theaters.

It used to be easy: a movie goes direct to VOD, it’s probably bad. Easy, simple, no need to try and puzzle anything out from the trailer. But now we have this hybrid model, and it completely screws up my radar. For example: is ECCO going to be bad, or not?

…Okay, yeah, probably. GeekTyrant doesn’t like the look of it, and that site is even more amenable about popcorn movies than I am. But there’s still a chance that the distribution method of choice isn’t an automatic harbinger of fail. May the day soon come when it is.
