The damage had been done, and pulling it only would have attracted more attention to it, and the trailer would still have eteranal life on the Internet. Bingo. It would have been textbook Streisand Effect. That’s part of why people remember the Spider-Man teaser with the World Trade Center so much.

Can't come soon enough. Sumo Digital knows how to make a good kart racer. I don't really care for Crash, so I'll probably pick up TSR at some point on sale. That soundtrack is a banger.

That’s part of why people remember the Spider-Man teaser with the World Trade Center so much. Or "Heaven's Gate" effect. The decision by United Artists to pull Heaven's Gate from general release a couple of days after it opened to terrible reviews (in a hope that massive recutting could save it) ..it had been slated. along with "Raging Bull" to be one of their two big Christmas releases....did a lot more to doom the company then the fact of Heaven's Gate bombing did. If they had got ahead and released, it still would have bombed, but the studio would have survived. But their pulling it from release got massive publicity and the media was quick to paint the management as hopeless incompetnets,Transamerica which owned the UA was stung much more by the massive publicity then by the actual finiancial loss (which, though painful, was manageable) decided to get out of the movie business and sold UA to MGM, ended it existence as a independent studio. The decision to pull Heavne gate from relase is considered one of the worst decisions in Holly wood history. It made a bad, but survivable situation, into a catastrophe.

ScoobyDoo21 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 At least it seems to be out of the way of competitors that would have surely taken it out to the cleaners like Star Wars, Jumanji, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to change a lot more then just Sonics look if they want this film to not be DOA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
