But has he made a movie to please the fans? Are the fans pleased ?
Mostly, according to the fan poll.
I've been a fan since 79, I'm more than pleased with Covenant.
Well, there's the issue. I don't personally know any fans that like it. I also don't personally know any casual viewers that didn't think it wasn't downright stupid. That's about 10 people all together, fans and casuals combined.
This certainly not a scientific number by any stretch of the imagination. However, this is not a good thing in general. I'm wondering if it's also not sign of where the fan base is.
If they really liked the movie, they'd see it repeatedly and they'd drag loved ones to see it. If casuals really liked it, they'd coax others to see it. The film is just not cutting it with people.
This observation is not a slight on anyone that likes it. I am genuinely glad that these people enjoyed it. It sux when you are exited to see a film and when you finally do, it disappoints you deeply. That's a downer.
