This evening, my wife and I wasted some hard-earned money
going to see a film that was so bad, we walked out after 35 minutes, a new personal record. What’s puzzling is that:
a 1) In all the hype and publicity and nostalgia for
the original show, no-one in the 2016 film production team thought that giving a
bit of time to creating a new decent script was worth it, because:
2) They hoped that enough idiots like us who
enjoyed the original would pay out hard-earned cash, and what’s worse,
c 3) Those hard-bitten cynics and bean-counters were absolutely right, curse them.
