Natually, there gonna give a crap cause the people at the screening, the people who'd show up to see it are Nolan fans anyway, so they'll root for it as predicted..

So a free screening constitutes great response? I've seen free screenings booed. I do love the implication that a free radio screening invites more fanboys than a midnight showing of Predator 3.

I would have been surprised if White didn't give it a bad review. He is Armond White, after all; he waits to see what most other critics say, then takes the opposite side so he can get attention and traffic. Of course, he almost always does so while not critiquing the actual movie. A somewhat ingenious ploy which worked very well during the Toy Story 3 debacle. And it will no doubt continue to work as long as people go to his reviews to complain or to insult him.

Too bad at the end of the day, most would probably prefer to revisit PREDATORS again than INCEPTION since we the moviegoers apparently aren't smart enough to handle it.. I really am going to have quite the chuckle when this doesn't do all that hot this weekend..

I really can't wait for the Excuses BKB will come up with when Inception breaks out and proves him wrong once again.

Since Inception is definitely more than doubling Predators' total gross...get ready for an avatar/signature/rank change for a month!

To no one's surprise, he's made himself notably more scarce around here since Inception became a certified hit.
