Just not the comments. I think the film was awful. The reason it made money is because of all the Christians who thought that since Mel Gibson was in it they owed him a movie ticket. SO it made money, but I bet you won't see Apocalypto 2. If you do it won't break 4 million I'd agree with the disaster. Just not the comments. I think the film was awful.

Seems she borrowed a lot of jewelry for an event and claims she returned them to the Hotel Security. Problem is they never recieved it and the video survailence evidence supports their claim that Ryder never came to the front desk for anything.

He was always a good actor, but Iron Man brought him to the A- list. NPH rules too. Robert Downey, Jr. definitely had the best "comeback."

But still, Winona Ryder has had a better comeback from the shoplifting than you let on, Brian. I guess her role in A Scanner Darkly doesn't matter but RDJ's does?

He had a comeback trail, Ryder just had a mugshot and small indie roles once every 2 or 3 years.

He will though, but he is likely on a hiatus because of this disaster", I meant that the disaster was his racism...not the film.

I'll let you know how it works out. Be by your phone with bail money just in case.
