I can’t believe this wasn’t a hit!

Are you a slick movie executive looking to make a quick buck? Well, until recently, it was just as easy as green-lighting some generic CGI project and hiring a bunch of B-list actors like Jennifer Love Hewitt to do the voice acting. The plot? Well… oh… let’s say a teenage dinosaur-like creature is in love with… err… a pixie-fairy thing… wait, let’s make it a forbidden love. And they have to save their beautiful fantasy world from, fuck I don’t know, the forces of evil or some shit like that.

And, no, I don’t care if the animation is noticeably worse than that of most video games. For the thousandth time, people, we’re making money here, not art!

This kind of logic has prevailed for too long, but perhaps its time is over. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Delgo, which landed in 2000 theaters this past weekend with a faintly-heard ‘thud!’ According to Box Office Mojo, it “had by far the worst opening ever” for a movie playing on so many screens.

Excellent. Perhaps the world is learning. Now, if we can just deal out a similar fate to whatever junk Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer bring out next…

If you feel like abusing your mind, here’s the Delgo trailer:
