It was also put fourth to me....... "Skelly my boy, who really wants to see a buncha Germans trying to assassinate Hitler, in these times today" ? Which kinda makes me think, that just might make some sense. All these political Iraq War themed films coming out lately have been tanking at the box-office. We all see enough misery on TV and in our everyday lives, that who really wants to spend dwindling dollars to feel lousy in the theater ? Which brings me back on point.......Bryan Singer. He had such a heavy load riding on SUPERMAN RETURNS and his payoff was mixed at best. The wunderkid kinda fell from blockbuster grace. If he was acting like a "dirty loon" while filming his success's..... Well look out film crews. It's probably gonna be a real bumpy ride now ! Although, I don't wish disaster on the upcoming VALKYRIE. But with Cruise in the mix, I'm quite sure history will be twisted and squeezed to feed a somewhat mindless audience. These German Generals did a noble thing in trying to kill Hitler. But these men were not hero's. They all had a lot of blood on their hands. And I'm sure self preservation was part of their deed. But getting back to Singer again... What happens to his industry reputation if this film doesn't meet expectation's ? Does he fall to the ranks of a three and a half hit wonder ? Does he finish his film stint doing low/no budget straight to video, before ending up in the gutter ? I guess time will finish this mystery.
