Let's face it, when your movie is a wild mix of fantasy, martial arts, horror, action and comedy, complete with the subversion of having your supposed hero played by the biggest name in the cast actually be the bumbling comic relief sidekick to the REAL hero, it's no wonder the studio took one look and went, "What the fuck do we do with this?!" And apparently, they barely even tried, as this movie got very lackluster promotion (despite having enthusiastic test screenings) and was opened up against "Aliens." This wasn't so much a case of a movie flopping as a movie never really getting a chance.
Which is really damn disappointing, not just for the effect it had on Carpenter's career, but because I would have loved to see more films with Kurt Russell's Jack Burton again (as was the original plan before the box office numbers came in). Having him bumble into future adventures like he does here would have been a lot of fun, especially because Russell plays the character so perfectly. Oh well, at least we got one perfect film, so we can be content with what we have.
"Shut up, Mr. Burton! You were not brought about this world to 'get it!'"

This is after Jordan’s implied that he could offer them a bribe to lay off the investigation.
If they’re trying to record him, wouldn’t they have captured it the first time around? He spoke pretty clearly. Alternatively, if they’re trying to get him to incriminate himself further, wouldn’t a more organic follow-up to the conversation do the job better?
(The scene: )
Edit: for all the people saying they’re gathering evidence against him, yes, obviously, that’s their job. The question is why they ask him to repeat it.

Watching Atlas for my lazy Saturday afternoon. I would usually wait til the end before writing about it, but there’s simply so much bad about it that I had to start early. Terrible acting, awful cg, non-sensical story, bits of humor that fall incredibly flat, and most of all it really highlights how untalented JLo is. 0/5
