The mystery of Zyzzyx Road?
How is it that a movie released in the United States can gross only $30? Yet this is exactly what's happened with Zyzzyx Road. Even though it stars Grey's Anatomy hottie Katherine Heigl (pictured).I mean, even a colossal turd like Epic Movie can gross in the tens of millions of dollars. There can be no doubt that the movie-viewing public in the USA is not particularly... well, particular.
What matters, I think, is that if Heigl can appear in a movie that makes $30, anyone in the US who wants to can make a movie that does at least that well. I'm guessing there are YouTube videos worth many times the value of Zyzzyx Road. But I'm not making fun of it just because everyone else is. I'm saying there are opportunities out there for film entrepreneurs.
That's good news for my son: he wants to be something like that. :-)
So I gotta see this film. I gotta find out what its deal is.
