Not at all. What I find interesting is that they're really banking on the fact that it'll probably do really well without any critical support prior to release. Transformers 2 did plenty well despite bad reviews. Wonder if it'd done even better if it didn't have any press screenings.
I actually think it'll be interesting to see how blockbuster summer check-your-mind-at-the-door fare like this will proceed in the future. Will the Michael Bay movies skip pre-releases altogether, knowing the movie will rake in the dough without the critics talking it up (or down)?
