American Sniper is a box office success – far exceeding initial expectations but this piece of good news is succumbing to the brewing controversy that is being associated with the the film.
So, we knew this was inevitable. The drama behind the Sony cyber attack courtesy of the controversial release of The Interview, a film that is sub par at best and shouldn’t have been conceived or produced for so many obvious reasons will eventually be made into a studio blockbuster in the not too distant future.
So the year is coming to an end and we have been privy to the good, the bad and the over-hyped.
As always we were subjected to that batch of celebs that for whatever reason have the ability to dominate the social landscape without showing any signs of retirement.
Here is our list of over-rated celebs that may posses the fame and fortune but lack the validity required for their over-hyped status:
Taylor Swift – She is adorable that is true and her music serves a cute portion of the population but from where we are standing, this Princess of Pop doesn’t have the charisma needed to make her the “Tourism Ambassador of New York” or any of the other assigned honors she seems to be racking up daily. Her talent is passable but far from impressive or innovative. We hate to admit it but the only thing exciting about Swift is…. (We are still working on this)
So…the saga continues with a film that for all intents and purposes isn’t really interesting enough to garner this much attention but the subject matter has propelled it to heights beyond anyone’s wildest imagination.
It looks like Sony has reportedly given The Plaza Theater in Atlanta and the Alamo Drafthouse Theater in Texas permission to show the most controversial film in recent history.
