Review: Coyote vs. Acme was worth the wait (and the fight)
Once destined to be a movie lost to history, a tax write-off for David Zaslav, Coyote vs. Acme is now finally making its way to the big screen. The film includes a note toward the end of the credits thanking all the fans who made a lot of noise about the film possibly being permanently shelved. It's thanks in large part to their outcry that the film was saved. Thanks to Ketchup Entertainment (who also distributed the wonderful The Day the Earth Blew Up ) for making sure this movie made it to the big screen. Over the past few years, as this movie's fate was up in the air, I thought how funny it would be if it finally got saved and released and ended up not being good. Like, everyone was out there banging their drums, hashtagging their hearts out, creating Zaslav voodoo dolls, etc., and then the big day comes and the movie sucks. That would be ironic right? (Not that bad movies don't also deserve to be released -- it takes a lot of work by a lot of people to make any movie.) ...
