I feel like OZ was better in concept than execution. Not a bad film, but the story ended up being smaller than the idea warrants. Maybe there will be a sequel that expands things since it made money. The casting was strong though, especially Hawke and Jarvis (both feel like stars in the making).
2. Box Office
While profits were low and there were no blockbusters, it was a profitable round without any colossal bombs.
1. Manuel Garcia-Rulfo
The GRA-winning scene stealer from Cocaine Cowboys has gone and run away with Who Watches the Watchmen as well as easily the most interesting character in the film. The film itself was alright - I really didn't have very strong opinions in either direction, giving it a slightly positive C+ review - bu Garcia-Rulfo certainly stood out as the biggest positive.
Is it just me or did Norton feel incredibly out of place in Super Grover?
2. Box Office
The box office wasn't horrible, like I mentioned above, but it wasn't great either.
1. Super Grover
Too long and complicated for the Sesame Street crowd, and too kiddie for everyone else. It feels like writer Jacob Jones and director Frank Oz were looking for a franchise out of the SS gang, but there clearly just wasn't an audience for it.
