I guess you're absolutely right. There is an easy fix for it although. They just forgot the hot chicks in this one. Daddy isn't going with the kids, because there is absolutely nothing to see for him... A Belgian production company called Studio 100 produces a lot of this drivel targeted at children and they're quite successful in doing so. They never forget to put in a few hot chicks in some tight superhero suits...  |  IP: Logged Steve Moore Expert Film Handler Posts: 211 From: Leeds, West Yorks, UK Registered: Apr 2008 posted 09-21-2013 03:16 PM                     It looks Oogustastilisious or something daft like that. Perhaps it needed a catchy there tune like teletubbies; or then again not. Or possibly everyone is waiting for Oogust?s  |  IP: Logged Justin Hamaker Film God Posts: 2253 From: Lakeport, CA USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 10-27-2013 07:48 PM                        We had several cases of the glow sticks left over which we handed out at our drive-in this summer. They were a huge hit with the kids. There was probably more value from that than there was from the gross of the movie.  |  IP: Logged Randy Pryde Film Handler Posts: 32 From: Casper, WY, USA Registered: Feb 2013 posted 10-27-2013 09:49 PM                        A year has gone by since this film opened. Has anyone received their VPF payment?  |  IP: Logged
