What’s so hard to figure out.

The people who were actually at Woodstock either don’t go to the movies or don’t want to
relive it. And the people who don’t remember Woodstock don’t care.

Not that complex at all!

I did not attend the movie so I cannot speak as to it’s pluses or negatives. However, having grown up in that era, I was embarassed when it happened and have no desire at all to see it.

Simple, this is stuff theater goers PARENTS did. How embare-assing. Also NONE of the original Woodstock attendees were overweight..all the ones I saw in the clips were….UGGGGH

I saw the movie, and then bought the book. Ang Lee was so true to the story of Brokeback, and so I was really surprised at how “de-gayed” Woodstock was when I read the book (which was a great read). The movie itself was fun, but made a few jumps that were confusing for some. The main actor also seems a little nervous about being in a gay-themed film… Many of the characters were so far off to the ones in the book… I suggest that all this combines to a lackluster box office performance.

Ohhh, maybe he should have watched the movie. It was not really of the standard that we expect from such a fine director. In fact, we would not expect this from even a bad director.
