 on Jul 15 2005 04:16 PM Lions Gate is a good studio who is always trying somthing a little different than other studios to make money. Not that getting an actor to just make movies for your company is original. But they did make Crash, the best film of the year so far. And among all his credits above they don't mention S.W.A.T., which I do belive made more money than anything they mentioned. (Reply to this) |
