Travolta and Williams Make You Nostalgic for Battlefield Earth

7 December 2009 7:14 AM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Over the five-day Thanksgiving weekend, Old Dogs made $24 million, not exactly a blockbuster, but with a budget of $35 million, once this "film" (I promised myself years ago I'd stop using air-quote marks in speech and when writing -- a promise I've sadly failed to keep) is finished stealing from us, it might actually make a little cash. That's a shame, because Old Dogs is the worst movie in botn Robin Williams' and John Travolta's career. And that's saying something. Because that list includes Battlefield Earth, License to Wed and Rv. It's currently at 6% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is roughly 7% too high. We know both men are capable of memorable work (Underrated Travolta films: The General's Daughter, Primary Colors. Undervalued Williams movies: this year's World's Greatest Dad, Insomnia.). So it's hard to imagine what made these two actors say »
