Luckily despite of uncertain future, the movie industry remains to be on its right track. Did you know that Destination and Halloween 2 – with Final Destination (presumably the last sequel) taking the top slot. Both were panned critically, as Final Destination's gimmick is wearing thin, and less people are giving Rob Zombie the benefit of the doubt as a filmmaker.(We get it – you used to be in a band, and your films are boring!) Don't mind the movie reviews, but you may not want to get faxless payday loans to see these films.
