great movie. they should all be proud. Warner Bros just had absolutely no idea how to market this.
John Goodman opened up about how the negative reviews for Digger HURT him, saying critics practically KILLED the movie before it even opened, but he still hopes it finds an audience over time like The Big Lebowski and Speed Racer 👀
“Yeah, it hurt. They kind of killed us before we opened. ‘This will only make $5,’ and it’s a good reason for people to avoid it. I’m proud of it, and I had a ball doing it.”
