Have you ever been in a test audience for a new movie? If so, what was it and what did you think?

Not a movie, but a show.
When i was in Vegas they offered to pay us to watch a TV show that was a pilot episode. I forgot what the initial title was but it was like this weird drama starring a guy who was a teacher that ends up needing a lawyer and somehow it ended up with this lawyers office being run out of a shoe store. When it hit TV it suddenly became a comedy drama called Harry's law starring Kathy Bates. Was weird seeing how much got changed.
I was a test screener for many movies... In the industry. But the one that stands out is The Sisters Brothers.
John C. Reilly
Joaquin Phoenix
Jake Gyllenhaal
It was absolute trash for the amount of all A-list talent in that film. There's moments of it that are great, simply from a performance standpoint. It's baffling how that convoluted, aimless, truly terrible screenplay ever got made. It did not do well, despite the star power.
"grossing $14.1 million against its $38 million production budget." Ouch
No, but I need to experience it at least one time in my life..
Yeah, but it was a long time ago so I forgot the name of the movie. They made us do a survey at the end about Tom Selleck’s first-ever non-mustachioed appearance on screen.

No but I meet the band Devo in 1980 when my sister was a film producer
Yes, it was The Muppets in Space.
What was your opinion?
I gave the movie 2 stars out of five on the survey sheet. It was horrible with no real plot.
Even though it's for kids?
Yes, because kids would even have trouble paying attention to a movie with no plot.
Fair enough. Thank you for posting.
nope, no idea...
