Halfwit sues Drive distributors for not making a dreadful car film
A complete fucking idiot from Michigan is attempting to sue the distributors of critically acclaimed thriller Drive – as well as the cinema where she saw it – because the trailer had allegedly led her to believe that it would be a petrol- and testosterone-fuelled abortion along the lines of Fast Five. Sarah Deming, if you’re reading this then we hate you.
Deming has launched a suit against both FilmDistrict and the Emagine cinema in Novi, MI, claiming that Drive‘s trailer “promoted the film Drive as very similar to the Fast and Furious, or similar, series of movies. Drive bore very little similarity to a chase, or race action film, having very little driving in the motion picture.” She hopes to convert her case into a class action lawsuit, allowing other disenfranchised morons to claim back the cost of their tickets.
Now, we’ve done a little research and the Novi Emagine is currently selling adult tickets to Drive at $9.75 or $5 before 6pm. It seems reasonable to assume that Ms Deming went to a matinée since she is clearly incapable of gainful employment, putting her out of pocket to the tune of £3.19 plus whatever she spent on snacks – probably another twenty or thirty dollars, or whatever it costs to buy a jumbo cornslawchilihotweenerdog and enough Pepsi (probably Diet, they never see the irony there) to drown a toddler. Furthermore, her crass inability to simply check out a review on Best For Film before she waddled out of the door and down to the picture palace meant she actually managed – accidentally! – to see one of the best thrillers of the year rather than another piece of forgettable shit starring The Rock’s gleaming, empty head. Frankly, Sarah Deming has lucked the fuck out in this situation. We can’t wait to see how much FilmDistrict manages to take off her in court costs when this is thrown out…
