Probably that Mel Gibson is too old and Russell Crowe wasn't available.![]()

I haven't watched it as it telesynch - projector dude in the cinema takes in a camera and records it from up there. I will wait for a R5 or a screener (what journos get for reviews) to come out.

telesynch's not always filmed by the projector dude, but it is most of the time. What Telesynhc means its filmed with a camcorder like a CAM release but the audio is taken from the source, and not the mcirophone of the camcorder![]()
