That's my main flaw: I always think authority figures or my boss is going to think something I do is funny. And usually they don't.
They do think it is a big summer movie and that's why they want to give it a great chance, but they don't want to go up against Spider-Man 2 or some of the other big movies, the $100 million films that are coming up.
There is no point in asking a man a question until you have established whether he has any reason to lie to you.
