U.S. — Moviegoers eagerly awaited the release of the latest sci-fi blockbuster film from one of showbusiness's most legendary directors, though early reviews indicated that Disclosure Day caused audiences to question their faith in Steven Spielberg.
Once the most popular filmmaker, with hits such as Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Jurassic Park to his name, Spielberg was set to enter uncharted waters as the viewing public expressed doubt that his ability to create memorable works of cinematic art existed.
"Is he good? Or do people just want to believe he's good?" asked one scholarly film critic after watching Disclosure Day. "Spielberg has had millions of devoted followers for many years, but after the release of this film, many of the people I've spoken with have admitted that their faith in him has been shaken. It's causing them to reconsider what they really believe about him."
Even the most staunch Spielberg disciples were forced to come to grips with the reality that their belief in the director was now in shambles. "How could a loving Spielberg allow this to happen?" asked Scotty Moon, a despondent movie buff. "I've never seen him in real life, but I've always believed in his ability to make great movies. But after seeing Disclosure Day, I have to admit that I don't really know what to believe anymore."
At publishing time, Spielberg skeptics had come forward to ask: "If Spielberg's talent really did exist, then how did bad movies happen to good audiences?"
After a slight mixup, Steve, Timpani, and Britunni end up at the Alamo instead of the Alamo Car Rental. Protestors block their way out and Timpani is going into labor!
