mother! Director Blames Bomb On Americans Hating Science

Darren Aronofsky’s new movie mother! has bombed terribly – commercially and critically – and he’s blaming it on the fact that Americans don’t like science:

“You have other people who basically believe in the power of a iPhone that they can communicate to 35 million people in a blink of an eye, yet they don’t believe in science in other ways. It has as many people believe in it as believe in gravity. And it scares me and it’s time to start screaming. So I wanted to howl. And this was my howl. And some people are not going to want to listen to it. That’s cool.”

Darren, is it a howl if no one heard it!? Maybe his next film can be about that.
