The understanding behind that “evidence” is akin to cavemen associating wind and sunsets to meaning morning rain. So they dance to it to increase the chance. They have no means to prove it doesn’t work, but it sure as hell seems like they know it does...
I’m not surprised. The marketing for this movie has been awful. The days of saying “It’s a Spielberg movie.” and expecting droves of people to show up are long over. The last special-effects-heavy, fun-for-the-whole-family movie he did was The Lost World nearly 2 decades ago.

Take the whole Shawshank Redemption conversation, everybody is referencing something correctly that Phil himself has stated that he has no knowledge of. Add to that the…
How could you miss Cowboy Bebop!
Most all of them if you are a fan of murder, cannibalism, setting yourself up as a warlord, and bondage gear.
Despite my love for 'Blade Runner' (especially the final, ultimate, director's cut), I do not want a sequel. In fact it's my love for the original that makes me dread a sequel. There are so many worthy, innovative and original sci-fi stories out there that are just crying out for a cinematic adaptation. Whatever…
If you really want to do something good for your brain, learn a new language!
The Chronicles of Amber. Deceitful bunch.
