Oh yeah, I understand that. You can see it in my votes last year. I picked Transformers (accurate selection), but didn't even bother to go, even though I thought there were some interesting things to be seen in Transformers I.
Conversely, I didn't vote for Terminator, even though it was one of the only movies I was anxiously awaiting - as I thought the "return to the roots" genre of John Connor wouldn't necessarily pack in the seats.
