en Everybody in the world knows the town of Gettysburg. A lot of children know about Abraham Lincoln. If they know about Lincoln, they know about the Gettysburg Address. Next to people's own hometown, Gettysburg is the most beloved small town in America. When people hear the words Gettysburg and casino, they have a strong visceral reaction that it doesn't fit.

en [Executives acknowledge that the core audience for films older than 40 years is, well, people older than 40 years.] But a great movie is a great movie, regardless of how old it is, ... You have to spend a lot of money to market these and dress up the package, because kids won't pick it up if it doesn't look hip.
