True story.
One of the most famous bombs in Hollywood history is ‘Ishtar.’ Big budget comedy that completely tanked.
Early in the production, a team was sent to the Middle East to set up for filming. One thing on the ‘to do’ list was buy an ugly camel. They needed a really awful looking beast. The first day at the camel market the first camel they see is hideous. Team decides that they have to wiat, they can’t buy the first camel they see. After a few days it becomes obvious that the first camel was, in fact, the ugliest camel in the country. They go back to the market and ask about the camel. No longer available. What happened to it? Oh, we ate it.
