Put this in my top 15 in the summer game. Marketing has been non-existent. Whoops.

You should've looked at those trailer views, meng. 

[WrathOfHan]

The most recent trailer doesn't even have 1M views. That's the entire reason why I didn't put it in my Top 15.

SOC had the whole police brutality/fuck da police undercurrent to it which made it relatable to a modern audience. The film was successful I believe whether you were a fan of the group or not in part because of such a great trailer. I mean, it just looked like a good movie straight off the bat. If you're not a 2pac fan...why would you care about seeing this? Add to that its a crowded month and I just don't see this doing that great.

I mean but it's Tupac

This is most likely be another Get on Up at the box office.

Yes but it looks small budget and has a bunch of no names/unknowns attached. SOC had Universal and Dre/Cube behind it with a talented and reliable team.

If that the case it will be because the movie is weak and/or because the studio dumped it.

There is no marketing, none

Ummmm if you haven't noticed, it seems like the studio is dumping it. (And I don't understand why. I feel like a Tupac movie even if its just middle of the road quality could still make bank)

[filmlover]

Not to go all davincicode1, but I'm pretty sure they're marketing in areas where most of this site's audience isn't looking.

 

The problem is what @eddyxx said: there's no reason for anyone who doesn't have a vested interest in Tupac himself to see this.

I am actually quite surprised at how non-event-y this is shaping up to be. This man was a genius (in my opinion) and still is an iconic hip hop figure, and you would think that there would be a more palpable...buzz growing. I frequent several hip-hop and rap-related websites and forums, and I still have not seen the kind of anticipation that I would expect a major Tupac biofilm to get.

I think the blame for that goes on the absolutely non-existent marketing. No idea what the studio is doing

[Hiccup23]

I am seeing  a 12M/30M run.

[grey ghost]

I watched a clip from this film and it was super cringey.

 

I think it's possible the studio is dumping this cause they realize it's a lemon and have zero faith in it.

 

To be fair the same thing happened with Fight Club and we know that was unfair and unwarranted.

[Greener Ranger]

Early reviews for this are not good.

[Maxmoser3]

20% on RT ouch

[ban1o]

That's a shame. Huge Tupac fan. 

[CJohn]

Lionsgate. His power. 5 years tops, guys.

 

Anyway, my prediction right now is 25/55
