It was in a bad marketplace at the time because of Terminator 2. But take out Ghost, Swayze didn’t have any action blockbusters! Road House is a damn good movie but the film was not a runaway success either two summers prior. Next Of Kin couldn’t crack squat that fall neither. The summer of 1991 had too much action films and Point Break’s intended initial audience was at that point over saturated with what was on their plate(Robin Hood, T2, and Backdraft)

How Many Movies Have You Seen in Theaters in 2021?

May 14: Spiral June 19: Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard June 25: Fast 9 So far: 3 -
Anybody remember when Rock Of Ages bombed almost 10 years ago? That’s how I feel about the performance of In The Heights. Both films just looked mediocre and are also by the same studio! Peter Rabbit 2 was a sequel we really didn’t need in all honesty! And A Quiet Place 2 joining the $100 million club for the first time since Sonic The Hedgehog is wonderful!

A film I really enjoyed! Liked the main character and thought Hillary Swank was some fun to watch as the villain! Lots of unique George Orwell references! And kinda ballsy for today’s cinema, this would be the type film I’d feel like would be perfect to see in a drive-in screen and I mean that in a good way! Very good one!

Flawed? Yes but I had a lot of fun with this one! I liked the Maxwell Lourd villain and even Cheetah was cool! I enjoyed some of the action and fight scenes! Honestly I liked this more than the first one and thought it was surprisingly decent for what it was!

People also forget in 2005 we had a lot of successful comedies! The 40 Year Old Virgin was very big! Considering Steve carell was not even a big name! Also it came out in the doldrums of July! It even outgrossed the Dukes Of Hazard reboot which sold on as a The dude from Jackass & Jessica Simpson hell Wedding Crashers outgrossed the combined total of Dukes and Virgin! But it had great timing! And a funny premise! Vince Vaughn was a big seller at that time! Summer 2004 he had Dodgeball for example. also Adam Sandler was still a big name, The Longest Yard remake almost came close to the domestic total of The Waterboy & Big Daddy! the horror genre was also big in 2005! White Noise was the beginning of a new trend that we started to see at the first weekend of every year! It grossed over $50 million and then a few weeks later Hide & Seek was as equally successful then Boogeyman a week or so later broke the Super Bowl weekend record and was another hit for Sony and Ghost House! The other horror winners in 2005 were: Saw II as it increased big from it’s predecessor! Then The Devil’s Rejects(yet another franchise increase) Following those two was The Exorcism Of Emily Rose as it grossed around $75 million or so! While The Ring Two dropped $50 million+ from it’s predecessor’s final domestic Total it’s opening weekend was quite strong! 2005 had probably at that time probably had one of the strongest years in the horror genre and the comedy genre as well! As with the horror genre, 4 films crossed the $50 million domestic total threshold! Comedies you had three films that summer cross it, while in the beginning of the year you had a Romantic Comedy(Hitch) do quite well! really the only main loser was: Michael Bay’s first big bomb with The Island

Two weeks before Christmas isn’t always a death sentence. -
Conjuring and Monster Hunter will probably get pushed to 2021.

September is when things could hopefully tone down! But if this film comes out on Labor Day I cant wait to see this forum get all excited when that opening weekend record happens. I still have the original on dvd sealed may give it a watch this summer -
Black Widow | July 9 2021 | ScarJo secures the bag from Disney
Maxmoser3 replied to Kalo's topic in Box Office Discussion
Not a surprise on this release date change. I called November 6th as a potential change. If this virus worsens in November then I’d say push this to February 12th or March 5th 2021 -

No Time To Die | October 8 2021 | 82% on RT | RIP Sean Connery
Maxmoser3 replied to Neo's topic in Box Office Discussion
For now a solid release date. Thanksgiving would make a killing off of this. If this gets moved due to covid-19 worsening in the fall(If that happened... we don’t know) I’d say the first quarter needs some blockbuster lovin’ -
