Impact Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 That is so endearing about Smith is that he plays a similar character every time. He is charming he is witty and he is funny. This trailer shows none of that so it is not a will Smith film which means it should bomb. Shhh last night people said he needs to expand his roles and not be Smith. Which I think has been a problem with him as of late-I want the old school Smith back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 MIB3's underwhelming open was the warning sign for this.Hmm Mib3 film did around expectations in final gross though....IMO TA overshadowed the film defusing hype for it..people have short memory but TA had overwhelming buzz well into memorial day weekend.

Captain Craig Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 MIB3's underwhelming open was the warning sign for this. Was it though? MIB2 made $190m domestic MIB3 made $179m domestic and after a solid span of time from the sequel + the delayed shooting/script rewrite fiasco I'd say it did pretty good all things being equal. Factor in it's WW numbers and I just don't line up that this is a corollary. If MIB 3 had barely cracked $100m or not at all your theory would not be in question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIB3 had good legs because of word of mouth and poor competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkshop36 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 AE won't hurt ST2, it's the other way around. Smith lost it, can't open a non-sequel film anymore. Luckily for him he seems to be doing sequels for the rest of his career. Maybe even remake Karate Kid one day and playing Jackie Chan's role if Jaden's career tanks. The boy should go back to school rather than trying hard to be like his dad and failing miserably.Failing miserably!!??Pursuit of Happiness - $163m. He handled himself quite well in this next to his father who could have easily overshadowed himThe Karate Kid - $176m. He carried this movie with relative ease. If he had been bad the movie would have had terrible legs. Yep, clearly he's off to a terrible start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) IMO Smith is still huge as he is able to draw attention to films that with normal actors would do far worse.IMO if he stared in a very good film it would do quite well.
