Kvikk Lunsj Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Oscar season is looking pretty terrific. Not so much for actual blockbusters though Agreed! I love Oscar season. I hope they do not disappoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 This has been beat into the ground, but with a summer start date and a much bigger secondary star, finishing 8 million less than Safe House is actually a bit of a failure for the marketing of 2 Guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 it's $61 million after tax credit they got from New Mexico.Its a good budget although I think Universal is only distributing domestically since it has different distributors in other countries like Entertainment One so I guess they've made back the budget from selling the foreign rights.

The Futurist Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Agreed! I love Oscar season. I hope they do not disappoint. Maybe the little kid inside of you is dying and your dark passenger has taken its hold on you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Wow. That's horrible for Smurfs. At this rate it won't even make 75 mill. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalel009Shel Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Based purely off the trailers, 2 GUNS looks more fun and entertaining to me than SAFE HOUSE did. Definitely I liked it tele, last section was weak and this film underused Patton, but boy will you love Paxon in it.. He stole the show, also watch for Cyclops of Xmen having a good role in this film and looking unusually buffed..I keep forgetting the actor's name. I give Two Guns a 6.7-7.2 out of 10.. Would have gone higher if the ending was better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonytr87 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Safe House just looked more interesting. The 2 Guns trailers were bland, bland, bland. Also, Denzel's biggest hits are usually when he's playing a bad guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Wouldn't be surprised if Sony moves Smurfs 3 out of Summer 2015 entirely. A 5-day dramatically lower than the first's 3-day is terrible no matter how you spin it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Smurfs 2 is decreasing in many markets overseas too. It won't match the first film despite a higher budget. They will probably go on with Smurfs 3 still but that will probably be the last one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 5-day dramatically lower than the first's 3-day is terrible no matter how you spin it. My suggestion: release it in mid August OS and in mid September DOM.

Jonwo Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 My suggestion: release it in mid August OS and in mid September DOM.Sony has HT2 for September 2015, they could easily swap them and have Smurfs in October to capitalise on local holidays, a Smurfs and Bond combo would be financially a winner for Sony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 The lower numbers are probably more accurate. So a pretty mediocre opening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
