Any sort of positive.

Percy Jackson 2 is not bad... I thought in it's third weekend it could be doing much worse... Just look at Kick Ass 2.

Kick-Ass 2 drop is insane, I don't get it, I just don't, what's wrong with the movie? It's a lot of fun, not as good as the first, but still very good. 

 

Budget is still only 28 M, it's on track to make easily 10 to 15 M less than KA1, but it will make more overseas, it's going to even out, as long as it reaches 100 M WW like the first one, I think it's looking good for a sequel.

WE'RE THE MILLERS: $4.02M Friday (est) / $82.26M Domestic Total / 3,445 Locations / $1,165 Location Avg.

KA2 barely got made and with this film doing poorly there really is no chance for a sequel. People no longer care.

I still want to see the third movie.

Awww, I got my hopes up yesterday with the 11.5M comment on The World's End.

[ladyevenstar22]

i wonder if jim carrey remarks about the violent nature of the film and dissociating himself from it and marketing hurt the film more than was thought

 

i didnt think it was cool of him to do so as he did accept a paycheck, some actors are obliged to go the tv movies circuit and worse syfy movie circuit for a paycheck, you know that whole don't spit on the hand that feeds you thingy

Summer is indeed over. This place is dead.

[kayumanggi]

At least this weekend is above last year's.

[MovieGuyKyle17]

I don't understand that Kick-Ass 2 drop at all. The 2nd movie was just as good as the first.
