Plain Old Tele Posted September 28, 2013 Author Share Posted September 28, 2013 If it somehow manages great legs, and gets to 40 million then yes. It’s already doing decent business overseas. Even if it underperforms here, the overseas popularity of F1 racing (and this famous story) should easily make it profitable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goffe Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Well famous if you live in Europe exactly, I didn't know that Rush was based on a true story until the end of the movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I just figured it was just some random racing film when I first saw the title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 exactly, I didn't know that Rush was based on a true story until the end of the movie You would think at the very least they would of put in the opening "Based on a true story" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 You would think at the very least they would of put in the opening "Based on a true story" Shoulda made the trailers more inspirational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Well unlike other true event films such as well Howard's own Apollo 13, this is not that well known in the US so yeah they should of just put that in the opening. On another similar note-if not for the trailers I would of never thought Catch me if you Can was a true story. Quite a few people thought it was a remake of a Cary Grant film that had a nearly identical premise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I wonder how the holdovers did?As I said in the weekend prediction thread-I see bigger drops then normal this weekend due to the massive TC losses that are going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Planes will drop hard for sure but I think it would still end with 90m when it finishes its run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Good numbers for Cloudy 2, will be close to HT's record. They will probably have it above HT in estimates for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 The Saturday number is to watch for Cloudy.I wonder how On The Job did in limited release. I hope many Filipinos in US & Canada supported itToo bad it wasn't our entry to the Oscars. I heard entries from the UK and Singapore are centered on Filipinos.

mcclaine Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I was very young when Lauda had the accident, but i remember it was a shock, the story and pictures were on the cover of every newspaper here in Argentina. I think it will perform great in South America and Europe where F1 is really popular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Too bad it wasn't our entry to the Oscars. I heard entries from the UK and Singapore are centered on Filipinos. Yeah although the one they picked Transit is a good movie as well and it was set in Israel and half of the airtime the characters were speaking in Hebrew, cinematography is also breathtaking. But one edge that On The Job is that it already premiered in Cannes and has a US distributor already that could have helped in the campaign, Yup UK submitted Metro Manila, it's set in the Philippines with Filipino actors and crew but director is British. It will be shown in our Country on Oct. 9 Singapore submitted Iloilo which is about a Filipina OFW working as nanny/maid to a Singaporean family. It will be out in our country on December Edited September 28, 2013 by forg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
