Jack Nevada Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) uggg, what a terrible number. I really enjoyed the movie - seeing these numbers are utterly ruining the experience for me. It actually physically hurts me seeing it performing like this, to the point where I need to get out my anti-depressant meds to cope. Is there something wrong with me, in that I am one of only a few who enjoyed the movie and most everyone else think it is an abomination? What am I failing to see? :( That is both false and wildly melodramatic. Calm your tits.

lilmac Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 All Desolation of Smaug has to worry about is crossing the $600 million mark which is what I estimate to be it's break-even point based on combined production and P&A costs. It will accomplish that feat with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctis Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I miss Potter. They were so much fun to track. No matter how consistently predictable they were, it was still always a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Nevada Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) Oh man, Terence Howard is way worse than I remembered in Iron Man. I'm glad they dumped his ass. Edited December 17, 2013 by Merry Xmas From JackNevada 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) It's not a good number and there's no way to spin it. I haven't seen the movie yet, but among people that didn't like AUJ, reception doesn't seem too much better. It simply seems better among those who enjoyed but didn't love the first. Even if it is, across all people, better received, it's facing much stiffer competition. First one faced two 120+ movies. This one faces four potential 120+ films, IMO. Wolf/Hustle combined should do very near to Django/Les Mis, and with Saving Mr. Banks added in there, it'll face a trio tougher than that duo easily. Mitty/Ronin/Grudge Match should do very close to the TI40/Reacher/PG combo, as well. And Frozen is much, much stiffer family competition as a holdover than anything from last year. And then you add in Anchorman 2, a potential 150+ bemoth? It's gonna be rough sledding for the Hobbit, like it or not.

CJohn Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Oh man, Terence Howard is way worse than I remembered in Iron Man. I'm glad they dumped his ass. Wait... what? He was awesome Don Cheadle is good, but I would have loved to see Terrence carry on with the role. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Oh man, Terence Howard is way worse than I remembered in Iron Man. I'm glad they dumped his ass.Yup, the guy played an Air Force Colonel like he's playing a hipster. I didn't buy him in the role at all. Some people say he has good chemistry with RDJ, but I see that Don Cheadle did just as well (if not better IMO) in that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Wait... what? He was awesome Don Cheadle is good, but I would have loved to see Terrence carry on with the role. Nah, I think he's just sleepwalking through this thing. Don Cheadle has been a huge improvement over Howard. Bridges gets too much shit, btw.

Ezen Baklattan Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 More schools are probably on this week, I guess. That's probably the best reason I can think of for the drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same amount of schools were on the same day last year for AUJ, and it dropped harder than the first. Hell, more schools had snow days this year, too, if I was a gambling man.

John Marston Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 If movies in general dropped harder this Monday than last year then I still say it is too early to completely write it off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridges gets too much shit, btw. Bridges was good. Probably the 2nd best villain of the Avengers franchise behind Loki. Terrence add an incredible chemistry with Downey. It is a shame he was dumped, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
