baumer Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 That kind of bodes well for a good Mother's Day hold right? How many mothers are going to an R rated comedy about a frat house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPink Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Heaven is for Real might hit $100m. Hail Kinnear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilmac Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 $500K to get one's foot in the door and become a mainstream name? I'll take it. As the article says, actors always renegotiate deals if the franchise takes off (which TASM did). I'm sure Garfield is making much more than the $1m for TASM 2 as the original contract stipulated and will make more than $2m for TASM 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPink Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 It's not that uncommon for the first movie in a franchise. That's around what Shia got for TF1, what RDJ/Evans/Hems got from IM1/CA1/Thor 1, etc. But it's weird that they didn't get a raise for the sequel Your avatar...it needs to be Jeff Nathanson.

lilmac Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) It's not that uncommon for the first movie in a franchise. That's around what Shia got for TF1, what RDJ/Evans/Hems got from IM1/CA1/Thor 1, etc. But it's weird that they didn't get a raise for the sequel It's not weird at all given Marvel's well known reputation for being tightfisted with their wallets. Here's a great story on how RDJ forced Marvel to pay the other guys before he re-signed. http://www.deadline.com/2013/05/robert-downey-jr-avengers-marvel-negotiations-fight/ "After hard-fought bargaining, Chris Evans for Captain America 2 and Chris Hemsworth for Thor 2 wound up with deals still weighted on the back end but at least with attainable break-even numbers and small upfront guarantees and box office bonuses."

ecstasy Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 53% female... Yes. I saw that. My question has to do with the number of mothers in that 53%. I'm sure there were some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
