The Paramount Pictures Thread | Skydance has finally bought out the studio

[lab276]

Definitely.Tintin and MI4 both should 200m+ combined, and Hugo should be contributing something as well.In fact, even $2B is in play here.

It depends on how much they make within 2011, and I don't think it'll be enough for $2b.

You mean 2012?

Yup.

I was talking about 2011 itself, For total, they should do $300m+ combined.

[lab276]

Yeah, but studio grosses are based on calendar years.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Yup.

En, Obviously. Maybe WB can set a new industry record in 2012 .

[A Marvel Fanboy]

At least one of MI4 and Tintin will have to break out to reach 2B.

Yeah, but studio grosses are based on calendar years.

I meant they will do $200m+ combined as of 31st December, 2011.

I hope both of them do.

That is not easy...

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Due to the general poor performance of family movies this year, the chance of Tintin breaking out is tiny. Maybe 70m in 10 ten days. Then MI4 should have to do 130m before 2012 comes.

Paramount Pictures Unveils New Logo for 100th Anniversary

[SchumacherFTW]

That is a stunning image.

[BK007]

Poor Paramount. They might hit 2B this year on their 99th anniversary and have a terrible 100th. I mean, every film they've released in 2011 was a hit, only Hugo wasn't and that might win an Oscar and pay them back in the long run.Next year?The Devil Inside-> Should do what PG-13 horrors do but it could also tankHansel & Gretel-> High concept, unproven leads, fantasy and no buzz or trailer, doesn't look goodA Thousand Words-> An Eddie Murphy comedy which has been on the shelf for four years.Titanic 3D-> Living through the past, and why not? Could be a 100m hit.Dictator-> I think people are tired of Cohen, trailer looks mediocre.Madagascar 3-> No one asked for 2, negative people asked for three.GI Joe-> They got rid of most of the cast, trailer is average. Doesn't seem to stand out. I don't think many liked the first even though I did.My Mother's Curse-> Not sure what this is.Rise of the Guardians-> Puss in Boots type hit.World War Z-> Could be a hit.Compare that to Universal's 2012 and 100th anniversary.

Good points!World War Z seems to be their biggest hit.

Paramount Pictures Unveils New Logo for 100th Anniversary

That is really beautiful.

Universal should hopefully come up with a new logo too, their current one is 14 years old.

[kayumanggi]

Beautiful logo. Not a good line-up for next year though.

Next year?

The Devil Inside-> Should do what PG-13 horrors do but it could also tank

Hansel & Gretel-> High concept, unproven leads, fantasy and no buzz or trailer, doesn't look good It has Renner

A Thousand Words-> An Eddie Murphy comedy which has been on the shelf for four years.

Titanic 3D-> Living through the past, and why not? Could be a 100m hit.

Dictator-> I think people are tired of Cohen, trailer looks mediocre.

Madagascar 3-> No one asked for 2, negative people asked for three.

GI Joe-> They got rid of most of the cast, trailer is average. Doesn't seem to stand out. I don't think many liked the first even though I did. Should do 140M+

My Mother's Curse-> Not sure what this is.

Rise of the Guardians-> Puss in Boots type hit.

World War Z-> Could be a hit.

Compare that to Universal's 2012 and 100th anniversary.

They still have an incomplete schedule.

[SchumacherFTW]

Good points!World War Z seems to be their biggest hit.

Considering that the biggest Zombie film ever is Zombieland at 70 odd million, that seems fairly optimistic.

[kayumanggi]

And I don't expect "blockbusters" to be added there.
