rainbowtrout Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Ouch for Young Adult. Diablo Cody's name being an asset to a production are long-gone, good reviews or not.IMO, her name might actually be a turn-off now. You can only take so much cutesy, unrealistic dialogue like "moveon.org" or "honest to blog." The funny thing is that Young Adult supposedly doesn't feature this annoying trait. But it does feature Cody sh****** all over Midwestern people again. Edited December 17, 2011 by rainbowtrout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 If it has the same exact run as Alvin 1 from here on out, it makes 113 million. Unadjusted for inflation, that's half of the Squeakquel!Alvin is this year's Yogi Bear and Sherlock is this year's Fockers. I imagine that MI4 will be our Tron Legacy and War Horse, Tintin or Tattoo will be our True Grit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWhoopee Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I wonder how much the weekend grosses of MI4 and to a lesser extent SH2 were affected by The Dark Knight Rises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted December 17, 2011 Founder / Operator Share Posted December 17, 2011 Well, can't say I'm surprised about Alvin or even MI4...but I'm slightly shocked that Holmes 2 is going this way. Never could have figured that from the crowds I saw at midnight and last night.The Great Box Office Recession continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe that Disney wasn't expecting 100 million from this. And Shame died, bah. It's hard to say. I'm personally disappointed it hasn't made 100 million. But I have to imagine it's going to be profitable for the studio once home video and foreign(which I don't expect too much) is figured into the mix.

Neo Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Industry is tough right now.. We may see budgets start to slowly go down, maybe not significantly but I'm sure studios will be tighter.We have already seen AtMoM be canned, TLR have a drop in budget, now A&L and Paradise Lost likely seeing budget cuts.

For a supposed 'industry', It's absurd how expensive some blockbusters are.True. Granted, I won't complain about $250m being spent on a Batman movie. I'm sure they'll put it to good use.

Bitcher Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Atmom?Mountains of Madness. A pity.BTW Sherlock made less than Immortals on its opening day. :PTerrible, still I can't say I'm sorry to see an uninspired looking sequel go. I'm wondering how well it will hold next week, possibly too early to call it a disaster. Then again, same thing was being said after KFPanda2 OW.

fishstick Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 The force is strong with BD. Supposed first competition in weeks bites the dust. There`s no way to spin SH2 number. It`s an epic fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I'm really shocked by Sherlock Holmes number. I feel like this one had less advertising/buzz. Hopefully the holidays will carry it to a respectable finish. And foreign should be huge regardless. So all is not lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatebox Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I wish I'd had the guts to make a club for Sherlock, it's opening is just what I thought it'd be given the good but not great reception of the first film and the extremely tired marketing.
