And this is why one went to make an an Oscar winning film

Yes, Michael Bay. Maker of the Oscar winning movie Pearl Harbor, just 3 years after Armageddon was released. 

 

Ben Affleck had to wait another 15 years.

Oh my God. Mark Ruffalo did a reddit AMA earlier. I read it to see if he'd say anything about Avengers 2, but surprisingly no one asked (someone did ask if he ate any socks today though). But I swear you guys were arguing with each other on Reddit. What did someone ask him?

 

 

It's shame this wasn't the follow-up to his answer:

So is taking grosses away from other days in a film's run actually something that happens to "balance out" fudging? Seems cleaner to just pretend those $2.5m just got pulled out of Michael Bay's couch.

[Blankments]

On the bright side, for weekday grosses....

 

IT'S GOING DOWN.

 

I'M YELLING TIMBER.

Bay better groove

Bumblebee better dance

It's a night

We'll all remember

It's a public company. They can't just invent grosses. So they'll "borrow" from the next few days to balance it out.

Yes, fudge is not something that can just be pooped out(sorry for the image). You mix the ingredients and then you have to bake it. Paramount has this process down to a science.

In Bay's defense, maybe it's harder to become a skilled driller than to be a skilled astronaut.

Part 13 is coming up shortly. Mods especially need to read, I think you'll get a good kick out of it. And it's a major turning point that none of you see coming.

I read through some comments on the Mojo Facebook page. Those guys are adorable in their ignorance.

It comes from years of screwing talent out of their share of net profits. It is skill one must keep practicing or they risk losing it.

That's just a step above MTV Best Kiss.
