Sin City 2...

Someone mentioned that Bruce Willis must be laughing at the Expendables 3 number.  Well, Ex3 at least had a leak.  Bruce couldn't even help SC2 get past 10 mill.  

[La Binoche]

So is there going to be an entire subgenre of movies now about old white people learning that it's ok to eat Indian food?

From a 40-50 million dollar gross?  I doubt it.

Wow, great weekend for GOTG.

 

It's going to blow past POS and 300. I wonder if there's a chance that it could actually beat IM2's 312.4M

[baumer]

GOTG is a flat out beast.  300 is locked.

I know that feel. I get it every time a Bay movie comes out.

He got paid either way, I don't think he gives a shit.

 

It looks like he stopped giving a shit a long time ago(save for Looper of course).

What was SC's budget?

 

Anyways, GOTG isn't my favorite film of the summer (though I like it) but it's just nice to see a big movie this year finally have some REAL legs. I was beginning to worry those were a thing of the past.

Around 70M, I think.

Around 70M, I think.

Probably not big enough for it to be one of the top 50 biggest money losers then, but still definitely a huge bomb.

Seriously. Let's look at Bruce's filmography since 2010.

 

I loved him in Looper, and he was fair in Moonrise Kingdom and GIJoe. Other than that, ... what the hell ...

Algren would be proud of you right now.

So impressed with GOTG's hold this weekend. With Labor Day looming, this has totally opened up 300m, when entering the weekend I wasn't thinking 290 was likely.

yet he charges 1 million $ for a single day on set.. 

 

what a douche..his career is waving goodbye unless he changes his attitude and gets his head straight..

 

his last 2 movies flopped..he's not a draw anymore..nobody should pay him that much anymore

[Johnny Wiseau]

What was SC's budget?

 

about 60 mil $ at least..some reports say it's around 70 mil

 

it makes sense..with 9 years of inflation for the budget to jump from 40 to 60

[Breakspear]

Once again great numbers for GotG and Turtles and not so much the new releases.

Tmnt will increase!Its always underestimated!
