The only one with a similar theme / in a way compareable seems to be Million Dollar Arm. That movie didn't do good internationally.

Costner might get some non-teen fans in other countries to watch it, we will see.....

[FTF]

I hope the studio puts out a -69% drop estimate for FSOG tomorrow...that could lead to some fun headlines.

[Maxmoser3]

Wow everything was dreadful besides The DUFF surprising

[Maxmoser3]

McFarland also was alright

[John Marston]

Not a great drop for 50 Shades though understandae since its opening was inflated

[filmlover]

Hot Tub Time Machine 2 got a C- CinemaScore grade, which is really ominous for a comedy.

[Jandrew]

I support the movement to make E watch A Fish Called Wanda. It needs to happen.

I havent seen it either.

Shrugs.

I havent seen it either.

Shrugs.

 

You're killing me here.

[narniadis]

To be frank the only good thing about Wanda is Jamie Lee Curtis otherwise the film is just rather blah to me.

[La Binoche]

I feel like the second Fifty Shades movie will see a big drop in business. The hardcore fans will still show up but the GA won't. I for one couldn't give a fuck about the continued adventures of that loser Anastasia and her cardboard cutout "kinky" bf.

Ban please. 

[Maxmoser3]

He is probably a fan of Fierce Creatures

especially for a sequel that seemed DTV(Direct To Video)

[junkshop36]

I saw a Fish Called Wanda once. It was good but nothing that I felt I needed to watch over and over again.

[grim22]

You're killing me here.

Add me to the "Haven't seen it" list, and this is despite me being a big Monty Python fan.

[The47th]

Very happy for The DUFF. It's getting great reviews, and it seems like the public is loving it.

[Dementeleus]

[BadAtGender]

Y'all need to watch A Fish Called Wanda. It's one of the best comedies ever made.

[Walt Disney]

You're killing me here.

 

You're killing me, Smalls.

[Ozymandias]

Fifty Shades utterly collapsing after OW is expected, but the fact that it may not even reach 175m after an 85m OW is still kinda surprising...  Godzilla's legs are starting to look great in comparison.

[Moviedweeb]

A Fish Called Wanda is easily one of the greatest comedies of all time imo. Kevin Klein's performance is just brilliant.
