redfirebird2008 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Ted 2 will fail to hit 100M. Considering how beloved the first was, it is a really strange case. It also seems to be under performing everywhere. Maybe the original wasn't that beloved, maybe people liked the concept itself more than the actual movie. I certainly fall into that category. Concept is great, film itself not as funny as it should have been and way too fucking long for that kind of movie. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 It s summer people, not EVERY movie can be a break out, there always are casualties because people don t see every summer movie, they have to choose some of them because money is finite. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackzack Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Yikes that's bad for Ted 2. Might not do $40M OW. Ted 1 is an extended SNL sketch anyway. How many ways you can make a foul-mouthed Teddy bear funny? After a while, the novelty wears off, and Ted is going to Showtime as a 30-minute/episode TV series 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall a single plot detail or lasting impression from that movie. Basically it was nice while it lasted but left me with no desire to see a follow-up.

zackzack Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hmmm, guess I'm not the only one who had zero interest in seeing Ted 2 despite liking the first one. Some of it is pretty funny but scenes like the one in fertility clinic is just gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Maybe the original wasn't that beloved, maybe people liked the concept itself more than the actual movie. I certainly fall into that category. Concept is great, film itself not as funny as it should have been and way too fucking long for that kind of movie. Plus Ted 2 was basically a cash-in sequel, with no real thought put into it, and a lot of people gotta be safe with their money.

Fancyarcher Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 FOR THE RECORD: Ted 2 will NOT fail to HIT 100 million Domestic total. Ofcourse, Just like Ted 2 was locked to have a 60m opening weekend, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Plus Ted 2 was basically a cash-in sequel, with no real thought put into it, and a lot of people gotta be conservative with their money. Hangover 2 was a cash-in sequel but the original Hangover was truly beloved. First time I saw that movie was on a flight between Houston and Paris with my sister. Both of us were laughing our asses off so much we probably pissed off the other people on the plane around us, haha. Hangover 1 is legendary comedy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel they waited too long (should have been 2 years instead of 3) plus Seth MacFarlane in between released the bomb A Million Ways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
