Jack Nevada Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Actually, that makes sense. This totally looks like one of those forgettable "grown-up" movies from like 1996, expect that movie would've made 120M for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it starred Julia Roberts Back in the days when Will Smith or Tom Hanks just had to sign on to a movie and it locked in 100M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like boring-ass legal dramas and stuff. Looking at the BOM yearly charts you can see the 90s was kind of a hellscape for Hollywood movies.

CJohn Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 It is opening to ok-ish numbers here. Neighbors 2 is bombing, tho. It will open with half of the first lmao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Julia was a draw. She got a big budget Lifetime movie like Sleeping With the Enemy to 100m and a boring as shit thriller like The Pelican Brief to 100m. Clooney and Foster were never really draws though.

It looks awful, I thought the trailers for the first one were funny and the movie was okay but this one looks like some Daddy's Home type shit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Neighbors 2 isn't awful. If you liked the first film you'll like it. It did less than half the first film here too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were draws, they just weren't superstars like Julia. Like most things in life it's not all or nothing, there are gradations.

Tbh I am more curious to see Money Monster, specially after the good reviews (I was expecting like 40% on RT and it carries a 70%+ right now).

filmlover Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Yeah I was gonna see this anyway but the reviews are actually quite good. I wouldn't be surprised if it pulls $15M or so this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
department store basement Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Sony is having terrible luck this year, I can't see this doing well despite the reviews being better than expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a solid hit with Miracles from Heaven and their other releases were movies that looked lame and performed accordingly. This could make $50-60M and still be considered a solid performer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
