Speaking of sex and wrestling, if somebody made pg gay porn, would anyone be able to tell the difference between that and wrestling? Aside from the porn having better acting and story lines, that is.

To be fair, After Earth killed Jaden's career, it just knocked Will down for a bit. The backlash from Jaden Smith generally being a dumbass also hurt Will a lot.

Jaden's career is flying.

Spoiler

While is dad is stuck with Jada and shit movies.

Can someone tell me if there are any Sat #s yet, or do I have to wade through this thread to find out?

 

I think the snow is making everyone slap-happy.

No Saturday numbers. Don't expect them anytime soon tbh. Seems like the type of weekend where we will only get Friday numbers and Weekend estimates.

Concussion is depressing  (I saw the film)

 

Equipment is evolving. Rules are evolving. And people who demand a more violent sport as the players get faster, heavier and stronger are some kind of sadists who need professional help desperately.

Focus had a pretty big marketing campaign by WB. They had no idea what they were selling because every TV spot was selling a different movie, tho.

 

Pretty big? Really? I saw way less marketing for WB's films in general this year compared to every other studio - Mad Max, San Andreas, and Get Hard excepted (and Vacation - why were they promoting THAT so much?). Jupiter had a big marketing campaign too but that was such a big turn-off for everyone.

 

EDIT: Forgot Creed.

That was happens when Jaden Smith is your son and you want to create a franchise for him.

He should just ignore him and let him do his thing.

Bridge of Spies time. 

[grey ghost]

Scientology and nepotism turned the GA against Will Smith.

 

Tom Cruise recovered from his backlash because he carefully chose quality roles and hit Mission Impossible movies kept him relevant.

[Dark 33Legend of the Sith]

Wow. I almost skipped through this thread. A very entertaining discussion of the numbers.

 

Thanks to Chewy for being Chewy lol.

Weren't those just rumors though? (Although they were printed in every supermarket tabloid)

[MovieMan89]

Smith's own ego did him in. As I said, he totally thought he was too big to fail around the '07-'08 years and started making stupid comments and taking shitty roles because he thought anything he did would be huge.

Ask that to Jaden. He seems to have found the place where he shines.

Lmao. TNA is dead. Dixie needs to accept that. 

 

Yes, Reigns is gonna get booed at Mania but he was gonna get booed no matter what there. Triple H is gonna get a standing ovation when he gets the title tomorrow.

Hopefully Reigns gets booed out of the building. Seems WWE will never give up on his push though. Hopefully Wyatt gets the title, but I know it's not gonna happen.

Royal Rumble thread confirmed.

I am ok with Reigns nowadays. The RAW where he won the title was awesome and the public seems to be finally behind him.

Good, good

Apparently the big storm has screwed up some algorithms. We may not even get numbers. Or even if we do they should be taken with a grain of road salt. haha
