You seriously have no idea what you are talking about.  I'll just leave it at that.  There isn't a shred of truth to any of this post.  But you go ahead and believe what you want to believe.  

Hollywood is fickle (especially when it comes to actresses- after all, Maggie Gyllenhaal was told that, at 37, she was "too old" to play the lover of a 55 year old man) and has little patience. That is the truth.

tbh The Huntsman's 1M previews aren't bad compared to Snow White's 1.38M previews

Previews in 2012=/=Previews in 2016

Sounds good filmlover.  If you truly believe that a talented and well liked actress and actor's career is over at the age of 25 because they've had a few flops, then there's nothing I can say to convince you otherwise.  Again, I'll leave it at that.

[baumer]

Ryan Gosling

Sean Penn

Tom Hardy

Julia Roberts 

and pretty much everyone working in Hollywood right now....except Brad, Leo and Denzel and Jennifer.

There was no such thing as 7 PM previews in Summer 2012, everything was midnight.

It was also a June release and had previews in just over 1,000 theaters

Eh - Deadline's first report may or may not be accurate... I am more concerned about the -60% drop for Barbershop than TJB hold because that will crimp my derby lol

I was gonna say "um... B? You're not agreeing about Woodly, yet all those other actors are on the same level."

 

Then I realized you were joking!

[Water Bottle]

I can't decide if I should watch Huntsman or not.

Rising ticket prices is, I feel, the stronger argument. If ticket prices had inflated "normally" since 1989, the average price now would be $7.63. Instead, it's $8.43. Yeah, 10.5% may not sound like a huge overprice, but considering how many tickets are bought and how many movies are seen by the average family, it can add up quickly.

8.43? Its 12 dollars here and I paid 35 dollars for 2 imax tickets for jungle book matinee yesterday.

Smaller cities and theaters drag the average down.

That's not the point I was making at all. LOL of course these people still have careers. My point is that for some, their seem to go up only to quickly go down. Look at Sam Worthington, star of the former biggest movie of all-time, for instance.

 

And mostly because actors themselves have talked about what a cutthroat business that will chew you up just to spit you out at the earliest convenience it is. I felt sad for Liv Tyler last year when I read an interview with her that asked her why her career has slowed down so much the past couple of years and her answer was that it wasn't by choice so much as the fact that at 38, she can't find work.
