Alice doing $500m WW is nowhere near that distinction. Alice will do much more than $500m WW. it will probably do $500m internationally alone.

John Marston Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Ghostbusters can definitely bomb. Its production budget alone is 154m and this is not guaranteed to do well overseas also, Ben Hur easily Edited May 10, 2016 by John Marston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amadeus Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Do you think this June and July will be even worser than June 2014/July 2015 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. July 2016 has a lot of wildcards sure, but I can't see more than 1 of them flopping hard. As for this June, Warcraft aside, all I see is sure fire hits.

The Futurist Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I love Oncle Steven but a 2 Hours children movie with a giant who has the ass face of that Mark Rylance guy is the stuff nightmares are made of. Their romance is creepy as fuck too. Kate, run ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget range of 100-125, with a long range forecast of only 85 mil also doesn't help. May not be an outright megabomb, but surely no moneymaker either.

Alice doing $500m WW is nowhere near that distinction. Yep still sticking with the same choices. Star Trek should do okay. I don't know what the budget is but I think if Suicide Squad breaks out, it's in trouble. Not an outright bomb but I remember the What Went Wrong Thread for Into Darkness. Bomb Predictions: Warcraft Ghostbusters - If this gets good reviews then that could save it. Who knows it could also end up opening like the first TMNT reboot and be pretty big. If critics trash it like Pixels and Fant4stic, I think it could suffer pretty badly. Critics usually like Pauls movie but haven't been kind to Melissa lately. Angry Birds - There hasn't been a family film since TJB and that's still doing huge. I think this movie could be the case of an idea coming way too late in an overcrowded marketplace.
