I kinda loved those two movies 

 

Donnie Yen vs Jackie Chan was great, no matter how short and sweet it was. And don't forget CIA guy/Littlefinger with a rad sword duel with Jackie Chan

 

I genuinely remember not one thing about either (other than Owen Wilson and Jackie Chan starring)

 

I'm sure they'll be on TV for me to kinda watch/kinda ignore when the third one comes!

Everybody's favorite Quiksilver was in it, as Charlie Chaplin.

So, how long until a Shark Boy & Lava Girl sequel?

Power Rangers will flop. It's a brand that is unpopular now, and would have been an amazing hit if it came out in 2002.

Power Rangers is still on the air in the US and Europe and the super sentai genre has been going on in Japan since the 1970s. It's a series that has its share of hardcore fans and you can still make a fairly successful Power Rangers movie probably for $15-20mil. Certainly not $150mil.

‘Miss Peregrine’ Eyes $27M-$28M; ‘Deepwater Horizon’ Drilling $21M-$22M – Midday B.O. Update

Friday, 2nd Update Noon: Two fall wide releases both with production costs over $100M, both set to open in the $20M range. We’re talking about 20th Century Fox’s Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Lionsgate/Summit/Participant Media’s Peter Berg action drama Deepwater Horizon. Projected off of industry matinees today, Fox/Chernin Entertainment’s Tim Burton-directed movie is looking at a $9M-$9.5M Friday (including $1.2M Thursday) and a three-day debut that’s between $27M-$28M at 3,522 in first place. That’s just under what Burton’s 2012 gothic comedy Dark Shadows did ($29.5M opening, $79.7M domestic, $245.5M global) and that was more expensive than Miss Peregrine, $150M to $110M.

Only one Quicksilver can pull off Natalie Dormer/Dreamworks face

Man, for as big as the Twilight movies were, they seem to have done no favors for any of its young stars (aside from KStew, duh), did they? Kellan Lutz was quickly sent from big Hollywood movies to the DTV market overnight, and Lautner is now doing Adam Sandler movies and Ryan Murphy shows. And I can't even tell you what anyone else is up to. The only people continuing to get consistent work from that franchise are the ones who were already established beforehand (KStew, Dakota Fanning, and all of the major grown up players).

It's an interesting case of a studio seeing the 90s nostalgia trend and wildly overspending on the wrong property

 

And if you're gonna spend 150M on a Power Rangers movie it certainly can't be a Power Rangers movie with that cast

Anna Kendrick was in those movies once upon a time.

lol I always forget she was in those movies even though she probably had the best character in all of them (and a stock character to boot). Although even her career confounds me somewhat given the absurd number of movies she appears in that barely get theatrical releases.

Well, Kstew already had a career before Twilight.

 

And Anna Kendrick was in the saga too I think and she s doing ok with Pitch Perfect and doing lots movies ...

 

Pattinson will go nowhere, his casting by auteurs was so "bourgeois" to me, Cronenberg still thinking he has edge because he casted the vampire guy in his movies that only shock his aunt.

Kinda like the Hunger Games series, huh? Sure, J-Law is big now, but like what is Josh Hutcherson up to and the other guy who was in the love triangle?
