I have to admit when you said Benji I thought of this

 

 

I'd much rather see than than any Simon Pegg Benji movie.

TBH I was kind of racking my brain thinking who Benji was in the MI films

-What Men Want (all female remake of What Women Want)

-Crocodile Dundee reboot (all female cast too)

Like I said the other day, I see little reason to be concerned about Paramount's slate for the rest of the year. Their three main releases in October and November will all gross over 70M with a shot at 100M, and Downsizing could hit that range too if test screenings continue to improve.

I've heard really cool things about downsizing from people who have seen footage.

The perils of announcing sequels before a movie even releases.

 

At least they had the good sense to only announce one sequel. Not like...5 like Power Rangers.

Lol, this is turning out to be the worst summer for the Box Office of the century.

 

I'm getting a kick out of the fact that that (the fatigued) CBMs are what will keep it afloat.

 

It's about time some directors and studios stopped bitching about CBMs stealing all the thunder and just concentrated on making competent films of their own.

Before you shit on Simon Pegg, remember that they almost had Ricky Gervais in that role.

Paramount has made plenty of money off of Transformers.....they had to know the well would run dry eventually.  This isn't going to come as a big shock to them.

For Hailee and Travis Knight's sakes (but mostly Hailee's), Bumblebee needs to go into Paramount's recycle bin.

 

No faith in them to restore the franchise?

Transformers 5 is this year's Independence Day: Resurgence. Audiences collectively let out a resounding "NOPE!"

Dear God.

 

But he's so obnoxious Cruise would probably have had him killed off in his first appearance.

[Michael Seng Wah]

Those people who have watched it expect a lot of actions but upset due to too much of talking. If that's come from GA or fans and based on the BO now, likely will flop as hard just like IDR DOM, OS under performs including drop in China.

 

Good luck, Paramount.

Thank you. It's like, clean your own damn house first.
