Doesn't matter. It's gonna flop no matter where it opens.

Moving it is the best bet financially speaking. Whether the movie is good or not, it's awards chances are dashed, and delaying it a few months will (and I hate to say it but it's true to a degree) give the Spacey issue some time to blow over in the public eye.

Basically this. I think it could do around 40M in the summer.

Might want to update the title cause it's staying put.

 

I mean, might as well. Spacey won't be any less toxic by the summer. They'll just take the loss and move on.

I added a not. This is Sony we're dealing with

It's DOA no matter when released. Without award recognition, this kind of film has no chance.

It's dead,Jim.

Yeah, just have the accountants figure out how big a tax write off they can get for this.

Just because it's got zero awards chances doesn't necessarily mean it's a BAD film though

Maybe it isn't, but right now you'd have to be blissfully unaware of any news whatsoever to watch Spacey in a movie without squirming, and who wants that?

Spacey let lust got the best of him.

Should have known better.

His role in "American Beauty" seems really, really, ironic now......

This. It might be the  best film of the year, and that would not save it. It's doomed,a victim of circumstance. At SONY,they are no doubt cursing the name of Harvey Weinstein for starting this huge row of dominoes falling.

IMHO Spacey's career is also DOA. Right now has better concentrate not on his trying to salvage his probably doomed career, but on keeping out of jail. Amazed if has not already lawyered up.

They're recasting Spacey. They're going to attempt to reshoot and reedit in time to qualify for awards.

Damn, this Kevin Spacey thing is a big blow for me. He was my current working favorite actor and I deeply admired his work. This scandal is just depressive as fuck.

This seriously sounds like something they would do.

They are doing it. And as far as I'm aware nothing like this has been attempted in a studio film before.

If this was true, it would be over not just the trades but the media. It's pure B.S.

And not particularly clever BS at that. If Gopher is going to troll with fake stories, he really has to improve his game.

HOLY SHIT, HE'S NOT EVEN KIDDING
