Laurent K Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Rocky 3 was way bigger than First Blood. In your listing, it's not the WW figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That domestic alone true, those 80s figure are so bad. mojo as well do not have intl figure: https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=rocky3.htm Maybe some other movie were actually ahead WW and not just tracked, but that the point those Rambo were really big but were not special domestic getting underrated by the press that was mono focused on domestic BO alone until the late 90s.

Laurent K Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 yes, Rambo 1, 2 and 3 were big. The 3rd was even bigger in video rental and sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurent K Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Numbers are bad. It could be worse but they are not good. Inflation adjusted, It's behind Rambo 4 (2008). Sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brinatico Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 This movie was good. Now i know the critics and the audience are 2 diferent things. No way the rotten score for this movie is 26 and Ad Astra 80+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Craig Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 All you really need to know if you're someone who cares about RT is the audience score for this movie. 83% Fun time at the theater with an old franchise favorite!! The film financially will be fine. It'll be about $25m going into weekend two. It'll do $8-9m so it'll be at/about $34m. The M-Th dailies get another 4m or so putting it at $38m. It's third weekend is $3-4m placing it at/about $41/42m. The budget was $50m, so it's not going to flop. Not some big rejuvenated come back I grant but this character has become super niche. If nothing else it allows Sly leverage for an Expendables 4 I bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Craig Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 ^^^ It would have to have a 70% + drop for me to be worried. I fully expect 60% +/- 2% for second weekend drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Beck Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Interesting to see compared to the first three (never saw #4), but not that good sad to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Heatnix Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 40 million worldwide so far. Overseas grosses haven't been updated since last Sunday. I think this movie might make a profit. I loved this one, it was a great surprise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't deserve the critics. It's full of heart and the real successor to first Blood. Rambo 1 and this one tell a Story about a Man's Tragedy. awesome. Really loved it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdinSon2k14 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 WOW 😮...talk about earning your R rating...that was the most violent, graphic third act that I can remember in quite some time-and that includes horror films 🙂. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurent K Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 This movie has not been understood because nobody expected that. It's a western like the first Rambo was. A Western with heart. it could have been better visually. Of course it didn't cost 50 millions. Of course it's not perfect and cliché sometimes. But It's an Incredible conclusion to the saga. I'm really disappointed by the box office. It deserved much more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurent K Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 So... 8,6 m for Rambo this 2nd week end. -55%. Not bad. Not great. deserved more for his last fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not great. deserved more for his last fight. It did about what I expected, slightly less but within margins of my 2nd weekend. Financially it's going to be fine. Question will be: Is this the last Rambo? Sly is on record saying he has an idea for another, likely a more fitting conclusion?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdinSon2k14 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 There was "mild" carnage in the first two acts, then it goes from zero to sixty for the third act 😂! After the bloodbath, the "protagonist" is approaching the villain with rage in his eyes, and a huge combat knife 😂! I've already lost half my appetite for dinner, man, what is he about to do now 😂?! Cover the eyes, and peek through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdinSon2k14 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) For real? Sly has always had overseas juice, its saved a lot of his movies from flopping. I think it does very well on the home market. Also cable. Premium networks and streaming...I don't know how a movie this graphic 🙂...will ever see the light of day on basic cable. I also think it has a future as a cult classic! Edited October 1, 2019 by OdinSon2k14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
