First Weekend: $27.9 million Second Weekend: $18.3 million (-34.5%) Third Weekend: $11.4 million (-37.9%) Fourth Weekend: $8.01 million (-29.5%) Fifth Weekend: $5.67 million (-29.2%) Sixth Weekend: $2.48 million (-56.3%) PROJECTED SIX-WEEK DOMESTIC: $94.4 million (3.38x) This projection is based on the performances of 13 Going on 30, Fever Pitch, The Benchwarmers, and The Lucky One. This is not doing high 20's, tracking is too low. This also isn't going to have strong legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It s like they didn't even try. The movie is also cheap as hell, no scope, cheap sets, vfx, costumes. I liked the first movie because it was at least visually arresting. I wouldn't recommend this, I agree with someone who said it s not dumb enough to be fun so it s just dull. But with this cast of beautiful, talented ladies, I couldn't resist.

But that's the only reason I'd classify the first one as an entertaining popcorn flick as well and they've managed to screw this up?! That's just ridiculous! All I ask Hollywood is to know the strengths and weaknesses of the material they are working on and yet they keep messing up like that, just sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 That is what happens when you go from a 175M budget to a 115M budget (from which 20M are for Theron and Hems alone). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shayhiri Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) I just bought an extremely expensive set of SIX Deluxe Tickets in the best theatre ever (better than IMAX) - just to watch this movie in its full glory (at least 3 or 4 times).

The Futurist Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 The way they are connecting the dots with the first movie, dear lord. There is shot with (NOT) Kristen Stewart that is for the Ages ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn, do you know that Charlize is literally Spoiler ONLY 10 minutes in this ? In the prologue and in the last final scene ? She shot her scenes over a week-end it seems and she got 10 m for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shayhiri Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Visually Egypt was a disaster. Still saw it three times, but didn't like it. (Also it was repulsive, ridiculous and I hate Proyas - but that is another story.) I expect MUCH more from Huntsman. The previous one was brilliantly beautiful. But yeah, they had to sack the director over a bitch. If this is really a big step down visually - then yeah, it WILL bomb.

What is the story of this thing without spoiling the ending? I ask this because every trailer and every tv spot sells a different story.

shayhiri Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Well, then is someone willing to buy back from me the extremely expensive set of SIX Deluxe Tickets in the best theatre ever (better than IMAX) that I just bought?? I'll cut you a deal, throw in cheap airfare to Sofia, and let you rustle my chest hair while we watch some good movies alone in the theatre (they're always empty in Bulgaria). OK?? Anyone?

Theron is the sister of Blunt in the prologue. Shit happens. Blunt goes crazy and becomes the ice queen. We follow the story of Chastain & Thor. Fast forward in time. The mac Guffin is the mirror and in the end, Charlize comes back from inside the mirror for the final battle. The End. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the fuck do they connect that shit to the first movie? Wasn't Thor's wife supposed to be dead? The movie seems to be just a bunch of filler with no purpose or story until Theron returns.
