spazz91 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 They were drunk and didn't know any better.. It's the same movie all over again.. Bet if they had to do it all over again and the public knew what this was prior to seeing it, it wouldn't have made the $$$$ it did.. It just wasn't funny was the big problem.. A third one would probably still do ok. They would need to make it more original (how I have no idea) if they wanted to continue it past a third one though.

rb02 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 only 48 million from Prom. Its done now. Done? It's a guaranteed money-maker at this point, even if legs here get worse and worse. So much for the myth of the demise of the R rated blockbuster, though people will still blame the R ratiing for not making more money, never considering that a PG-13 might have deterred some adults from going to a movie of this nature in the first place, and that it was not exactly a family film to begin with.

Really? How much did Prometheus cost to produce? It looks pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kells Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 We're already hearing rumblings about a Justice League movie. They have to be thinking about a Batman reboot to go along with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb02 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Really?How much did Prometheus cost to produce? It looks pricey.130M. So it should match that domestic, at the least; and more than double it with ease worldwide. Solid hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb02 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) That said, I'm sure some skunk at Deadline is going to say that it had a 125M marketing campaign, and that the studios only keep 35% of the gross, and that it won't make more than a few million in ancillary and that therefore it lost millions.

baumer Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 MIB will hit 170. It should stabilize starting next weekend. Proms drop is normal. I don't think WOM is terrible but it still should drop 55% or more next weekend. Swaths drop is shocking to me. 60%! WTF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid hit.When did Fox become one of the smartest studios? They used to be the dumbest (after Universal).Maybe the smart drug from Rise of the Planet of the Apes is based on reality.

The Dark Alfred Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 That is a sucker punch number for my Prometheus prediction. I really don't get the negative reception, I thought it was a good film and the UK audience seemed to like it a lot, so 50m opening and 150m total is disappointing. Probably the biggest disappointment of the year for me unless RoA misses 100m and TDKR 500m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
