It may not suck (I still think it probably will) But it will almost certainly bomb. Rogue One, Passengers and Sing will devour this. Terrible release date and shitty marketing will be it's downfall. plus Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard may be talented actors, but they have zero star power when it comes to drawing in a crowd. and this is giving off major Prince of Persia vibes to me, I hope I'm wrong. but I will be shocked if this gets good reviews and does well.

 why are we assuming Passengers doesn't have a chance of flopping? The marketing for that is almost nonexistent. I can see it more likely being the one that's pushed back. I barely see any social media presence for Sing too.

Probably the film isn't done yet, not to mention it wouldn't really be a festival fit. I mean no one is saying the same for Passengers for instance

 

Wasn't this filmed a while ago? I haven't followed it closely but I think I read something like that.

Passengers, in this case, is known to still be in post production. Heck, they had re-shoots just a week ago.

Marketing hasnt gone into high gear it. How do you know it is not selling ?

 

It's a video game movie you know what's coming

Diversity is great but quality is vastly more important and video game film adaptations have been dire.

 

 

 

Well, judging from reviews BvS is a piece of shit (which i disagree with btw). Yet it almost did $900m. That's what i'm talking about.

We need another trailer I think. People have been talking about Trailer 1 since it was shown at cinemacon back in early April.

At least you have a trailer (looking at you, Passengers....)

I'm hoping they push back Passengers for the sake of both projects.

I don't think they are going to, since they just released a poster that is going up in theaters and just started the official facebook page, twitter account and instagram account.  I think they are preparing to ramp up.

 

I think Rogue One is the bigger issue, though, in terms of crowded box office.

 

I want them both to do well.  Passengers is my most anticipated film of the year, but I'd really like Fassy to have AC work out for him, too.

I just don't want to hear more about projects completely bombing out again in 2016. I won't be surprised if all these films cannibalize each other. We'll

see how well the counterprogramming against Rogue One does

That's quite clearly not going to happen at this point.

And I don't think Passengers moving would benefit it. I can see how it would benefit this though...

Genuinely curiuous why people talk about video games movie adaptations as if it was a genre, which it is not IMO.

How would moving away from Star Wars not benefit it? The general audience as of now is more aware of Rogue One and Assassin's Creed than they are Passengers. The marketing for the movie is just not there right now, three months before its premiere.

They've been stereotyped and can't be thought of as anything else despite the material that's there

People think the actors alone will make it huge. Which is kind of silly

And everything we've heard from everyone who's seen all or part of it is enthusiastic.  So far, except for the lawsuit freezing some of the special effects so they had to go a different route, we have heard nothing even neutral about it.

 

Which isn't to say I won't be holding my breath until the first reviews come in, because I will, but so far it sounds fantastic.
