Sure, but you spend a lot of time on a box office forum. I doubt you're what's considered the "general high school public" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmasterclay Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I mean even besides the questionable politics I just think it looks bad. It's using the same music and editing as the Accountant did, at least from the trailers. That was a bad, bad, bad, bad, BAD movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Also, I certainly took it too far. That's half my schtick. I do think that the opening scene is yikkkkes and alot of the stuff with the training just screams Act of Valor to me. But to each their own! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 The Accountant was good. And this has potential for being a dad movie staple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That One Girl Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Gonna be scored by Steven Price (Gravity, Fury, The Hunt, Suicide Squad, Attack the Block, World's End, upcoming Baby Driver).

This one doesn't look as good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockingjay Raphael Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The Accountant was a dumb but fun movie, this one seems just dumb. And, of course, our "hero" doesn't have half of the same charisma/charm of Affleck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Hunt Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 finally watched the trailer. it doesn't look that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The Accountant was really good. I actually just watched the trailer because of all the discussing generated. It looks generic as hell. Box office wise maybe 7-8M OW? Won't surprise me if it sinks wiht a 5M OW or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakiyyah6 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) I think this film is a damn near guaranteed non starter. The plot looks generic, nobody but 12 year olds care about the lead and no Keaton is not a draw no matter how much fanboys want him to be.

marveldcfox Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 (edited) DAMNNNNNNNNNNN.....this looks off the charts. Kingsman 2 really should be releasing in August. With the way sequels have kinda underperformed this year..I won't be shocked if Kingsman 2 does only 90M domestic. Maybe it gets lucky and matches first one domestic. This and Kingsman 2 will eat into each others boxoffice because both are targeting similar audience. This looks a bit more serious and I am sure there will be some nice funny moments with Keaton but still...oh and it releases a week before so what if it surprises and does $35+ OW...Kingsman 2 will be slightly affected. Oh btw Kingsman 2 has a 140+ million budget. I can smell a massive under performer. I hope I am wrong because Kingsman was a a blast and I want 2nd one to be a big hit so that we can get a 3rd one. It's the best bond franchise out now! Edited June 20, 2017 by marveldcfox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
