Wedemeyer posted:It's happened. Someone put this permanently onto themselves. That's a perfect example of a really talented artist whose skills and time have been completely wasted. But he was probably paid a shitton of money by the studio so good for him. Also this movie will both be really bad and make a ton of money. And then be forgotten in a year.

It's a well executed tattoo, which is not to be confused with a good idea.

10 years ago everyone loved Will Smith. Then he made a bunch if lovely decisions, a lot of them related to trying to launch Jaden's career, and now he's essentially box office poison.

Even Waterworld was ultimately a financial success. I think Pluto Nash might be one of the last real bombs (well maybe John Carter was too but Disney is a whole nother thing with marketing and merchandising)

I've heard that's ultimately what got him killed off prior to the events of the Independence Day sequel, trying to make his kid IRL his kid in the movie and I guess Emerich or whoever just wasn't having it.

Don't forget that dummy who got a Ghostbusters 2016 tatoo before the trailer even dropped. Some people are just loving idiots.

You have to beat the average return and/or exceed expectations to be a success. Otherwise if you can't beat the opportunity cost of making the movie then you're still considered a failure even if you didn't actively lose money

This is hilarious, since he already tried to give his kid a summer blockbuster in After Earth, and we know how that turned out. ID4: 2 probably would have paid him a shot load of money to be in that movie. eSports Chaebol posted:movies bombing is actually really rare now It also helps that movies are making a lot of money internationally, especially tent-pole movies, so movies can be financially viable even if it does not make as much in the US. Example, The transformers series has been declining financially since the second one, but the international numbers make up for it, especially China.

Imagine for a moment if you will that Harley Quinn wasn't a character in this movie, just the rest of the ensemble. Completely excised from the movie and all trailers. Yeah. Makes you realise how much the movie is banking on the sex appeal of one attractive woman to save it because everything else in those trailers is utterly forgettable.

He asked for 40 million and the produces were all like "Heh, do you think you're Will Smith from twenty years ago?" and then decided to kill him off rather than make a counter offer.

However the worst part was absolutely Jaden. Kid just can't act worth a poo poo.

Suicide Squad seems like a prime candidate to be in constant rotation on FX DVD on TV or whatever the equivalent of that is in 2016. Or at least replace the previous Fantastic Four's rotation in daytime cable TV runs.

GBS have no such luxury.

downey jr. gets 75 million clams for starring in a cgi clusterfuck if I was a big time actor as soon as I made 10 mil I'd find a quiet spot in the northeast and live off the interest and play video games forever

Ryan Reynolds not only starred in Deadpool but he also produced it so god knows how much money he's raking in from that crazy rollercoaster. It made almost as much money as Iron Man 3 but cost about $150 million less to make.

Second only to Passion of the christ.

naem posted:Dead pool was "good" and "fun" and "a good movie" They can't "just" do that because doing that entails risk and lord forbid they risk even one loving penny, one goddamn cent with a competent writer, director and crew when they can just nickel and dime with total hacks and crank some safe, tepid bullshit out. But if rich actors want to put their own money up then that's all fine.
