I'm positive at this point, Hollywood's trying to figure out another Emma Stone/Ryan Gosling vehicle. 3rd time's the charm, it seems. (The gangster flick really got screwed by the unfortunate timing and the fact that Emma Stone is really unbelievable as a femme fatale 40's type.)

If they go again, it'll be movie number four. Besides LLL and the gangster movie, they had Crazy, Stupid, Love the movie that has to be the reason Hollywood keeps putting them together.

Passengers really got helped by that second weekend hold. It definitely could have been much, much worse. I really think it got helped by Rogue One and Sing being sold out, so people would go see it instead.

I'm hoping since it wasn't a flat out bomb, Hollywood might be willing to pair Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt again.

Possibly, if it's a completely different genre but Lawrence and Pratt would have to get paid a lot less, the next time around.

I'm not sure if the total box office for Live By Night will ever reach what Gangster Squad did in its opening weekend ($17M on its way to $46M domestic, $105.2M worldwide). WB shouldn't have bothered with a qualifying release but kept it away from awards season completely. Lots of failed Oscar hopefuls manage to make a decent amount if they're given a bit of breathing room from the real contenders.

Very happy to see Rogue One pass $1 Billion World Wide 

[thuganomics85]

Between Split and The Visit, M. Night Shymalan seems to have found a winning strategy of just simply making smaller films and providing decent thrills, as oppose to going big and just embarrassing himself with ridiculous twists and storylines.  Good for him.  It doesn't how bad some of his past films were, but I still believed that the old M. Night was still in there.

Nice to see Shymalan return from the wilderness, I always thought the criticism was a little excessive (except Avatar).

Makes sense that the critics and audiences responded to a movie

that's a stealth sequel to his best, Unbreakable.

Don't let a 4-year-old develop your studio movie.

The key line: Paramount was in the strange bind of trying to create an all-new toy-selling franchise, while also delivering blockbuster action on a $125 million budget.

If the reports are true about the original design of the monsters frightening children so much that the studio had the CGI for the entire movie completely redone, that would run up the costs.

If Vin Diesel headlines a movie without Fast and/or Furious in the title, he doesn't do that well.

[starri]

True, but even crappy action movies in the wasteland of January and February tend to do marginally well because there's nothing else to see.

But Vin Diesel is a douchebag of the highest order, so this couldn't have happened to a better person.

It trended ahead of predictions that they'd be in the low 40's.

I do think the studio was probably a lot more realistic about the diminishing returns than Lionsgate was about the Divergent franchise. They didn't make some dumheaded move to split Fifty Shades Freed into two movies, and they filmed both movies together.

The first Fifty Shades had Valentine's Day and President's Day weekend in its opening weekend, so this one may prove a little less front-loaded overall. Tomorrow will be a big day for FSD (and theaters as a whole).

Monster Trucks had a bigger budget than The Lego Batman. That's nuts.

Looks like Great Wall killed it in China. Not so much here.

Probably for the speculation that it was racist, which apparently it isn't.

Movie? No. Marketing? Yes.

As I've said elsewhere:

Those who can, do.

Those who cant, teach.

Those who can't teach, administrate.

Those who can't teach or administrate, work in marketing.

[Bruinsfan]

Early reviews I've read said it wasn't racist, but also wasn't really all that good. I'll probably see it at some point, but right now I'm more eager to see A Cure for Wellness and the John Wick sequel, which means I may have to catch it at Redbox.

Well, at least they covered the $2.5 million they spent on that Super Bowl ad.

Dane DeHaan...you may look like Leo but damn you don't have his touch/luck.

I somehow missed that ad. I have never seen a preview for this movie. But it looks creepy and scary as hell. I would love to see this movie. If it's still around this weekend, I certainly will.

He's not as handsome as Leo -- but I do hope Valerian is good and does good.

Well, that's a hell of a way to follow being the star of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.  To be fair to Felicity Jones, I heard this film got delayed a lot, so she probably wasn't even cast yet for Rogue One when they made this.  Still not sure what she or Nicholas Hoult saw in this though (can't say the same for either Ben Kingsley or Anthony Hopkins, as both of them are at the stage where they are perfectly happy to just camp it up in a bad film for a sweet, sweet paycheck!)

No kidding:

Quote

The film was scheduled to be released on October 30, 2015, by Relativity Media. However, when Relativity filed for bankruptcy, producers had put the film back on the market. In September 2015, it was announced Open Road Films would distribute the film apart of an audit statement. In October 2015, Open Road set an April 1, 2016, release date for the film. It was then pushed back to August 19. In September 2016, it was pushed back to February 3, 2017. In January 2017, the film was pushed back to February 24, 2017.  

And before all that, Amber Heard and Zac Efron were announced as the stars in May 2013, and it was supposed to start filming that fall. That casting fell through and the project didn't actually roll until May 2014. Still, nearly three years ago at this point, so a lot has changed with Felicity's career since then. Hoult just turned 27 but given Hollywood casting, he was probably grateful to do something besides a comic book movie or playing a high school kid.

Tim Timmerman: Hope of America   $62,488 | 12 Theaters | $5,207 Avg. | $62,489    

 

*When I started listing the budgets here, I said that the figure isn't always available and sometimes the number the studio admits to at first, turns out not to be the most accurate. With Moonlight, in the past you can see I've noted its budget as under $5 million, then followed Wikipedia listing it at $5M, and in discussing the Best Picture win, the people involved have been noting a $1.5M budget.  On its opening weekend, The Founder reportedly had a $7 million budget (still listed on its IMDb page), but shortly theareafter, a lawsuit from a company that helped finance the movie stated the budget at $25 million! Percentage-wise, that's the most flagrantly under-reported budget I've ever seen in my years of following the movie business.
