Threads like this make you realize that one of the most bankable stars in Hollywood now is...Melissa McCarthy

Haven't seen any of those but would like to see Gunman, Tomorrowland and Crimson Peak.

I couldn't get over how old Sean Penn face looked and how young his body looked...no homo...

I've had to watch it twice ...and i still don't know if his body was cgi

I didnt see 1 ad for this film. Not 1. They sent that out to die. I didnt even know it was a movie until this weekend when I saw a review for it.

This is probably pretty smart of the studio...they realized it wasn't going to do well regardless so they did not go overboard with marketing...

As someone with some insight into hollywood movie making I can tell you that marketing cost alone can keep a film from being profitable...

That gods of egypt or whatever...if they put a lot of marketing dollars behind it...that movie is going to go down as one of the biggest flops...OF ALL TIME

@TheGodling is on point in this thread imo.

The real test will be when they change actors in Marvel movies. If they are making it one big story and a new actor is playing Iron Man and Chris Hemsworth I think that might turn off many people. Sure, they changed Hulk but that movie feels like its been forgotten and not much that happened in it has had effects on the other movies and they still don't have a solo Mark Ruffalo Hulk movie.

they will have to kill off people and bring in new ones

i don't see RDJ being in ironman 5 and then they bring in some completely new guy in the next movie... with everyone acting like it's the same ironman

they'll more than likely kill off RDJ and have him pass on the suit.. or leave him out of it and tell other stories

i mean they got the shyt fleshed out till like 2019 right now... i'm sure they have contracts signed or plans in place to drop people

Del Toro needs chill on the films to get Monster on Cable TV
