No they all were, obviously your angle here is bu bu box office, as others have said 'make better films'

 

[Lord_Chief_Rocka]

Truth is MIB 3 (whilst it made money) underperformed and the shyt has been tumbling down the hill since

It still made almost 4xs the budget though

People ain't shytting on Tom Cruise career though

Tom Cruise didn't try to turn Django Unchained into a love story.

Granted TC has done better movies lately

Answered your own question because Tom Cruise was shytted on heavily during the peak of that scientology nonsense, but he worked his way back.

They weren't only AE was horrible. And obviously you have missed my point.

Most people shyt on Will Smith using the fact that he's struggled at the box office. The numbers say that he hasn't struggled overall. Arguing about the quality is subjective of course, but most people don't come at the quality they come at his financial success.

Probably right. However were they really going after TC the actor? Or just that he was cookoo?

Ok guy, most people shyt on him because of the quality of his films, but you believe what you want

Nah

Gotta have a narrative. When he was coming up he was the hottest young star. Then he was the biggest, most bankable star. Now he's the fading star with weird kids. Then when he bounces back he's the comeback kid and his whole career is appreciated in totality. Wash, rinse, repeat.

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

Nah

you think people are going to be talking about hancock in the annals of cinema history?

I haven't seen much of that. There have been multiple articles asking "Is Will Smith a Movie Star Anymore" . Being a movie star is about finances more than quality, and financially over 10 years his movies have been successful.
