Jem to make barely over a million this weekend. It'll make back its five million budget, but not be a success.
Good. You f*** with the fans, you get what's coming to you.

Jem to make barely over a million this weekend. I'll make back its five million budget, but not be a success. Good. You f*** with the fans, you get what's coming to you. The beauty of the Blumhouse model is that they know going in that some of their movies won't do any business but, like you said, they're protected from that by the low budgets. Sometimes they finance movies that they end up shelving (Town That Dread Sundown, Stretch, Not Safe For Work, Mockingbird), some of which are almost inarguably unfinished (Mercy). And with this one it's been expected to die a death for quite a while. But it doesn't matter as long as they're able to keep ringing up (at minimum) base hits like those goddamn Purge movies, The Boy Next Door, Insidious 3, The Gift, The Visit, Unfriended, etc. I find the fan outrage toward BH's Jem entertaining. A fun wrinkle as Blumhouse 2015 draws to a close, people on the internet getting stirred up about mean old Jason Blum ruining cartoons toy commercials. The man needs to be held accountable for greater crimes (The Gallows, Area 51). I like how he making sport of how pissed people are and at how these ones just didn't strike oil. Number 1 troll at the multiplexes! I love that Jason Blum is trying really hard to be cinema's Vince McMahon.

Jason Blum.....just accept that you made a dud and everyone knew it before even seeing it. Oh and people have seen it and they have called it bad. Look at Rotten Tomatoes.

Right, if I see a pie with chunks of tree bark in it on display at my bakery, I don't need to buy and eat it to tell them that pie sucks.

Who was asking for a Jem movie in 2015 Who was asking for a Zorro movie in 1998? Who was asking for a Pirates of the Caribbean movie in 2003? Who was asking for a 21 Jump Street movie in 2012? Who asks for half the movies out there? But in those 3 movies' cases, the star power and marketing was there and was quite overwhelming. It's much weirder to think that the company behind TRANSFORMERS pushes a JEM movie out there with the complete anti-thesis of the former's marketing. Heck, Hasbro didn't even try to create any new toys to tie into the toy-and-cartoon-inspired movie (come to think of it, has there been ANY Jem merch in recent years, not counting the IDW comic?) This wasn't intended to do big numbers; I think this was just an experiment to see how making a very low-level movie based on a toy-line product would do. Not even sure if even consider this a bomb (although word of mouth after those numbers came out surely did not help whatever point they were trying to prove to themselves and/or others)...

Damn, Goosebumps got some staying power! Yeah you had to expect that and Hotel Transylvania to stick pretty well this time of year. It helps that they're both pretty decent.

Good to have legit children halloween movies.
