As the ads have become more prevalent on television, I can't help but shake this feeling that "Pacific Rim" is going to be a colossal flop domestically. It's an original idea, but it has no star power. I think it'll make up its money on the international markets, because the story of robots fighting monsters translates to any language, but I think it's going to tank in the states. Granted, I said the exact same thing about "Avatar", so what do I know. I think it'll do well mostly because a lot of boys will want to see it and parents will have to be dragged in to the theatre to supervise.

I saw a review this week that called WHITE HOUSE DOWN "dunder-headed."
......I really wish I'd screen captured that, because I'd laugh now again just as hard as when I first saw it.

I saw a review this week that called WHITE HOUSE DOWN "dunder-headed." ......I really wish I'd screen captured that, because I'd laugh now again just as hard as when I first saw it. Some choice excerpts from Roeper's review "Everyone in “White House Down” is an idiot, clinically insane, a cliché or a vehicle for shameless exploitation. Some characters go for the combo platter. For example, one guy’s an idiot and insane." "Between scenes of escalating violence and carnage in and around the White House, we see good actors reciting bad dialogue with various degrees of enthusiasm. Tatum and Foxx seem to know they’re in a dopey buddy movie. Jenkins and Woods, among others, are saddled with the impossible task of making us believe they are serious, substantial people neck-deep in a pivotal moment in American history. Not since Leslie Nielsen and Lloyd Bridges in “Airplane!” have I seen a more impressive display of keeping a straight face. Then again, “Airplane!” was supposed to be a joke."

I really want to see White House Down. It looks like a better Die Hard movie than the past couple actual Die Hard movies.

Such a shame that such a thing had to occur in the same trailer that had the POTUS taking out bad guys with a rocket launcher......

So WHD and AFTER EARTH were both Sony pictures. Reports say that another bomb could destroy their operations.
.........if they survive the summer, we might as well forget about Marvel ever getting SPIDER-MAN back at this point, because they're gonna cling to that money maker forever.

This will be two big bombs in a row for Depp. Hoping this means he goes back to smaller films where he actually acts again.

So you've got to wait till then. I don't think anyone's too shocked that Lone Ranger got destroyed by Despicable Me 2. One's a big family movie, that's coming off of a successful first one (I'd rather see a Megamind sequel), and the other is a movie about Tonto and his friend.
