Title: Expendables 3 - Flopped - Opening Weekend only $16 million
Post by: Fakechestguy on August 17, 2014, 05:03:58 PM
Variety

“The Expendables 3” is living up to its title.

Lionsgate’s actioner flopped on Friday with a franchise-worst debut of $5.9 million. It’s estimated to earn $15.3 million by Sunday, which would be the lowest opening in the series.

The pizza-loving reptiles of “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” earned enough dough to hold down the top spot in the domestic box office for the second weekend in a row.

It won't lose money....there's a lot of great movies out right now like Guardians of the Galaxy and the TMNT.  It will still be profitable and they are already moving to Expendables 4

we don't want EXPENDABLES to be a pg-13 stupid movie, it should be a rated R. if they do make E4 then they should get violent like sly did in rambo.

Vince, It flopped at the box office, meaning no interest. who said anything about profit.... but since you went there I think it will lose unless it makes alot of money in Foreign sales.

Sly spoke about expendables 4 and a female cast " The expendabelles" before the movie was released and before it was online 1 month before opening.

If a expendables 4 does come to fruition it will be sly, statham and one more guy, this shit with 20 aging fucks is pathetic.

Movie was great..
It won't flop..

It's all about the $$$

Deal.

lets do a estimation  US box office  $32M                            
Foreign (where piracy is massive) $60M
They said the movie was budgeted at 90M, it looked cheap as fuck.

Nah man, dont forget marketing budget too.

movies need to make 2 times what it cost..atleast

Poor Sly, Rocky 1 cost 900,000 and pulled in 150M

this piece of shit was filmed in cheap ass bulgaria and will still lose money.

I believe so, yes. I just talked to Jerry Bruckheimer yesterday. He said it's real, they're working on the script, they're getting close – and it all looks good," the 49-year-old actor said.

O'Brien even joked about the possibility of him appearing in the movie.

"You know what? You can play a crooked cop on crack," Lawrence jokingly replied.

Rumors of the sequel actually started a month before when Lawrence took to his social media to announce his interest in a new "Bad Boys" project, even tagging his co-star Will Smith to the post.

Budget, $90 million + $20 for Marketing
Domestic box office will drop about 60% in week 2.  

BTW, Liongate only takes about 50-55% of the box office.

Movie has to take in $190M or so b/f they start to see a profit.

We're all just like our Dads who grew up watching John Wayne movies.  Sure, they stank to high hell towards the end but you still paid respects and watched them.  Which is what I'll do :) 

The first one wasn't bad, and the second one had its moments.  The 3rd installment has no Chuck Norris, so how good could it be?  I'll buy it for 5 bux on DVD in a month.

Averaging less than $1M per person listed above the title on the poster, The Expendables 3 crashed and burned settling for a fourth place finish while overperformers Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Guardians of the Galaxy continued their strong run atop the box office
from Box Office Guru...

Fourth place belonged to the film with the most star power in the history of the medium, The Expendables 3. Seriously, is there another film that could boast this kind of lineup? The only one I can think of that might come close is X-Men: Days of Future Past. Led by megastars Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford and others, The Expendables 3 opened to an estimated $16.2M. There are 17 actors listed above the title on the promotional poster which means the movie made less than $1M per person. This isn't a scientific observation, just a very humorous one. While the series was never meant to get into megablockbuster range, this opening has to be seen as very disappointing. The first two films in the series opened to $34.8M and $28.6M.

Experts predicted 15 mil over a month ago  so they're called experts for something .

To break even for what? It's the first three days of release. Come talk to me 9 months from now, when Sly is rubbing his taint with the global and dvd sales.

Face it guys, these actors are more popular outside of America. The U.S. may just be the worst major market for them at this point.

When the movie does as you expect in weekend release, then the movie basically sells itself from then on ....

There's a possibility the movie will stick around and make more money......

but trust me, You can only go around with the "failed,flopped,tanked,trashed" tittles running your legacy for so long...  these guys were blockbusters hit makers once They have an image and ego bigger than you can ever imagine...

They don't want to embarrass themselves by saying "hey I'm still popular in China and Guatemala hoping the movie will do decent in dvd sales 10 months for now.

Specially when you go to every single media outlet in the USA, promoting it weeks prior its release"


Sad.
