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.
WoooSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
