Transformers Movie Info
what has the 2009 box office so far taught you?
Well, it's July and it seems to me that I already know about the way the box office this year works. Here's mine Good movies make money, Examples: 3 of the 4 $200 million grossers have 78% or above on the tomato meter. (Star Trek, UP, and The Hangover) This is good news for Harry Potter 6, Bruno, Funny People and Inglorious Basterds, which will all probably be good. Movies that are government themed will probably fail (The International, Duplicity and State of Play) Public Enemies doesn't count cause it a crime movie by Michael Mann. Movies that are fun or in 3D will probably do well (Monsters Vs. Aliens, Paul Blart, Transformers 2) If you release a female-skewing movie during a time without chick flicks, it'll do really good. (The Proposal) So what have you learned from this year's box office and what movies do you think will be blockbusters?
Public Comments
- 2009 was a year of disappointment, overblown hype, and pleasant surprises (some not recognized enough-Drag Me to Hell,..some overly-complimented-The Hangover, great comedy but not THE BEST).
Yeah, movies may make tons of dough, but later on they will collect dust on the shelves/not queued on Netflix/etc.
I have a feeling there will be some more surprises this fall/winter but not enough to make up for the terrible spring/summer.
Harry Potter will do well and be good but it won't be enough.
2009 = Letdown
- Transformers 2 sucks.
- I`ve learned that you can make a shoddy movie, but if it has lots of special effects, brainless idiots will fork out ten bucks to go see it in the thousands.
*cough* transformers 2 *end cough*
