I can't wait to see how bad Independence Day 2 will do.
It surprises me that this movie is doing poorly. ID2 really is going to be DOA. I wonder exactly how terrified people are that Cruise is no longer the undisputable King of Hollywood.

I still have no idea what the fuck "The Fault in our Stars" even is. Ok, that's a lie. I just googled it. A teener cancer movie? Sounds like some great feelgood stuff, but I'm not surprised that it would do well if it was competently made.

Edge of Tomorrow has made about 140 million dollars. If that's the definition of "doing poorly" then the movie industry is finished.

Net and Gross are two different things. It cost 178 to make. So 140 isn't quite as good as it sounds at first blush.

Unless, and I'm asking, do they start negative? So its actually made 318? I kinda doubt that they do, but I don't fukkin know.

The way I read that is that it hasn't made back the money it cost to make, and it's possible (though probably unlikely) that it might not break even.

When a movie fails to break even that is a pretty fair metric for "doing poorly".

Column, your opinions are real retarded real often, sir. Like, literally the entire forum agrees. It's time to reflect inward, bro.

While I didn't think it was as good as some of the people in this thread are making it out to be comparing it to Transformers is pretty stupid even for you.

I never said it was as bad as transformers, I already gave my review earlier. Keep up son

But I guarantee I will see this kid in the Transformers thread with another glowing review. He is the type.

The movie was mediocre as fuck, anyone who rates this over a 6 needs to get his head checked.

Column, It's not your opinion that is the problem. Your sperging and general negativity would be fine if you were a good poster. But you are not. Your posts are alarmingly bad. Even kegkilla and astro shit out a flower every now and again, but I have yet to see a single good post by you. Please, link me a single good post you have made and prove me wrong.

Also, this movie was really good. Tom Cruise is crazy, but he is the perfect type of crazy for this role.

I was the catalyst for removing Sean for good. No one poster has done more for this board then me.

You on the other hand are nobody, you add nothing to every conversation, and hang on my every word.
Myself, Keg, Astro we are the celebs, and you will always be the fan. The fact that you explain that you read my every post tells me you are exactly as I describe you to be.

In the terms of this board no one knows you exist. The fact I'm even turning my attention to a person I never even seen post before must make you so excited.

Thinking of seeing this only because it looks like Tom Cruise might die a lot, and i expect that to be satisfying. Can someone please confirm or refute my theory?

Still waiting on a single good post link.
