 Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club FAILED
The story is great. The action and pace look good. It was shown to people many months ago, who said it was awesome and that Arnie and Sly are back to their best. The trailer shows some good comedic lines that I think people will be entertained enough by that they will show up. Afterall, it's Arnie and Sly! I know that is not as strong as it once was and it's not as in demand so much now because of their collaboration on The Expendables and its sequel, but this is still wanted by many moviegoers, right? I don't think it can do $100m. But $80m, still a push, but it just might. Who's in? IN:Algren David OUT:Dr. Lecter matatonio MovieDude Excel Thegun Jack Sparrow Magnus TROLL:Libs

Out
BTW, fun fact: Arnie and Stallone are being dubbed by the same person in German.

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
I think it'd have a better shot at this club if Arnold were in the lead role. Like, 5% instead of 3%.

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
If it wasn't for The Last Stand and BTTH, I'd say definite, but 50-70 seems really great for it. But who knows, if everything goes right, it could play well. I really wish it was this summer.

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
I see a $50m total for it but would be happy if this makes $80m

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
You'll all change your minds (apart from David) when you see the reactions in theaters to the trailer, and when you see the reviews start to come in.

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
My only two takeaways from the trailer:
Vincent D'onofrio is always 30 pounds heavier than the last time i saw him Amy Ryan seemed like she had such a promising career at one point
Out...$50m tops. Should do well overseas I guess?

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
No, the movie looks like hogwash. I predict approximately 73 cents total.

NO ONE DID THAT I know hundreds of people that did it. Not very often does a trailer release time get a press release article. Escape Plan's trailer did.

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
Was the press release from the Razzies marking time until the trailer for this year's presumed Worst Picture frontrunner was announced?

You have a really bad sense of humour if that is funny to you. Then again, you did choose the Frat Pack over Apatow, so comedy isn't your strongest point.

 Re: Escape Plan - $80m Domestic Total Club
*sigh*
Okay, I understand, Algren's not exactly the forums' favorite and God knows, I have plenty of issues with him from time to time too. But this was, for a change, just a box-office club, sratted with no other intention than being a box-office club. There is enough bickerig and arguing going on in other threads (see the ridiculous Kristen Bell thread), so why not keep this to box-office for now. But could you at least wait until this fails before gloating?
