Reality is starting to set in for you that it's actually a truly great movie, so you're now resorting to attacking the marketing before the film is even released. The word of mouth will be highly positive of this and I honestly expect it to do better the next weekend than this one. It will make its budget back for sure. I love how you're being such a tool in rooting against it.

Jesus you are so smug and delusional that it's comical. Please go on and tell me more about my feelings for a movie that I haven't seen yet. Please go on. I want to hear the laughable shite you have to say. In fact, go back and pull up the shite I've said and point out the exact sentence where I have bashed the movie - not Bullock or Clooney - but the movie as a whole.

You and your ilk have been dickriding this movie so much that anyone who doesn't full on dick ride is against the movie in your feeble circlejerk groupthink minds.

Its budget is estimated to be around $80m according to IMDB. The studio gets approximately 60% of the box office cut from every movie's release. This movie is not grossing $150 million in the US alone. Not by a long shot. If you meant worldwide, then way to go out on a big limb there chief.

As for your claim that it will make more in its second weekend than its first.



The only way it does that is if its first weekend take is so laughably low that it can't help but go up. Box office tracking for this movie has it at about $38-$40 million for its first weekend and the studio has said it expects nothing less than $40 million for its first three days. They better prepare to be disappointed. I'm going to see it tomorrow with tempered expectations. I have a feeling that all of you nuthuggers will still proclaim it to be the greatest thing ever just to save face even though you know the hyperbolic praise its getting is laughable.
