I think it's made 150 mil in china alone and over 200 worldwide. It'll make a small profit.

Exactly. Logan is looking to open around 80 mil this weekend, and then you have Beauty and the Beast in two weeks, which will easily go over 100 mil for the weekend.

We've already gotten surprise hits in Split and Get Out so far.

Then the summer and fall will be huge. Probably going to be the highest gross year ever.

Star Wars will be full of leftist propaganda and will make around $2 billion. Beauty and the Beast and its gay characters will make around $1 billion. People can complain about Disney all they want, but they're gonna keep putting out hits.

It has nothing to do with Matt Damon amd everything to do with the fact that The Great Wall just looked a like a bad movie from the first trailer.

Has way more to do about this being a shitty movie and looking shitty in the previews. Damon got paid so I doubt he cares.

Keep telling yourself that. When Transformers 16 comes out people parroting this nonsense will be out in droves to further dumb themselves down and enrich Hollywood.

It's not really a Hollywood movie though. It was made by a Chinese owned company and Chinese director.

You and anyone that thinks this is an idiot. Not the they should shut there traps part, they should, but that their political views had any significant impact on movie profits. The trailers for this movie are what kept people away. It looked terrible, like Matt Damon should fire his agent for letting him do that movie terrible.

It cost around 150 to make and is at 266 worldwide. It flopped in the us but not overseas.

He took it like a champ when Kimmel grilled him on this particular failure at the Oscars.

True. But it's a unique movie.

The political stuff used to not affect me. But now it has.
For the " big mouth" actors, I'm not going unless it's a great movie (3.5 stars or better) only then can I justify it.
To say actors can't have an influence on culture, agenda, this nation, etc is naive.

Y'all are too lame. Claiming false victories. News flash nobody was going to see this movie. Politics or not.



No, no! This is a pushback by populist America.

Either that, or, you know...the movie was a piece of shite.

Whoever's idea it was to make that movie should be fired and never hired in Hollywood again. There's some movies you see from the jump and know they will be bad. This was one of them.
