The Dora movie will totally outshine this at the box office. -- nm - Beaker Jul 18, 10:45
Definitely looks fun but I have zero investment in the FF franchise so I'm not likely to start now -- nm - oblique Jul 18, 10:35 3
- Suffice it to say that everybody in the franchise was a villain, a hero, and dead at some point. (NM) - Marlowe Jul 18, 10:44
- This seems to have zero actual F&F involvement aside from their names. It's the perfect time to get invested. -- nm - Shaun Jul 18, 10:37
- Would you see it if they were original characters named Kick-Ass and Ass-Kicker? -- nm - Max Jul 18, 10:36
The $65 million tracking for this is way low. It's a $100 million or more opening, imo. -- nm - Inigo Jul 18, 10:17 12
- Is it? I dunno... Saw a few ads, looks fun, but they aren't really playing up the F&F angle. Which makes it just a buddy action flick. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jul 18, 10:28 4
  - yeah, but it's a buddy action flick with The Rock, Statham and Idris Elba -- nm - decline Jul 18, 10:31
  - So was Rush Hour. -- nm - Max Jul 18, 10:31
  - It's an angle that doesn't really need to be made imo. It's Statham and Rock as their F&F characters. - Will Hunting Jul 18, 10:29 1
    - Mike Oxmaul. -- nm - Shaun Jul 18, 10:33
- I feel like The Rock is probably one of the top stars, of this decade--Everything he's in turns to gold -- nm - Flavorize Jul 18, 10:24 2
  - Rampage: $428M WW. Skyscraper: $304M WW (and those were 2 awful movies) -- nm - decline Jul 18, 10:33
  - The next Tom Cruise! -- (link) - David Jul 18, 10:25 [youtube]
- I saw the $85 price over there, and easily went long. -- nm - Shaun Jul 18, 10:21
- It's only tracking at 65? That's staggeringly low imo. - Will Hunting Jul 18, 10:17 2
  - I was just having this discussion with a BOP writer. He scoffed at the notion of $100 million, which absolutely mystified me. -- nm - David Jul 18, 10:23 1
    - I'm not going to say 100mil is in the bag...but below 80 would really surprise me. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 18, 10:26
Say the line, Bart! -- nm* - Qale Jul 18, 10:14 1
- "Huh, guess he really is black Superman." -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 18, 10:15
We've never seen an F&F movie, but someone I live with has decided we will be seeing this Opening Weekend. -- nm - Diva Jul 18, 10:11 4
- the premiere action franchise in Hollywood history. -- nm - Remlik Jul 18, 10:15 1
  - Now that the MCU is taking a break, it's now the top superhero franchise in the game. -- nm - Shaun Jul 18, 10:16
- Less "familia", more bad-ass. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 18, 10:12
- you married a very smart man :) -- nm - decline Jul 18, 10:11
