:why:

Another weekend, another big-budget box office disappointment. This time it’s Warner Bros.-Legendary Pictures’ $185 million-budgeted “Pacific Rim,” which collected just $38.3 million domestically. But the film saw better results overseas, earning $53 million from 38 territories.

As “Pacific Rim” floundered domestically, the battle for No. 1 came down to a pair of sequels: Universal’s toon holdover, “Despicable Me 2,” estimated $44.8 million in its second frame, down 46%, while “Grown Ups 2” earned $42.5 million. So far Stateside, “Despicable Me 2″ has grossed an outstanding $229 million, with $472.4 million worldwide.

Globally, it was a close race for top ranking this weekend between “Despicable Me 2,” which collected $100.3 million worldwide, and “Pacific Rim’s” $91.3 million global weekend tally.

Even though “Pac Rim” — the monster mash-up from visionary director Guillermo del Toro — disappointed Stateside, the overall box office was up more than 20% over the same frame last year, continuing the summer’s record-setting pace. »

Same way Despicable Me did on its second week, the family crowd won. That, and Pacific Rim didn't garner a mass interest like many hoped it would.

Gang violence...
pacific rim was a naked attempt at creating a movie built for several large foreign markets (primarily asian). it was watered down in terms of what most americans want to see. if you are a kid that grew up heavily into power rangers or godzilla, then it was good for you, every other 'merican could give a shyt about that. transformers speaks more directly to them with recognizable muscle cars, shia lebouf, megan fox, and terrible jokes.

it may flop here, but it may do well in china and korea

everybody involved with grownups 2 should be ashamed of themselves. there are rumors that there literally was no script on the first day of shooting. they just randomly shot stuff. if you are entertained by this trash then i just dont know what to say to you...

No real famous actors in it. Idris Elba and Ron Perlman are dope but not the biggest name actors out there
