Mee too... what happened

I dont know. I saw the previews for it when I went to the movies a couple months ago and I was like :krs: "White ppl bout to EAT with this movie!" But I guess not. White ppl aint on this happy go lucky sh*t anymore with the country being in the shape it's in. They lookin at movies like that now with the :birdman: face. lol

I guess it's failing because it looks too forced. The greatest singalong musicals and great movies in general usually sort of happen magically. You can't plan it out like that

^^^^ Oh really? I didnt know that.

I never saw Mamma Mia, but just the previews for ROA seemed way too over teh top and forced. Even when I saw the initial preview in the movies after it went off and the billing showed all you heard was silence and popcorn crunching. lol

I agree, except I would add Tom Cruise has repelled many.

exactly, i was reading some comments earlier about the movie and alot of white people are tired of tom cruise. this looks like another one of his crazy antics. his oprah stunt hurt him more than he knows. hes hit or miss now. mission impossible 4 is still one of my fav. movies ever tho.

tom cruise was in that shyt? i seen the commercial like 10x and i never knew that or saw him

They've done a horrible job marketing this shyt. I can't tell you how many people don't even know Tom Cruise is the star.

Cruise isn't the star...the leads are two unknowns

Thats my boy bombed too, thank god.
Its like peeps are saving all their money for spidey, expendables 2 & TDKR
The stripper movie will break even only because of Matt McConaughey
Whats special about mcconaughey? better still when was his last hit? you crushing on dude or something? :leon:
its a musical
how good did they expect it to do
The moment I saw the trailer I said to myself havent musicals died out already? :why: highschool musical, hairspray,mamma mia, glee that shyt has been played out.Hollywood should've been cognisant to this 4 years ago.
they need to push some nikkas like mike epps or hate to say this hart
or chappelle or chris rock and make eddie do a r rated flick
they tried to give the ball to kevin hart but he aint got it.As for the jews someone will turn up
IMO rock of ages was supposed to be a blockbuster. Julianne Hough is not a leading actress that's for sure.
I dont understand how they could have all those stars but put 2 unknowns in the lead :what:
It's going to flat this year. Spider Man will disappoint alot of people.
u realize that too huh? :scheme:
