50% is downright wrong, I watched the movie the last night and it’s noway near that bad. It’s the best Tomb Raider movie by far, it’s looks stunning and the action scenes are awesome. It’s not really cheesy as people might of been expecting either. In my opinion it’s a 80%-85% movie.

Quite a list of garbage movies. Shocking that there hasn’t even been a single decent video game based movie ever.



Well, if you are going to be keeping track of the BO, just keep in mind that this film has to make $188M to break even on its budget alone. Probably at least $230M-$250M when taking into account the marketing budget. I kinda doubt its going to be making that kind of money, but we'll see.

I think is possible. Is still on track on the expectations of opening in US around 22-24 millions while in China is on the way to open around 40-45 millions. For the audience an 50% on Rotten falls into the "good enough" category,I think it'll do fine at the Box Office.

It has some time to make good money. There is no major release in the coming weeks if i'm not mistaken (only big ones like PR are expected to flop).
I think the movie will make enough to be profitable.



Mortal Kombat still the top videogame movie huh?

I thought GoldenEye was the best videogame movie of all time...

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Ready Player One is coming out soon. Pacific Rim and Black Panther will provide it enough competition.

Everething is possible when you factor China BO. 

I doubt this movie will lose money in the long run.

I don't know.  PR may underperform, but that doesn't mean it still can't draw away audiences from TR.  You also have Sherlock Gnome, which is going to attract families.  And don't forget BP, which is still doing great.  It will most likely have just a drop of 35%-40% next weekend, which is smaller than the drop TR will most likely see, 50%-60%, depending on word of mouth.  Then, on its 3rd weekend you have Ready Player One releasing.  That's going to attract gamers and the average moviegoer, as well as families, more than a TR film.  After that weekend, its just going to be picking at scraps. 

And to compare it to the Angelina Jolie film, that one opened with $47.7M, didn't have horrible drops, and ended up at $131.2M at the DBO.  That's a multiplier of 2.75x.  If this one reaches $23M this weekend, and sees the same multiplier, that would put DBO at just $63.25M.  FBO is going to have to do some very heavy lifting if it's going to reach that $230M-$250M.
