Robocop remake is doing alright. It's definitely not setting the charts on fire though.

Lego still has not opened in a bunch of markets.



I won't really say Sony have been having bad weekends with their grosses. None of the movies they've distributed are flops and while it looks like it's doing badly because their grosses aren't that high, those earnings are more than enough considering how much they've spent on the production of the movies.

pompeii will need every bit of international help as possible!

three days to kill at least has a small budget. poor costner...


Robocop will do fine with international included.

3 days was very boring...  not really made for US audience. 

 

Pompeii looks bad, but reviews bad also.

 

Robocop has mixed reviews and looks OK.  remakes are tough.

 

So, I agree with your assessment.  Except, I think costner is doing fine.



It is near the end of the end....

It's doing decent overseas it doing pretty terrible domestically I doubt it will make enough money wold wide to greenlight a sequel.

Yeah, you have to wait at least another two month before there is a clear picture on its overseas earnings.  Which are pretty decent so far since its closing in on $100 million.

Well with a $100 million dollar budget and considering it only made a little over $32 million world wide its pretty safe to call Pompeii a flop so far.  Also besides the next Spiderman movie and 22 Jump Street Sony/Columbia has nothing else coming out this year that is guranteed to make a lot of money.



Oh I somehow thought Pompeii wasn't Sony's lol. Anyway OK they have one flop although I think it'll reach more than a 100 million worldwide eventually.



Sony only has US rights for Pompeii, Lionsgate has int. rights for all media sales.

It's doing good in Russia(local dist.), maybe even surpass Robocop(Sony/Disney).

Agreed, most movies make money eventually unless they are colossal bombs like The Oogieloves movie.
