Nope. It's latest predicted release title will be "Snow Latina and the Seven CGI Generated AI Turds." But you've got the part right that even when being streamed for free, folks will stay away from it in droves.
Funny, everyone has hated this movie for over 6 months, I thought it was already out by the responses, but the hatred is so strong they're putting it out anyway? It's like the democrats constantly raising your taxes no matter what you say.
I dont think they realize how unlikeable many of these actors are, and people are sick of their bs, and the crap being pushed by the writers/directors/producers.
@@andreaso8886 Same, I liked it. But the advertising was confused, and then you got the spoiler reviews, like that Cavill was not going to be much in it. I presume it's not going to get a sequel. Which is bit of a pity, as that end stinger scene kind of looked potentially promising. Okay, the spoiler alert should probably go here. I think it might have worked better if the characters the main characters thinks she has imagined turned out to be "real" real, not just confused memories of her own past, and she had turned out to be somebody who knew them, so that we would have gotten the "real" "Argylle" Cavill at some point into the story, and that ending action sequence would have had four people in it, not just her and him. A lot of the complaints I have seen is that they wanted to see Cavill as a real James Bond type character in the movie, not just the imaginary version, and that Bryce Dallas Howard is not exactly a convincing action heroine these days being a bit overweight and so on, so having her as one in that group of four might have worked better than having her suddenly turn into some sort of superspy, comedy or not, especially since she didn't show any real signs of those skills before she had her memories returned. With memory loss stories you kind of expect that the character would show some of those skills before she gets her memories back, and be surprised by them, as a foreshadowing that that might be the case.
Megalopolis should not really be on the list as "Hollywood" (the studios and businesses behind big mainstream movies) did not want it and did not put up a lot of money to make or distribute it. It was mostly all Francis Ford Coppola who is definitely not Hollywood anymore and hasn't been one of their guys for a while. Cancel Reply
I haven't been to a movie theater since before Covid. I don't see that changing any time soon. However, I watched The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare when it was released to streaming. I loved it!
Haven't been able to go to a movie theater in my hometown since Covid because they didn't open back up after that nonsense, and I'm not driving 40 minutes down a toll road that's over $6 each way just because of that nonsense that went on in 2020, the people running the show back then screwed the pooch playing their little games and I'm not paying one more cent over it than I have to.
Costner quit the most popular series since GOT to make a boring ego-fest of a movie that wasn't interesting as a western or a personality piece. That had to be the biggest blunder on this list--going from spectacularly successful to epic boredom, and the worst part is that much of the loss came from Costner's own pocket. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
Sick and tired of Hollywood trolling the public. Tarantino thinks its so clever, but I got news for him, the _fuck_ is on him and his Hollywood buddies. The days of the billion dollar blockbuster are fast coming to an end, and all those fancy mansions in southern California wont be worth a bucket of piss, when its all over.
Thank you for talking about Argylle. For some reason Honest Trailers has ignored it even though the film cries out for them with a plotline which is unbelievable at best.
Like one horrible movie "The Return", they made the mistake of putting out a trailer. Bet they never do that again. I saw this movie and then saw they put out a trailer. I went quickly there to warn people, but found it infested with paid studio flunkies praising it to heaven.
Unless you are a constant visitor to cinemas, it is hard to know what’s showing. Cinemas no longer post their films outside to promote their products. First time hearing about these projects, but one, which were gone before hearing about them.
Argylle was a movie I was looking forward to, but found very disappointing. None of it made any sense. I would also have liked to have seen a lot more of Dua Lipa an a lot less of Bryce Dallas Howard. The only other movie I watched on your list list was Madame Web. That was just awful.
@@SamBrickell And when they chose to just ignore all the "racist" and "Misogynistic" and "deplorable" audiences who weren't pedos, fascists or communists, they just stopped asking.
Considering a family of 4 costs over a hundred bucks with food and tickets, nothing has come out that warrants going to a theater anymore. In a few weeks they'll be streaming anyway. At home my TV is almost as big as those dinky multiplexes with a sound system just as good. And I don't have to watch 30 minutes of commercials beforehand and listen to people on their phones, eating like animals and talking. The time of the theatrical experience died with Endgame and Force Awakens. Ok. I did go back for the Dune movies
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is awesome! Failure at the box office was due to poor marketing & promotion. I've seen it streaming at least 6-8 times already. Such a great cast. Absolutely love it!
I really liked Horizon and would have watched it in a theater if I knew about it. But I like westerns. What more could you ask - wagon trains, outlaws, U.S. cavalry, conflicts between native Americans and settlers, an under-spoken hero, an unusually pretty prostitute with a not so golden heart and great scenery! I’m all in!
I actually saw Ungentlemanly Warfare and loved it! Enjoyable, good charcters, lots of action, and deft touches of humor, this really should have been a big hit!
I never heard of Borderlands before. I started watching it a couple of weeks ago on Showtime. It was pretty bad even with big names in it like Cate Blanchett. I never finsished watching it and I probably won;t finish watching it anytime soon.
The second Joker was just weird. It felt like the middle film in a trilogy, and then went nowhere since they offed the character. Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare was quite entertaining.
Ministry of Ungentlemanly warfare was actually a really good fun movie. Sometimes II fear good movies though for no ryme or reason fall through the cracks... Think the Carl Urban Dredd movie as a good example of that. No a cult movie but did terribly at the cinema (In that case due to expectations from the Stalone Dredd movie). Ministry was very much a great to watch romp with more than a hint of Tarantino about it.
Dredd had the problem that the people in charge refused to release it in 2D and only allowed the 3D version to be shown. That cut the audience in half (at least) right away. I love 3D and have a 3D TV, and it's one of the best 3D movies I've ever seen apart from Avatar, but many people hate 3D with a passion.
Joker 2 is actually just Arthur going through electric shock treatment. Joker 3 will be revealed to be Arthur at the end of his treatment, realizing everything he just experienced was a torture fantasy. YOU realize this too as you hear the REAL Harleen Quinzel (not lady gag gag) talking to Joker. As the camera pans out, you realize this is a reshoot of Arkham Origins and how Harleen met Joker, and becomes Harley.
I get the feeling we take movies way to seriously now days. The majority of them are meaningless entertainment and should be treated as such. Argyll was a fun, stupid film and a pleasant way to spend a lazy Saturday as were a few others on this list.
You don't have to agree or not: it bombed (comparing money outcomes and incomes), whatever its qualities. I don't think it was a bad movie generally speaking, but it was not a good Guy Richie movie: too "flat", without thrill or surprises (and Operation Fortune has same symptoms)
On Borderlands, why hire a horror director to do an action comedy? They should have used one of the John Wick directors. Argylle could have been easily a much better film. It should have had more comedy.
Joker 2 was sabotaged deliberately because the director didn’t want to do it...and Horizon should never have been a movie in the first place because its really an old style mini-series
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is unfairly listed as several markets such as Canada and the UK did not get a theatrical release, it went directly to streaming....
I was on a 15 hr flight to Asia. Plenty of time just sitting there so I tried Kevin Costner's Horizon. Even then, I couldn't get through half of it. Story was all over the place and couldn't follow all the subplots and characters. And I really wanted to to make the flight pass quicker.
Do you know the definition of a hit film ? It must earn 3x its production costs. The distribution costs, are usually where the accountants work their magic to push up "extra" costs, to nibble at the box office returns, and screw over the investors who are meant to share everything it makes above the 3x times production cost. Also, producers will sometimes try and sneak a Private Yacht into the production costs.
In the real world, when a company loses money, the first move is usually to cut employees' pay plans. Actors need to join the real world. We will get better acting, less assanine opinions, and less virtue signaling.
You should note box office covers what the theaters and movie company made. A $100 M boxoffice means, on average, the movie company only took in $50M. Also, the budget for a movie does not cover ads and promotions
yep. A movie needs to make 2.5 times it's budget to break even. That's worldwide as some countries like China keep a larger portion of the box office receipts
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare wasn't released to theatres in Canada or the UK. I wanted to see it on the big screen but no dice. I know a bunch of people around here who were really excited about seeing it only to be denied. You can't blame the movie for not performing if no one can go to the theatre to see it.
I liked Fly me to Mars the moon. Hadn’t even known it was in theaters. Poor marketing for sure. Watched it streaming. Up until now, I thought it was a big budget straight to stream movie. Pretty good flick.
Argyle started the movie full of excitement. I thought its a james bond wannabe movie. It has all the characteristics of a james bond film but after the opening act, it became a farce.
Seems like Hollywood thinks they can throw any junk at us and we'll pay for it. I like to stay at home and watch old, free productions. Plus, I'm tired of so-called "stars."
I’ve never even heard of a couple of these films, the marketing budgets must have been miniscule. I suspect that the studios knew that they had a turd on their hands and didn’t want to throw good money after bad.
All a bit tedious , throwing money at endless remakes , sequels , prequels . You aren’t going to get people back into cinemas until they stop getting AI to write the scripts !
There have been many films/movies that were considered better than the original. Titanic 1997 vs '53, The Mummy 1983vs '32, The Thing 1982 vs '51, Scarface 1983 vs '32. That's was just a very small example of some remakes can be better than the original.
Don't think I ever even Heard of Any of these movies! Do they even Advertise movies anymore on TV? Just from what I saw here None of these movies looked like Anything I would ever go to see.
I haven't even heard of a lot of those movies. I'm not Hollywood filming making guy or a comic book guy but, making the Joker into a musical???? I knew that would bomb. Kind of stupid, they made OZ, about how the wizard of Oz got to Oz but, it didn't have any music. One of the things loved about the Wizard of Oz was the music.
Seems to me Hollywood has run out of ideas. Marvel/superheroes drek, Gladiator 2 why? Etc etc don’t they make films for grown ups anymore? Studios don’t seem to want to take a chance on a script that they don’t think will make them a ton of money.
Saw part of one (Borderlands when it was officially unofficially 'pirated' on youtube, Never heard of three of them. Had mild interest in seeing two others, but didn't.
Some of these movies were not that bad. I think there has been a culture change brought about by streaming in which people don't go to cinemas anymore. Something similar happened when television rolled out in the early 1950s. Hollywood to survive needs to trim the fat and cut costs. Also there needs to be a new business model for releasing video entertainment. In the 1950s the two solutions were to show movies that were physically impossible to display properly on a TV screen (e.g. Panavision) or deal with subject matter too daring to be shown on TVs at the time (the 1960s new cinema).
I never even heard of "Here" or many of the others. Henry Cavil and Alan Ritchson were the only reason I watched "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare". They were the best thing about the movie. The rest was trash.
Back in the day, they’d make a movie that was so good, we’d see it multiple times. There hasn’t been anything like that at the cinema in years! I can’t see even bothering buying a ticket and driving to the theater for any of these current woke DEI flicks!! Hollywood went nuts over the Trump phenomenon! There’s always old movies and indies. That’s what the theater owners need to start showing.
A lot of the issue with these poor showings had nothing to do with the movies themselves. Combine a horrible economic condition, where people cannot afford to pay rent, house payments, buy groceries, etc..., with a huge, growing disdain for Hollywood in general because of their woke ideology, which disgusts the sane public, and you have a recipe for low box office draw.
Wait a few months and there will be a movie with a $250 million budget that nobody watched: Snow White.
Nope. It's latest predicted release title will be "Snow Latina and the Seven CGI Generated AI Turds." But you've got the part right that even when being streamed for free, folks will stay away from it in droves.

It's like the democrats constantly raising your taxes no matter what you say.
It's reported to be $350m now, possibly even $400m
I will watch it again and again!It looks beautifully!

And then there are the countless millions who are sick and tired of the whiners and their offensive childish opinions who vote for degenerate felons.
poor Henry Cavill. he deserves and is capable of so much more. Hollywood doesn't know what to do with its leading men.
I did like the movie actually. It wasn't great, but still fun. Though I hate Til Schweiger. That man has no place in acting

Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare was a perfectly fine film.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare was shown for a very short time in a limited number of theaters, in the U.S. and UK only.
What happened to the days of putting stuff before an audience to gauge their response before spending more money?
That idea was replaced by calling the audience "racist" when they don't like your film.

Tax write offs
Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare was a great movie, tons of fun. Not realistic.
On Borderlands, why hire a horror director to do an action comedy? They should have used one of the John Wick directors. Argylle could have been easily a much better film. It should have had more comedy.
Eli Roth was the one who got it made. He wrote the story and screenplay, then pitched it to the producers.
Joker 2 was sabotaged deliberately because the director didn’t want to do it...and Horizon should never have been a movie in the first place because its really an old style mini-series
Same as the 4th Matrix film. Wachowski deliberately made it so bad so it would bomb.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is unfairly listed as several markets such as Canada and the UK did not get a theatrical release, it went directly to streaming....
The script for Borderlands was awful, but the script for Megalopolis was even worse.
Too many people on the gravy train and too much money. Why don't they ask the customer what they want. Nobody wanted anything of these movies.
Coppola's had box office bombs before like "One From The Heart" - $1 million off a $23 million budget.

I get so tired of seeing the same old faces year after year. Like Scarlett and Jennifer Lopez and many others.
By definition, an actor is not part of the real world.
Nothing to do with the actors. You're just another right wing mug, who never knows who's really to blame because of your ignorance.

Would have succeeded in the 90's I bet.

Gotta ask yourself how many of these flops could have been successful if woke Hollywood didn't tic off half their potential audience. 🤷♂️

Some of these movies were not that bad. I think there has been a culture change brought about by streaming in which people don't go to cinemas anymore. Something similar happened when television rolled out in the early 1950s. Hollywood to survive needs to trim the fat and cut costs. Also there needs to be a new business model for releasing video entertainment. In the 1950s the two solutions were to show movies that were physically impossible to display properly on a TV screen (e.g. Panavision) or deal with subject matter too daring to be shown on TVs at the time (the 1960s new cinema).
I never even heard of "Here" or many of the others. Henry Cavil and Alan Ritchson were the only reason I watched "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare". They were the best thing about the movie. The rest was trash.
They could flop a hundred movies it wouldn't put a dent in there bank balance.
Their.
4:30- I'm sure Tom Hanks will blame republicans for his movie sucking.
TCM is the only place to watch Films anymore! .... And you learn stuff!
Back in the day, they’d make a movie that was so good, we’d see it multiple times. There hasn’t been anything like that at the cinema in years! I can’t see even bothering buying a ticket and driving to the theater for any of these current woke DEI flicks!! Hollywood went nuts over the Trump phenomenon! There’s always old movies and indies. That’s what the theater owners need to start showing.
A lot of the issue with these poor showings had nothing to do with the movies themselves. Combine a horrible economic condition, where people cannot afford to pay rent, house payments, buy groceries, etc..., with a huge, growing disdain for Hollywood in general because of their woke ideology, which disgusts the sane public, and you have a recipe for low box office draw.
