Yeah but what does that have to do with the toys?
>>11897878>John CenaGuaranteed flop.This is just Mattel copying Hasbro's "make a movie out of any property" strategy withut realizing that Brooklyn Decker's massive tits were the reason why Battleship did so well.
Honestly a movie premised around "Hot Wheels vs. Matchbox" would be fucking lit and I would watch that.
>>11897878Well you see it has cars
>>11897880Battleship did well?
>>11897878TIL people still care about Matchbox
>>11897878Uh they mentioned they played with them as kids was that not enough for you?
>>11897878>you can't see me, but I am here to kill another franchise
>>11898112if im gonna buy a cheap car toy to play around with its always a matchbox and not a fuckass hotwheel
>>11898175Die cast is die cast
>>11898112Their cars have better details than hotwheels. Modern hotwheels car are just ugly fantasy cars for pre-schooler.
Who gives a shit
>>11898062NTA, but no it didn't. It had a 220 million dollar production budget (probably a little over 300 million with marketing) and made 300 million at the box office. Didn't lose a crazy amount of money, but it definitely wasn't a success.
>Spy and former soldier Sean Walker reunites with childhood friends only to be drugged and kidnapped by a group looking for a nuclear warhead. The CIA believes Walker and his friends stole the nuclear weapon, so the group decides to re-steal the bomb and clear their names.This is just some watered down version of F&F. It's also just going to be on Apple TV, so who's even watching that?How Wheels is a bigger name than Matchbox, and probably would have a bigger focus on the brand. Good job Mattel
>>11897878>STILL making dogsh8it movies based on Toylines that has NOTHING to do with the toylines or any sort of story they have>The same dogshit actors
>>11898355>It's also just going to be on Apple TVI hate streaming services so god damn much. There used to be such a clear dilineation between theatrical movies, straight to video/DVD, and TV movies that it helped make clear the quality you were getting, but now streaming services get big brand names and celebrities and throw out these things with huge budgets, but it's a total crapshoot if you're getting a genuinely great movie or straight to video-tier shit.
>>11898502A theatrical movie with a star studded cast and huge budget was zero indicator of quality anon. Hell, just look at 2019's cats.
>>11898502>>11898525>god DAMN things were easier back then, why do they gotta fucking suck and taken from the future that I was promised all those years ago when generations past had it way easier? it's simple, your kind got lazy and demanded inflated wages for lower quality
>>11898527>zoomie on zoomie crime
>>11897878Nothing. The premise has literally nothing to do with the toys or what they're all about. You can take the branding out and it would probably be better for it. Pic related may not be everyone's thing, but it does a far better job of working its subject matter into the story.
>>11898527>It's my fault multi-billion dollar corporations run by people who have been in charge almost as long as I've been alive decided that I should own nothing and be happy, and now they've decided that the things I don't own should be shit so I can't even be happy.
>>11898652Yes that is the open tolerant society you want where niggers and fags can do whatever they want
>>11898653Is it too late to get a refund?
>>11898652>>11898653>>11898654
>>11898502>>11898525BullshitThe Fall Guy and Bullet Train all had big stars and a huge budget. Cats was always going to bomb because it was a musical so it's not the one to use as an example.
>>11899289>Cats was always going to bomb because it was a musicalTell that to Wicked. Cats failed in large part because the mix of the make-up and CG they used for the actors looked fucked up and bad.
FUNKO POP! MOVIE WHEN????????
>>11899293Musicals in general "bomb." Wicked II, not really a proper sequel, didn't do as well as the first one by several hundred thousand. West Side Story, even directed by Spielberg, didn't even make it's production budget back. WIkipedia is doing bullshit like calling 'animated' cartoons like The Lion King, musicals, and also bio-pictures of musicians like Bohemian Rhapsody and this year's Michael Jackson movie, and classifying those as 'musicals' to puff up their list of box office, but if you just look at actual filmed musicals (e.g. Chicago, Les Miz, or even shit like Mama Mia, and none of that is anything anyone is going to claim as box office success):https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_musical_filmsALSO, to keep it relevant to this board, the WICKED toys peg warmed HARD.
>>11897880>cenaI like him, though like Tony soprano, it seems like he came in at the end. Big movies starring former wrasslers are kind of going away since people realized the rock was not in fact Arnold’s successor, and Batista troon’d out and only does Denis movies now.>brooklyn deckerPretty face but has that rectangular torso/no ass combo like Kate upton.
>>11899289>>11899293>>11900880kpop demon hunters is a musical did well, its because its new and fresh and not the same boomer unc slop you retards can only name. you do know younger generations are always the driving force of pop culture and you out of touch retards keep forgetting this?
I just saw an aisle display at Walmart with the toys (tracks and cars) for the movie. So dumb.
