The Flopping Machine
>$50 Million Budget
> Opening weekend of $ 5.8 Milly
>Second weekend 1.8 Milly
>A huge 69.2% drop
.Some number content , 2nd weekend drops for an average movie is around 50%. Less than 35% amazing, 35-45% good, 55-65% bad, more than 65% is shit.

As a film follower this might be actually worse than the opening weekend flop number, you can cope with a bad opening weekend and make excuses of marketing or outside circumstance.. But a 70% second week drop is saying the people who did watch it told their friends to avoid it and it sucked. This at times happen to big budget huge opening slop movies but for this to happen to an "Oscar hope" with an already small opening week is an absolute disaster and now way the Oscars are going to touch this bust

That would've been a good number on a small art film, why the fuck is the budget 50 million

Because they had to spend a shit ton to make Dwayne 'The Fossil' Johnson look like he wasn't an old man

It's A24 Oscar bait

They just thought the Rock could bring in the UFC dudebros because it's MMA so they gave it a more prominent release date like retards.
But really, this movie is more about Hollywood pretending that The Rock can act.

The film is literally is a monument to Dwayne’s body dysmorphia. He was probably 50 lbs heavier than prime Kerr

It's October. Nobody is even pretending to give a fuck about Charlie Kuck anymore.

It's not just the budget, but horrible word of mouth. Compare this to Iron Claw which also might have had a disappointing opening weekend ($4.9M) but because it was talked so well from audience it made the same money with $4.6M only a 4% drop and $4.5M a 2% drop the next two weeks giving them $30 Million in three weeks on a $16 Million budget.

Smasher went from 5.8 to 1.8 M, by weekend 3 it will be under a milly. Iron Claw was able to get to $30M overall after the third weekend because of consistent positive word of mouth, SM isn't hitting $15 Million because of a huge drop off and that nobody cares

Hasn't he lost so much mass he's never going back to wrestling? Would be fucking amazing if he sold his shares in TKO and they could finally fire all his shitty cousins.

Should’ve just stayed to make the Cena storyline at least kinda make sense. Selfish bastard.

Rock wanted this to be his Sly/Rocky moment, but boxing is at least was a respected combat sport at the time. This might come as a surprise but UFC is viewed as a lower form of life than even wrestling, that how low MMA is with normies. No one wants to see a culture of Trump loving human cock fighters, so nobody went to watch or cared about what's his name. The UFC stink didn't help the movie

MMA is popular with normal people. No one cares about movies. People only go to "tentpole" films or the occasional horror movie.
