So Cena's movie was #10 this week...
http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/boxoffice/weekend/
According to Yahoo Movies. This is better than the reports from the newsboard were predicting, and kind of surprising, all things considered. So yeah. ![]() --John Rogers |

It's taken $12 mil now right?
It cost $15 So it's going to break even after DVD sales, not a total dissapointment, but not a total failure either Plus there's the wroldwide market to pimp |

Not as bad as the propaganda machine that is wrestling news boards made it out to be. Breaking even is an accomplishment from where I am sitting.

This is me expressing glee that The Departed will make over $100 million before it's done in the Top 10.

Even considering the reduced views, it should make back that other 2.5 in the month. Compared to what I thought it would do, this is phenomenal. It's not great, but like you said, not a total failure. So...Fifteen Bucks to make |

15 Million. What don't you understand, the movie cost 15 million, that was to hire Cena. The crew and everyone else didn't get paid.

Yeah I heard Production was $23 mil to make, and $10 mil for advertising.
Also about the Kane movie it probably well ended up grossing the same... I think. That didn't cost nearly as much money as the Cena movie though so you would see Kane's movie did alright. |

I have to laugh, too. I checked IMDB to see what it cost (Didn't see it), but saw some people on the forum complaining about the beginning of the movie. Apparently, Marines are so sensitive that if someone is wearing the wrong cap and salutes in the wrong order, it kills the whole "let's fellate the target practice guys" vibe.

We all had a good laugh. |

The question is how much it takes to break even (Sicne all the numbers seem to be hearsay) and how much the Marine makes before it leaves theaters.
In looking up the past few Raw ratings, I noticed Dave Scherer from Insider was also bashing the Marine, talking about how it wasn't playing to large crowds on its first weekend. I'm sorry, it's obvious he didn't like it, and even I think it could have been better, but when a movie is #6, any implication that the movie isn't playing to sizable crowds is just petty and stupid. I'm not sure why everyone's going so far out of their way to make this movie a failure. Shouldn't Vince be able to do that on his own? ![]() It's not doing phenomenal, but the way people are panning it, you'd think it drew fifteen bucks at the box office... |

Did anyone ever notice that in that movie Superman solves all his problems by lifting stuff? and thats sometimes he stuggles to lift a car, but doesn't struggle nearly as much when lifting an entire f'n continent.
