Wicked stuff and 3d. Nice!

Mavrick · 07-15-2013, 07:08 PM

So much 3D steelbook goodness! I can't take it!

adyady · 07-15-2013, 07:11 PM

Where does it say it's 3D?

THS · 07-15-2013, 07:22 PM

Hope a U.S. retailer gets this as an exclusive. Would be freakin' awesome.

Ray_Blue_Ray · 07-15-2013, 07:30 PM

YES they will but it will say Grown Ups 2 on it.

I certainly can't see it written anywhere. Hopefully it is though.

blucraig · 07-15-2013, 07:51 PM

hell yes, bring it on

Sinthetic · 07-15-2013, 07:57 PM

This is going to have some awesome design potential.

Hopefully there will be a tough decision to be made between releases that are Lenticular or Embossed.

Lol directed by Benicio Del Torro? Fail

yeslek · 07-16-2013, 04:05 PM

I think the fact that as both recent steels for Gatsby and Hobbit will be having 3D included, it was just assumed this would follow suit

That and the fact Amazon are running a 3DTV promo along with this. Seems strange that they would do that with a 2D release. So I thought the title would be updated to say 3D when it goes live. If not then I am dissapoint

yeslek · 07-16-2013, 06:06 PM

same here

Plus I'm hoping Amazon show Chavvi how its done and release steels with 3D where applicable

ultlife2013 · 07-22-2013, 12:25 AM

What's worst the 3d talk or the people whining about the 3d talk? Maybe this post pointing out all the whining.

Riddler The Slag · 07-22-2013, 09:01 PM

This one for sure!!!

Day 1!!

Bill Clay · 07-22-2013, 09:45 PM

Well given that the only things that make any money now are sequels, they might as well go ahead and make a sequel!

Made over $100 million internationally this weekend, so maybe there is hope.

Actually it made 34.8 mill internationally over the weekend, bringing its total to 110 million. I think it should make over 200 mill internationally by the end of its run. Domestically should make 100 mill. Not terrible but will rely on home market sales to make back the rest of its money I'd think. Warner would have spent a bomb on marketing this over the 6 months leading up to release plus the 3 d conversion. I think they may have been better off leaving it at its original release date where it didn't have so much competition.

I googled this article. Basically it boils down to a movie needs to make twice its production budget in worldwide grosses to be a greenlight for sequels, and overseas grosses are not as valuable as domestic, because studios take in less money due to govt policies, currency costs, etc.

Unless the merchandising and home video sales are out of this world, studios execs will not likely greenlight a sequel, but movie execs are not the most rational people.
