not really a surprise since its common knowledge with comic book films that actors/actresses sign multi year contracts.. Margot Robbie is hot and is a pretty good actress so she'll do Harley justice

So is it time to worry? Smith & Robbie's new movie did a dissapointing 18mil on opening weakend.

Like I told you before, stars don't run movies anymore. At least not like they did. Plus, the Joker is in this. Jared Leto is an international star, along with Will Smith. For a small movie, Focus will make back it's money. Easily.

It's not a small movie

$50.1 million dollar budget
Plus marketing.

Yeah, and it already made 32 M WW. Small compared to a big budget, yeah.

That's like calling an elephant a small animal.

I can't find a WW total... Where else has it opened?

Boxofficemojo, of course. It opened at 20M and it's totals WW is 32. Will Smith is still a big draw overseas. If Focus can get Seven Pounds numbers that will be good enough.

😆 😆

not at you Golgo.

Even still that's gross, so you have to subtract theatre pay and many countries take some aswell.

They would be lucky to break even right now.

idk generally you have a 60% drop between weeks and focus hasn't gotten stellar press.
////for the record

I'm not saying SS will bomb, but I think 2 stars aren't as big as a lot of people think they are.

Foreign markets will get a boost, even if the studios don't get all that money. I've been saying for a while that star power doesn't equal success. Hasn't been for a while.

It's waaay to early to say if Suicide Squad will be a success or not. All depends on how it turns out in general and the marketing.

it certainly doesn't help if the 2 main stars are in a flop together.

That said the Margot Robbie hype was unwarranted. She played a topless chick 90% of Wolf of Wallstreet and a sex bunny the other 10%.

The movie hasn't flopped, though. At least not yet. And Margot Robbie is the right choice, no matter what.

And even if it did flop (Which it won't), doesn't mean it will hurt the Suicide Squad.

The Judge flopped. Doesn't mean it will effect Iron Man.
