Posted by: Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin on Dec 17, 20:16 in response to Moviesnob's post it was projected to do a lot more than 2%. sony only has...

I would post a link, but the only story I can find in print isn't the same as what was broadcast - doesn't talk about the financials at all.

V: “Sony Pictures has no further release plans for the film" [NTRVW]. could sell the rights to a rival distributor . Antibody Dec 17, 17:02

Universal wins again! {nm} charlie Dec 17, 17:04

so they could get hacked too? who would want it now? Drafthouse, here is your chance :) {nm} Oleg Max Dec 17, 17:05

i wish. at least I got to see it this weekend {nm} Moviesnob Dec 17, 17:10

here is the plan: take company offline, hire extra security for your theaters, buy and release the movie, count profits, done! {nm} Oleg Max Dec 17, 17:10

Oh you did? How was it? I know it's a dumb comedy but still. {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:11

its not dumb, its got butt jokes but its not dumb. I liked it but like This is the End more. Randall Park is great in it. {nm} Moviesnob Dec 17, 17:15

they gave out these plastic cups for the film that i left behind. kinda wish I kept it now. {nm} Moviesnob Dec 17, 17:18

I loved This is the End. {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:20

CTATU or EMWAT? {nm} RazorHawk Dec 17, 17:25

Ha hard decision. CTATU part was great, but EMWAT was hillarious {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:26

Danny McBride was great {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:27

this Moviesnob Dec 17, 17:29

I thought all the cameo {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:32

I thought all the cameo's were great. Even MCERA's {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:32

I LOVED This is the End! {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 17:57

Maybe McAfee wants to get into the distribution biz. {nm} JohnErleVan Dec 17, 17:11

the rival studios that leaned on the theaters and sony? {nm} Moviesnob Dec 17, 17:09

+1 {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:14

Oh it's the same day... Just cause they SAY they don't have any further release plans now doesn't mean they won't in a week. {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:13

Sony is a Japanese company. They're done and moving on. Write it off as a loss. Fire those responsible. {nm} Antibody Dec 17, 17:15

True.. And this was one of few times Sony got involved in Sony Pictures doings {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 17:22

Yuppers. It was projected to represent only 2% of Holiday BO, anyway. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 17:42

it was projected to do a lot more than 2%. sony only has annie now. This was likely $100m. their last movie did 126 {nm} Moviesnob Dec 17, 19:46

Not for just SONY - total holiday box office. 2% per NPR this evening... Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 20:16

They are including all releases from TG weekend on - since 2014 summer was down 20% from... Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 20:51

the worry is not about what box is interview, the worry is people staying away from theaters because interview is playing {nm} Moviesnob Dec 17, 21:38

Yeah, I had that conversation with a friend tonight. {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 23:58

the whole project caused the entire film studio to melt down in public. they're killing it with fire and burying it forever {nm} charlie Dec 17, 17:16

Yes, but will they allow it the honorable death of Hara Kiri or just execute it? {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 17:52

poor box office = Hari Kiri ... hacked emails = honorable death ... public shame upon company = execution {nm} RazorHawk Dec 17, 18:00

+1 {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Dec 17, 18:11

+1 {nm} Dorfman Dec 17, 18:23

Is too late to use CGI and change N Korea to Cuba? Sounds like they'd be cool with that. {nm} JohnErleVan Dec 17, 19:06

You mean "Red Dawn" The Interview? {nm} Todrick Dec 18, 11:30

what does this mean for the price of the movie? pwgraff Dec 21, 13:20
