    It looks more like a streaming movie than a cinema experience, probably released too early and might've faired better in summer, female lead definitely bogged, male lead semi-bogged, inflated budget, loosely based off of a TV show barely anyone remembers, etc etc.

      Nah, its because audiences have been conditioned not to go see films unless they are based on properties they are already aware of. (Apparently this is based on an '80s show but who actually remembers it?) Oppenheimer only did well because of the Barbenheimer meme. Its vidya shit from here on out in theaters.

      Gosling plays a stuntman who does stunts for an actor. On the set of one of their movies, something goes wrong and Gosling's character breaks his back. He stops doing stunts for over a year, but then gets a call from a producer telling him that the cameralady who he had a fling with is now directing a movie starring the guy he did stunts for and wants him to come back. He shows up and it turns out that the actor is missing and so he goes to investigate what happened.

      Honestly, while I liked the movie, the plot was the worst aspect and is filled with holes if you really think about any of it.

        The plot is actually good, but the execution was bad. The scenes needed to breathe. There was a kind of wry detachment which could be funny, but ultimately undercut the stakes. It was never clear what peril was actually real because the base reality was so goofy.

              Why do you insist on blaming the audience? You're part of that audience and obviously you want to see good action films, you don't think there's anyone else that wants the same thing? Maybe the problem is that actors used to live real lives, be in the military etc. before their acting careers. Now we have a generation of soft smartphone homosexuals coming out of commie universities and that's who we have to choose from. You going to make an action movie with Chalamet?

      if you want to make an original movie, don't "base" it on an existing property. If I see a movie called Fall Guy, I'm gonna assume its about a stunt man bounty hunter. you are driving away the people who want something original because they think it won't be, and you are driving away the fans of the original property because it has nothing in common with it but the name

        How much does fall guy have to earn to be profitable?

          The standard rule of thumb for breaking even is 2.5 times the budget, so for The Fall Guy that's 2.5*$130M so $325M worldwide gross to break even. It won't get anywhere close to that.

            I remember that Steven Spielberg praised this film and after that I investigated and discovered that this film was produced by Universal.Kek

            why do they keep doing this? it's absurd to think you can keep being profitable with such hihg production budgets

        The monkey movie premieres this weekend and weeks later Mad Max Furiosa. The fall guy will not get 200 million at the box office and will be a failure similar to Arguille.

        Goss and Emily c**t are box office poison

    Also Blunt has no sex appeal in 2021+3

      Now that would have been more interesting.

      A former child star actor working as a valet undergoes cosmetic surgery to remove is old looks in order to win back the love of his a lister former gf currently working on a film.The twist is that you never seen the girl clearly until the third act until its revealed she underwent cosmetic surgery to win back his love. Aaron Taylor Johnson can be the jealous costar or something. Could be played as a joke as old people's version of star crossed lovers or something

    People don't want to go to a theater for non-franchise movies. Studios need to learn this soon, and release movies (at least simultaneously with theaters) on streaming services.

    Probably because they put the popular actors in front of the text to the extent no one can see from the trailer what the second word is to make it "dynamic", rather than just putting the fricking title in the top half like any competent graphic designer would have.

      Aging stunt guy breaks his back and retreats from the industry. He's lured back when he's told by a producer that his ex girlfriend who was a camerawoman (and is now a director) asked for him specifically then finds out the guy he doubles for has gone missing and is tasked with finding him to save the movie and get his girlfriend back.

    The concept is dumb. Seriously, do you think this idea would have anything going for it if it didn't star two well-known actors? I know the knee jerk reaction is "people are dumb cuz marvel and franchises" but some movies are just made that aren't good ideas.

    I dunno I saw one of the early trailers and it seemed ok, I think maybe people are just reluctant to trust holywood in general now so only huge titles can have any success at all

    How much do you think this cost to make compared to spy x family code white which has made roughly the same amount of money

    I was all up for some Gosling kino but the trailer I saw made it look shit. It was all weak banter between Gosling and Blunt. Semi-ironic awkward "finger gun" cringe joke is not a good way to sell a movie.
