Beauty and the Beast gonna wreck the box office, so whats it matter?
I bet she's happy to star in a movie where she's actually challenged as actor instead of standing infront of a green screen while some underpaid CGI guy does all the work.

I thought she would've blown up more, with Bling Ring or whatever it was.

I don't think she's a good actress. Or that much of a big name.

He's been very adventurous, which I appreciate in an actor that has no financial need for big paydays with the kind of money he got from Harry Potter. I don't think he's quite the same "oh shit, he/she really was super talented all along" level as Robert Pattinson or Kristen Stewart have been, but he's got the desire to do stuff his way.

Still not indicative of how many have seen the movie or how much money it's made.
That's still bad.

I liked horns and I want to see swiss army man

Yeah isn't the latter supposed to be genuinely good, like maybe the best thing he's done non Potter? I mean like overall, not necessarily performance. I'm aware of the premise.

I saw Swiss Army Man this weekend and it was an awesome movie. It's crucial to see.
Yeah, less than $30 a screen is nothing to worry about.
She isn't a draw. Neither is Daniel. Idk what happened to the dude that played Ron. If they replaced Emma three movies in the Harry Potter films still would have been huge hits.

Since when was Woman in Black a bad movie?

Rupert has mostly stayed away from acting, though he's had a couple of roles here and there.

A movie playing in the UK called "The Colony" with a Brit playing a German probably doesn't tickle a moviegoer's fancy.

With a simultaneous streaming release? So you'd write the headline that this streaming only movie made 0$ if it didn't open in theaters at all?

It made $61 and British movie tickets can cost up to $20...so does that mean 3-5 people saw this movie?
EDIT: Opened in 3 theaters...so 1-2 people per theater for the entire opening? Must have been nice and quiet.

No, it's in the article.
Huh?
She's been really good in recent stuff. Clouds of Sils Maria was a particularly big revelation.
I got this reference.

$61 only...damn. That is pretty damn terrible no matter how one looks at it.

She can buy one video game!
But none of that fancy collectors edition stuff
Looks like she's going to have to borrow the Time Turner again...
Anyway, this is a VOD movie. I don't expect those to make much in the theater. Watson is talented, and she's already made bank from the Potter films (she has a $70 million net worth) At this point, I imagine she's still making movies because she loves to make movies. It's certainly not for financial stability.

She should have been in a movie about farting corpses. That's where the money is.

They got better as they went, which made sense as they got older and more experienced.
Acting? He's been big in the theatre scene. Different animals sure, but he's been routinely on stage/screen since HP.
But that's not the headline. PFV is pennies. A couple dozen bucks per projector is abysmal.
Edit: whoops SAM made over two grand a screen a day over the weekend. Limited release. Still an indie film, but on the three HP kids he's the top draw.

Brühl is an outstanding actor with many successful and good movies on his belt; his career will be fine.

This will prompt Watson to sign 2 more sequels of Beauty and the Beast hahaha.
BTW she is terrible in This Is the End.

So, I guess nobody in here has watched it? XD I have and...well, it's not really something you'd like to watch with family or friends in the cinema, munching popcorn. It's very slow, dark, unnerving and quite disturbing at times. Seeing her as Belle in the live action adaptation of the Beauty and Beast next year will be like a difference of night and day.

Did her family even see it?
That was just a cameo though. More importantly, a "did it for the lulz" cameo too.
