That was just a cameo though. More importantly, a "did it for the lulz" cameo too.

She was so wooden she couldn't do it for the lulz.

I always thought that Emma's star power was vastly overstated. People conflate her notoriety as a feminist with her fame from acting and just assume that those two make her a bankable star. In reality people who may like her as a feminist don't have to like her as an acting, more likely, they are completely indifferent to her acting wise.

Having seen this movie I can say it's not undeserved. It's a pretty weird movie about a pretty weird place, and no amount of star power can make a movie about some sort of weird ass, Amish, woman hating cult, led by a paedophile do superhero box office smash numbers.

She's a little boy in a B-Cup who has profited from JK Rowling's ability to write heart-warming tween books. I'm not surprised by this news.

Acting? He's been big in the theatre scene. Different animals sure, but he's been routinely on stage/screen since HP.

I don't follow theater at all, but good for him to find a different avenue for acting.

This is one of the worst posts I've ever seen on Neogaf.

They didn't even recoup the cost for lunch.

I didn't think Radcliffe would be the one with the bigger career after HP.

He deserves it.

Man, if you weren't a junior this be a tag-worth post because it's filled with all sorts of WAT.

 

[blame space]

she was really good in the perks of being a wallflower.

urthermore, the film opened in only three theaters in the U.K., with a simultaneous home-streaming release. And given how expensive it is for Brits to go to the movies (nearly $20 a ticket in some London theaters), it’s probable that many Emma Watson fans opted to watch Colonia on their laptops instead.

That's still a really pathetic total, even from three cinemas. And London is the one place you'd think would eat this sort of shit up.

 

[Krejlooc]

where it took in only 47 pounds — or about $60.75 in U.S. dollars

lol brexit

 

[SirRattleBalls]

I would blame the films marketing team, i did not see a single ad or marketing piece for this film at all. First time im hearing about it is here on gaf

 

[Brashnir]

lol brexit

They would have to have first entered the theater in order to Brexit it.

But tell us how you really feel

 

[Yager]

rescues her boyfriend (Daniel Brühll) from a Nazi-influenced Chilean cult

I need to see this.

 

[Monty Mole]

So less than 5 people went to see this movie?

No, fewer.

 

[Ratrat]

Isnt this in German? English speakers seem to have an aversion to foreign languages.

 

[mcz117chief]

wait a minute, so the movie made $61 in theatres? Like in 1,2,3,4,...59,60,61 individual dollars? So it sold like 4 tickets? Is that even possible?

 

[nacimento]

Really good movie, saw it in the cinema here in Germany.

 

[takriel]

How can this be? So just a bunch of people went to see this in cinemas?

 

[Mr_Moogle]

that guy's an interesting actor. not quite likable but compelling onscreen

I've liked him ever since I heard him calling people "arscholes" in Rush. There was something hilariously awesome about his German accent in that film.

 

[Acidote]

If she gets some of that box office she'll have the oportunity to evade like 10c in taxes! Panama here we go!

 

[MrToughPants]

How can this be? So just a bunch of people went to see this in cinemas?

3 people went to see this. The $60 it made doesn't even cover the staff's wages, or the discs it was printed on.

 

[Madrugador]

I didn't like it and I had high expectations because of how shocking all the events surrounding Colonia Dignidad are.

All the chileans talking and giving speeches in english in the middle of Santiago makes no sense and took me out of the movie. Those people were supporting socialism and were directly fighting the influence from the US. It looked so dumb.

That's just one example. In general It felt like a really fake story inside a real one.

 

[Joni]

Huh?

First American Actress to win the Cesar. Stuff like The Runaways and Adventureland also showed she was better than what Twilight showed.

 

[Krejlooc]

They would have to have first entered the theater in order to Brexit it.

I'm laughing more at how 47 GBP is only 60 USD.

 

[MarkMclovin]

This will prompt Watson to sign 2 more sequels of Beauty and the Beast hahaha.

BTW she is terrible in This Is the End.

Oh I suppose Seth gives an Oscar performance?

I mean, the movie is just one big piss about. What did you expect her to do?

 

[SomedayTheFire]

That's still a really pathetic total, even from three cinemas. And London is the one place you'd think would eat this sort of shit up.

why would you go to the cinema and spend more money when you could stay at home and watch it? It's not really pathetic.
