Jem and the
Holograms: Failed
From
Huffington Post, ((None of the weekend's flops will garner as
much attention as "Jem and the Holograms," though, which
opened to $1.3 million to become one of the worst debuts of all time
for a major studio movie opening in over 2,000 locations. Based on
the 1980s animated series, the film opened on 2,413 screens,
averaging $545 per screen, to take 15th place. ))
Well, this movie
just shat all over the cartoon franchise. This movie was also
crowd-funded too, but it seems not even the fans of the cartoon
series even bothered to watch the movie. Part of me really takes
comfort that no one supported this movies because it seems they took
out all the magic and tech stuff and just made a shitty teen/pop
movie despite the fact Jem is more of superhero/hero type of person.
Why take away
all that and make a band movie?
Now here's the
thing, the
movie only took 5 million to make so they might make it back, but
I doubt it at this point. With such a small budget, they still
couldn't break even. And, I think the first trailer really hurt the
movie. Plus, it
only has 20% on RT.
I guess we'll
get another reboot in another 10 years.
And, they didn't
even bother to bring the theme song back. Really?
