It's amazing how little press I've seen for a blockbuster film due to come out in a couple of days. Cruise may be a reliable box-office draw, but it's all seemed quiet on the western front.

Honestly, I'm getting Tom Cruise fatigue, reviews need to wow me like Wonder Woman for me to see this.

The real shame with Universal's attempts at relaunching its monsters is that they'd be a lot more successful making them as $30 million straight horror films around Halloween instead of trying to make them $100 million summer action films. It really shouldn't be that hard to figure out.

Yeah, I was starting to get concerned about this movie and the universe they're trying to create. I know they tried to kickstart it with Dracula Untold, and we know how that turned out. The problem with Mummy for me is I feel like they're giving EVERYTHING away to establish the Dark Universe saga...I mean everything from Jekyll's involvement to Cruise getting "monsterfied" to fight the Mummy. I don't really care for the Dark Universe but if Universal was so confident about it before, I wonder how it'll go if this movie flops/underperforms.

Ehhh, Cruise is still huge internationally. Most his movies make more than double internationally what they do domestically. For example-
Jack Reacher 2- 49 mil US, 161 mil worldwide
MI 5- 195 US, 682 WW
Edge of Tomorrow- 99 US, 369 WW
Oblivion- 89 US, 286 WW
Jack Reacher- 80 US, 218 WW
MI 4- 209 US, 694 WW
And The Mummy only cost 125 mil so it's not like they need to make a huge killing to break even like with a 200+ mil movie.

It set a record in south Korea so this is probably one of those plays where domestic is not as important than international. Look at what happened with triple x.

It'll still do like 400m total WW even with poor domestic numbers |

It'll still do like 400m total WW even with poor domestic numbers I was going to say, if it gets to around 100 mil domestically (which is what you'd expect from a 38 mil opening) it'll do 300-400 worldwide which would be about 3 or 4 times its budget. That would be a success without question. |

Supposedly it's bad too. Once reviews hit, it could go end up with lower.

Ouch, it's currently at only 23% on RT. Lowering my predictions to $30 million OW/$75-80 million domestic final.

Cruise's second attempt at starting a franchise hasn't exactly gone smoothly. Also the fact that Universal was so gung-ho about doing the "dark universe" is hilarious.
