Wow and they had the "Biggest" pop stars apparently.

Britney only performed a song for The Smurfs, she didn't have a character to play like Gaga did.

The first one is a great trashy action movie
Definitely worth a watch for people who like the genre
I'll watch the second one when it's on DVD

the weekend's only other new wide player is exploitation action film Machete Kills, from writer-director Robert Rodriguez. Machete Kills debuted to a dismal $1.4 million on Friday and may not hit $4 million in its debut.

This thread is a mess.
I remember folks (Navy) were even trying it with Bey's part in Epic and it opened to 100 mill WW and ended up turning a decent profit. Any pop star affiliated with a movie will be dragged on this forum if there is even a hint of a possibility of a flop -- no matter how small of a part.
This release just seemed to be more about mitigating losses than turning a profit after all the push backs post production. Even only recouping half the budget, they're shrinking the loss which ultimately helps their bottom line at the end of the day. I haven't seen much promo at all for the film so it doesn't seem they're spending that much to push it -- surprised they didn't just end up sending it straight to DVD. Not sure what they were thinking even green lighting it to begin with considering the performance of the first. Nothing about its commercial performance even hinted at the possibility of becoming a successful franchise.

When did the smurfs become britney's movie? when katy was the one who was in it. All Britney did was a song for her children.

How does she have 500k on lock? when very early predictions have her at 400k

Battleship grossed $300 million over a $209 million budget. That is a major flop. Smurfs 2 grossed $330 million over a $105 million budget, it's not the same.
