My thoughts on [LONER]'s production stop ShawnMR Aug 13, 11:32

Disney is willing to make the the movie $200M, but GVERB would only reduce from $250M to $230M. The only way to make it for $150M Antibody Aug 13, 12:02

I never thought this movie was a good idea. And I really like Verbinski's previous 2 Westerns (Rango and The Mexican). {nm} tawdryhepburn Aug 13, 13:57

there's no way it can be retooled to less than 175 with the same talent deals unless depp is dropped to a very minor role {nm} notfabio Aug 13, 12:02

At which point Jdepp would likely drop out since they have been using him to promote the film at trade eventssince 2008 {nm} notfabio Aug 13, 12:08

Depp is pay or play so the money is already spent on him- I bet Bruckheimer has a similar deal. {nm} MovieMavericks Aug 13, 12:36

Why are people caught on on CBALN as the comparison. It wasn't a western, it was a sci-fi in a western period. PVL Admin Aug 13, 12:03

Because it's also a hugely budgeted film targeted at young summer audiences. If kids wouldn't pay for CBALN, then they might not for a Antibody Aug 13, 12:11

OOps, strike summer. {nm} Antibody Aug 13, 12:12

interesting points but my portfolio is still a bloodbath at the moment blaze223 Aug 13, 12:08

Truth be told, I kind of doubt the film even happens under these circumstances. notfabio raises the point that Depp could drop out, which I ShawnMR Aug 13, 12:17

Good article, but still, you have to take into account that they want to make budget cuts... [LONER] norablindsided Aug 13, 12:59

X-Men was Jackmans first Big Budjet movie mate, Patrick Stweart and Sir Ian were the biggest names in it, Jackman was made from this movie {nm} Smarch Aug 14, 03:14

The worst part about this for me is that I lost my $1.69 purchase price in my portfolio. :) {nm} draggar Aug 14, 11:01

I love how everyone is tagging LONER when expressing their opinion. Tags are to be used for news. {nm} Nightfury82 Aug 13, 13:35

Yeah my last post was tagged, and I didn't really know it would show up there. My bad. {nm} norablindsided Aug 13, 14:32

I personally feel its foolish to think this movie won't get made. Perhaps it will get pushed back to 2013 or even 2014. But they will work Nightfury82 Aug 13, 13:57

Yeah it will definitely get made. Maybe stalled until summer, but I think that they will have to rework everything norablindsided Aug 13, 14:33

Good article well done. On another note, thank goodness that we got saved from that monstrosity. {nm} norablindsided Aug 13, 16:03

You are siting a script from 2009. I bet its been retooled since. {nm} SparkleMotion Aug 13, 20:57
