Variety: Digger tracking revised down to 12-15 million notfabio Sep 30, 07:18

The article goes into all of the WB losses for the year. {nm} Antibody Sep 30, 08:05

TC will play it safe from here on out. sad. {nm} lobogotti Sep 30, 08:50

Disagree. He's chasing an Oscar {nm} Moviesnob Sep 30, 09:07

He's not gonna get one for Days of Thunder. Will Paramount fund the next Oscar bait after? {nm} Antibody Sep 30, 09:57

Theyll say yes to anything he wants but the real issue is he'll need to continue to work with auteurs and will they want to work with Skynet {nm} Moviesnob Sep 30, 10:03

he just showed up for a Michael Mann screening. Heat 3 babeee {nm} jimothy Sep 30, 10:54

well, that's encouraging. but this is a unique role that I don't see him agreeing to try something daring in the near future. {nm} lobogotti Sep 30, 10:58

Yeah you're right. no one has ever won an oscar for doing something daring :-P {nm} Moviesnob Sep 30, 11:08

are you saying he has a chance at Oscar for this film? I just think over the next 10 years we see films that will guarantee a BO from TC. lobogotti Sep 30, 11:57

No, i am saying chasing an Oscar is the #1 priority. FWIW, most of the films you cited were not huge box office titles. Moviesnob Sep 30, 12:41

American Made was 9 years back. That's the last film pre-Digger for something that might not have BO appeal. lobogotti Sep 30, 13:25

well I defer to you. you're much more of a subject matter expert, and I sincerely hope he takes a swing at something to help earn him a lobogotti Sep 30, 13:23
