KillerSlaw 01/19/20 7:40:32 AM #6:	He has so much fuck you movie he can do whatever he wants. That being said RDJ was never the draw that MCU fanboys made him out to be. Even Sherlock Holmes just did okay I think. People love him ad Iron Man but aren't goin ltg to see anything he is in just cause he is in it --- The personal is the political is a totalitarian progressive decree that I reject entirely. <cite>KillerSlaw posted [p:933166894] in Is Robert ...

I could just have been out of the loop tho but I feel like that's the only other comparable success for him. Both of those films were in the Top 10 box office of their respective years. From the first Iron Man to now he has: Sherlock Holmes franchise which was a success Tropic Thunder which got him a second Oscar nom Due Date which was forgettable but a financial success Two films which he was essentially a cameo The Judge which earned double it's budget against mediocre reviews And finally The Soloist which was his only true bomb since the MCU started but even then it was only a year after Iron Man. Since he started playing Tony Stark, RDJ has been nothing but bankable for movies. This bomb is more of an anomaly than an example of being not being a selling point for films. --- PoW '09 Topic of the Year Co-Winners (Rada and Texy) FFD <cite>Kastrada posted [p:933168249] in Is Robert ...

I already said Sherlock Holmes was his most comparable success, but even the 2nd one was mostly saved by the international market. Tropic Thunder is an ensemble film, so I'm not even factoring it in. Due Date made over double the budget back, while the Judge barely made it's budget back and probably didn't make money after marketing so I think you mixed those two up. If you actually look at the numbers, RDJ staring pictures that are not MCU films have had a slow but steady decline as time has gone on and Dolittle is just another in that list. I'm not saying RDJ is box office poison or that his films bomb, but he doesn't have the star power to save a medicore picture or even get people to see something more artistic. To be fair though, the days of stars pushing movies is pretty much over. Even people who say Tom Cruise is the last of these stars are dead wrong based on how many bombs he has had, I'm just convinced people like Mission Impossible. --- The personal is the political is a totalitarian progressive decree that I reject entirely. <cite>KillerSlaw posted [p:933169016] in Is Robert ...
