50million really isn't cheap. Compared to the blockbusters sure, but that is in the average range for the mid tier films.
Not really comparable at all. Ridley Scott's production studio Scott Free produces a TON of movies and TV Shows a year. He has a lot of good will through that he can get pretty much any film he wants bank-rolled.
Blomkamp does not have this kind of leverage.
DUFF stand for "Designated Ugly Fat Friend", it's a about a girl in high School that's label as "The DUFF" so she has to overcome that label and save her last year on High School, BTW she looks like this
Her?

They are cheap for Sci fi movies, and they were profitable. Chappie´s performance is not good in the US, and is still remained to be seen.

"Honey, I'm so tired of seeing R-Rated movies at the cineplex. Can we pass on the robot movie?"
"Sure dear. I'm sure there'll be another R-Rated actionfest next week that we can both enjoy."
"You bet!"
Weird time of year, Oscar stuff is over and the summer explosionfest is just around the corner.
Rolling in that Good Wife/Numb3rs money.

honestly I think the disney brand matters so much that people would be sceptical of seeing any film based on these properties, that they popularised, and wasnt made by them

it won in a very weak year and these other movies are making bank WW (300 million more each).
but no doubt that it is a huuuuge success.

she's so ugly, she plays a high schooler at 26.
Now Costner needs to save the Asians.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
It would be nice to think that Vaughn's shitty new movie was a sign that his star might finally be fading, but True Detective will put him right back in the spotlight, and he'll keep churning out these terrible films.
I don't think he's had an actual box office hit in ages, so it's like people have been lining up for him.
Chinese numbers are $24M for Jupiter Ascending's opening weekend. The film will probably do around $50M in China.
you definitely aren't

I know, it's just that he somehow has continued to get these leading roles even if they're not resulting in box office numbers. Something's gotta give eventually... maybe...

Looks like Kingsman has legs. Glad people are going to see it.
I really wanted to see Elysium back then but haven't. And I have to be honest, that I guess Blomkamp haven't had a hit with me yet, as I found District 9 immensely boring - but I'll give it another chance sometime this month.

I can't believe Jupiter Ascending is STILL below the Wachowski Brothers' Cloud Atlas failure.
I didn't even realize Jupiter Ascending had come out. I was still waiting for it. 0_o

Mae Whitman's awesome, hopefully she gets more film roles
The Bluths would disagree
Chappie is the best movie this year. I actually might go see it again.
the duff isn't necessarily fat or unattractive, it's just the person less attractive in a group of friends
the movie points out its stupidity
That's really not how it works. That's dealing with entirely different sets of executives with different priorities. No one at Fox greenlit Exodus thinking it would perform better than Robin Hood and Kingdom of Heaven after looking at Scott Free's TV slate. The truth is that even Ridley Scott's box office disappointments aren't major bombs and executives will be all too eager to continue chasing the kind of money that Gladiator and Prometheus brought in. It's the same calculation that studios make with countless directors.

Good. I hope word of mouth keeps spreading.
Get ready for the triple booby-trapped womb
You don't get the intricacies of the story, dude. It's deep as shit.
What if Batman and Jim Gordon existed, Batman was evil as fuck and there was incest?
