Now, we know they can't work together on all films so they split up: here were the results (outside of alot of crap they did ( e.g.: "Neighborhood Watch").
<<< Both examples, conveniently enought were released in 2011, offerng healthy parity>>>>>>>>>
Wilson: "Hall Pass." This film was a surprise - I laughed my ass off - Richard Jenkins blew me away as Coakley. Some of the funniest scenes and lnes I have seen in a loooooong time. Great film - loved it. 7.7709 / 10 (unusually high score for a comedy).
Vaughn: "The Dilemma.' What a horrible, embarrassing, humilaiting experience this had been for the viewers, and I am sure the actors, respectively. I did not laugh once throughout the entire film - up until the 60% mark when I turned it off, hoping to keep my eyeshight in fear of being blinded by the treachery, the terrible waste of film. However, Wynone Rider had a great scene when she acted - pure genius, when her and Vaughn are at the diner and she pretends to cry - she is a gem. This film was a shi*-show- completely unfunny - and yes, it is coming - the dilemma must have been having to go forward with this mess ( I did like how the manager who worked under James, switched his screeen from a spreadhseet to porno - while at work - very funny).
CONCLUSION: After watching both pieces, my appraisal was confirmed after checkking the profitability of the pair.
Hall Pass: COST $36 mm GROSS REVENUE: $83mm
The Dilemma: Cost $80mm (adusted for reality) Gross Revenue: $62mm (adjusted real figures,
Wikipedia lies about the revenue just to stroke all particiaonts ego's - much better to BREAK EVEN, right?!?!?!? Taking a loss hurts all parties... unlike this blog - which s0peaks the truth - and gives the real deal - wiki and other sites will do what they can to preserve money making potential- keeping things positive.
WOW! What a difference! Vaughn takes the "L" on this but - guess who wrote the screenplay for:
Yep! You guessed it! Vince Vaughn!!
Again, I preach this, and maybe I concentrate on it too much... but really>>??!?? are you telling me that Vince Vaughn is the only person who can come up with a funny script - developed well enough to make into a film>!>!>/? Out of the total population in the universe... really>>!??!?!
Again, again, this is the fundamental flaw with h-wood. A saturation of muck yielding torture. My solution is simple - tour the country - fill stadiums - and do what Amercian Idol does. The economic rights to intellectual property is really what is of value - and the objuective is not to stealk someone's idea - which would have to be inserted within all associated person's emplyment contract, the idea is to find individuals - to create a brain-trust pool... so each major studio ( Warner, Universal, Sony, Weinstein, Disney) can have this innnovative pool of idea potential. I feel this will increasde the qulaity of what we are seeing now... plus, rather than wasting special effects on shi*, there could be real synergy and the results could give the entertainment a new name, a new goal to stive for, but more importantly, a new standard. Sure, they can be creative on where they hide their pyramid... and yes, they can have chcerflags as a logo for a store... and yes, they can hide alien faces in the backdrop... but there will be (the potentially high possibility of a wealth of new ideas for film) really good ideas.
That's my story - oh, and the "supposed" figures on wiki - paint one picture- but ther real numbers for the project look like this:
"The Internship" Cost: $66 mm, Gross Revenue $70mm
Ugh - Eeeewwwhh- another break-even.
