Every movie Kristen Stewart makes flops at the box office. Her Snow White movie will too, she is not a draw. There are plenty of people who have successful Indie movies, stop using that excuse for her. Pattinson\’s \’Water for Elephants\’ was based a best-selling Oprah approved book. It should have made a fortune but it did just O.K. Abduction is an action movie that should have attracted men at $20 plus million, but it didn\’t happen. All three twilight actors will have problems in the future. They are limited actors riding the wave of current Twilight fame and tabloid headlines.

How badly do you think Disney is regretting Lion King\’s bluray release next week?

@Lord

Gotta disagree.

Get R-Patz and K-Stew outside of the ridiculous,abhorrent franchise that is Twilight, and they are good actors.

R-Patz did a indie movie called Little Ashes where he plays Salvador Dali, I thought he was fantastic in that role. It\’s a quirky movie though and you have to go into it with an open mind.

It\’s a movie his younger fans probably shouldn\’t see.

Pattinson and Stewart can\’t act no matter how much their PR people hype them and the media sells them. Water For Elephants didn\’t completely flop because it\’s based on a popular book. Stewart\’s films all flop and her Snow White film will too because it will come after the Julia Robert\’s one and it\’s released around the same time as Ridley Scott\’s Prometheus.

Stewart\’s indies all flopped because they were bad and people loath her.

Is anyone really surprised that Twilight fans didn\’t show up to Lautner\’s movie? Hollywood seems to think that if you have a Twilight star in your movie it automatically means bank. Pattinson is the only one who will bring in the bucks,not just domestically, but it appears worldwide too.

I\’m in two minds whether or not to go see Abduction. I don\’t want to waste my money and time on what appears to be an absolutely terrible movie, but I might go and see it just for the laughs.

Given the reviews of Lautner\’s performance, the guy better strike while the Twilight iron is hot. Pattinson and Stewart are actually making good choices for their present and future\’s (looking forward to On The Road and can\’t fkn wait for Cosmopolis). Those two are picking quality projects with quality people which should and I think will, give them longevity in the business, it also helps that they can actually act , where as this guy doesn\’t seem to have the chops to do anything other than action flicks, and he apparently isn\’t even any good in them.

And for some reason unbeknown to me, I\’m actually loving the fact the the Lion King is topping the Box Office LOL

Feeling bad for the wolf kid being treated like a product, OIC his father producing the movie. Checking BOM Pattison opened Water for elephants ~17m to ~120 total and it was a drama. Abduction is an action movie directed by John Singleton, projections around ~36 USA to ~70 total. Stewart\’s indies are, well, indies, as it was Remember me. Snow white and the huntsman should be her big test. Wish them good luck.
