I think Michael has enough behind him that he never 'has' to do anything for his supper again.

I completely agree. He better take the time out.
True, they can be entertaining, especially with the way they are written. Truthfully, I think once in a while they actually DO turn out to be true. So, to say that it's complete ******** is not entirely accurate, it's just that the chances of anything written being true is not very high at all. Hence, why it's a little naive to take what's written/published there as fact.
Some people can't see beyond the box office though...Different values I guess...
Bit of a difference between being upset by or discussing something you find to be poor taste.
What's the old saying...even a broken clock is right twice a day...but not because it's functioning...
Sure. I'm sure the Ewan McGregors, Jude Laws, Clive Owens', and even a James McAvoy felt that way at some point also. We have had this conversation before, at some point you have to show the receipts, especially if you want make the films YOU want to make.

In fairness some of those writers would be considered outstanding if 'fanfic' wasn't their tag. But I wouldn't want it shoved in my face.
LOL - very true - and at least it doesn't pretend to be anything other than fantasy!
Just curiosity: have you ever read Cherik fanfics? I haven't. I'm not very into the fanfics mania... But I know many people who write and read it. I know 90% of the people will never admit they do it, but I was just curious. Nothing wrong or to be ashamed of
I just don't find them appealingI've read and written it. Still do actuallyJust curiosity: have you ever read Cherik fanfics? I haven't. I'm not very into the fanfics mania...

Even though many of his fans may not care about BO receipts (myself included), depending on what kind of career he's looking for, that is something that is of at least some importance to him. If he's looking for a bigger career with longevity, then BO will absolutely matter. It's unfortunate, but it's the way of the business, especially with how people generally pick which movies to go see at the cinemas.
This isn't discrediting his talent and respect by his peers in the industry, by any means, but if BO wasn't important to one's career in the industry and big wigs in film production companies, we wouldn't even be seeing him or his peers doing promos for movies since they wouldn't matter. There's a reason why they have to advertise their movies by doing things like interviews, press junkets, and things even beyond that.
I have confidence he'll do a good promo for AC, however, especially since he has more control over production and promotion unlike most of his previous movies.
