Megan Fox bombs at the box office

September 20th, 2009 // 112 Comments

And it’s official: Megan Fox has the box office draw of a ham sandwich. Jennifer’s Body debuted this weekend in fifth place with an embarrassing gross of only $6.8 million, according to Box Office Mojo:

1. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs – $30.1 million
2. The Informant! – $10.5 million
3. Tyler Perry’s I Can Do Bad All By Myself – $10 million
4. Love Happens – $8.45 million
5. Jennifer’s Body – $6.8 million

To put things in perspective, it lost to the second weekend of a Tyler Perry movie even after a 57% drop in ticket sales. That’s pretty fucking bad. Unless, of course, your name is Michael Bay then it’s pretty fucking awesome and an excuse to write “I told you” on the tip of your gigantic CGI boner.

    Since I’m fat, I may have gone to the theater to see a ham sandwich play her role in that crappy movie.

    She needs to visit a tanning salon asap. Especially with that dark hair.

    Otherwise, she looks beautiful as always. One of the hottest women in Hollywood, but I still don’t like her

    She worked very hard to get interest in the film. She fed the Fish every couple of days. These days, that seems like a prerequisite for getting more work. She’ll be back.

    Does she have the super agents of a Julia Roberts, Meg Ryan, or whats that chick with the forehead of a tank’s name. erm, that legally blonde broad. I think not. She’s not America’s “sweetheart” how do you expect her to carry a movie…

    BTW: I feel compelled to defend Megan because I love an under dog…

    It didn’t do as bad as you think… It only had a $16M budget! Maybe $25M total with ads etc. SO it will make it’s money back and more, just not billions. And don’t forget DVD/blu-ray where it will make TONS

    Who the fuck cares. She really isn’t that great of an actor, and sounds a bit bitchy about who she works with. So who cares, everybody knew this movie would suck anyway

    She looks kind of pale and gaunt here, in some sort of misguided attempt to class it up.

    You know what? I like the sleazy, greasy, tanned Megan. And I like that she has a little meat on her arms and legs, unlike here.

    Well, what do you expect when you try to sell a movie only on sex appeal? The previews only sold sex appeal (and we all knew there would be no nudity). It has to have some other content/selling point or people will just watch porn.

  28. The Observer | September 20, 2009 at 4:20 pm

    She’s too stupid to be attractive, and she coats her face with too much gunk to be beautiful.

    Letting everyone know that she wasn’t getting naked in this movie probably cut ticket sales in half.

    She had to become pale and very skinny for the role, she said it herself in several different interviews.

    In ten years, it’ll be Megan Who and she’ll be very very very disturbing to look at, and unnerving to listen to and she’ll be doing web porn with animals in Transnistria.

    YOU FREAKING FOOLS, BEFORE YOU LAUGH KEEP THIS IN MIND…

    These kind of films typically bomb at the box office, this wasn\’t going to be a mainstream hit to begin with.

    This is the type of film tons of people are curious to see, but don\’t actually go see while in the theater, mostly because of the bad mouthing and stigma associated with both Megan and this genre of film, so they don\’t admit it but will rent it when it goes to DVD.

    DID ANY OF YOU GOONS KNOW THAT ROGER EBERT GAVE THIS FILM 3 OUT OF 4 STARS?? From what i am reading, the reviews aren\’t that bad, it\’s just of course everybody is going to poke fun and hate, that is what Hollywood has become all about. Blah!

    I actually wanted to see this. I like Diablo Cody… but I just can’t give this bitch any more of my money until she starts showing her tits and shutting her mouth.

    It’s okay to be outspoken. It’s fine to be legally retarded. It’s just best if you’re not both.

    I was going to remind everyone that she’s just a young woman, that she’ll grow as an actress and person, that there could be a million reasons why the movie failed.

    Then I remember that she said she would never do a nude scene.

    FUck that no talent, stuck up bitch.

    Well lol, it hasn’t even been released to the rest of the world yet. Just wait until it opens here in Europe. It’ll be a financial sucess.

    Besides, it’s more likely that it’ll do well when it comes on dvd and shit. Young men can’t masturbate at the cinema you know.

    @ 21 look up JUNO…a movie budget will not make a movie better or profitable. TALENT on the otherhand can make a cheap movie really good.

    This movie looked lame from the previews. Face the truth, remove Megan Fox out of the equation and this movie would have been premiered on Syfy.

    Let’s take a pragmatic look at her acting abilities. Wait, she has none.

    Ok. NEXT?!!

    This bitch is as fake as they come, and sad thing is no one sees it yet. She can’t act, she can’t talk (intelligently) She acts like shes some sex queen yet she is too chicken shit to get naked in a movie that had it’s views based on the previews, (and don’t call it “classy” that she didn’t get naked. This bitch is far from classy) Reason she supposedly got “pale” for this role is because she was never tan to begin with. Her tan was a fake ass tan, why do you think she got pale so fast? Also, did I mention she can’t act for balls? Guys only think she’s sexy because that’s all she has going for her is her looks. Girls only hate her because they are not jealous, they’re just tired of hearing about this bitch whine and complain! Guys will eventually realize once they take their eyes off her tits and their ears off her ass, She’s nothing but a ditzy, prude, and retarded excuse for an actress. Angelina Jolie? Bitch Please, you aren’t even worthy to stand on a pedestal with you being the runner up against Angelina Jolie’s shit. Take a hike megs, not many people like you, and soon when you realize that, get on drugs and overdrink yourself turning yourself into a Lindsay Lohan, you’ll be the dirt under the rug honey, Sorry to be so blunt, but I’m sure many people male and female will agree. Obviously why your movie failed.
