lizabeth Banks has spoken out about new movie Charlie's Angels' poor performance at the US box office, blaming it on poor marketing.

The $50million reboot – which she wrote, produced, directed and starred in – pulled in a disappointing $8.6 million on its American debut last weekend, falling short of its projected $12-15 million domestic opening.

And when asked at Wednesday night's London premiere if she believed British audiences would respond better, the star told MailOnline: 'First of all, everyone that sees the movie loves the movie. I think that we had a problem with just, like, no one knew it was out.'

On the other hand, I hardly knew about this movie, until I watched Kristen Stewart on the youtube podcase “Hot Ones” (which was very entertaining, and I admit I am a fan of Kristen Stewart, for no discernible reason)

Maybe that’s true, Elizabeth. The problem for you is that so few saw the movie period.

Those three ugly semi-females was not the reason for the original series success. Charlies Angles - staring T & A.

They’re watching reruns of the real Charlie’s Angels.

Even a modern day Will Smith movie would make more than $8. Million. Will generally produces flops when he is the star.

And just who the Hell does she know who saw the movie and isn’t either directly dependent on her for their income or a part of the same sick system that backed and filmed the dud to which she refers?

Well darn. Maybe they should make the Angel's characters trans-gender. Or maybe lesbian?

You’re right C’sA’s was an original T&A show. Farrah Fawcett was the only reason to watch. It was a stupid show except for the T & A. The three stars faded after show was cancelled. How do you get a bit movie from just a third rate T & A?

This is, what, the 4th iteration of a non-original idea? And you are making excuses because no one wants to have another look at the dead horse you’ve beaten?

All you have to do is find some who saw it and ask them. I think there’s one over there behind the Sasquatch, right in front of the yeti. The girl riding the unicorn, just ask her.
