I don’t think it was marketed badly, it turned out to be exactly the movie I expected from the commercials, a funny yet serious movie based on real life events that had larger than life people. I’m not saying it’s going to comeback, there’s way too much stuff being released. The question isn’t did it bomb, the question is why and will said bombing make it harder to get a positive Iraq war movie out of Hollywood.
I’m not sure Bucket List is going to be huge, it’s actually pretty serious, two terminally ill guys living large on their way out the door does not promise to be light hearted fun.
