>>19040096It's not just the budget, but horrible word of mouth. Compare this to Iron Claw which also might have had a disappointing opening weekend ($4.9M) but because it was talked so well from audience it made the same money with $4.6M only a 4% drop and $4.5M a 2% drop the next two weeks giving them $30 Million in three weeks on a $16 Million budget.
Smasher went from 5.8 to 1.8 M, by weekend 3 it will be under a milly. Iron Claw was able to get to $30M overall after the third weekend because of consistent positive word of mouth, SM isn't hitting $15 Million because of a huge drop off and that nobody cares
