Justin Timberlake Is Box Office POISON

Filed under: Canadialand > Justin Timberlake > Film Flickers > Jessica Alba > Mike Meyers

love-guru-poster.jpg

Just about every movie that Justin Timberlake has starred in has bombed.

This is no exception!

In a battle at the box office on Friday night, the Mike Meyers/Justin flick was ass slapped - hard by Steve Carrell and Anne Hathaway.

J.T.'s Love Guru is expected to take in a disastrous $14 million in America this weekend, whereas Anne and Steve's Get Smarth is projected to make $40 million.

That's a major whooping!

    um i don't think its justin timberlake in this case, that movie just looks too horrible for even the average american to think is funny.

    the movie will bomb because it's about the Toronto Maple Leafs. Everything they touch fails.

    I think the Love Guru is going to bomb because it isn't funny - the trailer didn't even make me laugh once. Get Smart though, actually looks funny.

    mike meyers is overrated anyway & jessica alba can't act, let alone do comedy so in this case i don't think the ratings have much to do with JT, who looks like ass by the way. have you lot seen the posters where he's doing that bruce lee pose? bruce lee is probably turning in his grave

  18. chick says – reply to this

    Which is sad, because Southland Tales was an AMAZING movie with him in it. Also, I don't necessarily think that it all has to do with Justin. I went and saw both last night, and although I loved both movies THOROUGHLY, I do agree that Get Smart was the… er… smarter movie ;) . Face it, if your uninterested in austin powerseque movies, bollywood, and the toronto maple leafs, then you won't really enjoy this movie.

    no it's more like jessica "don't call me latina" alba who is box office poison!!!!!

    I think this is JESSICA ALBA"S fault. AGAIN.
    Like every other movie she's in.
    Soo talentlessss!

    I'm shocked your not blaming this on Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba!!!!

    don't you mean every movie Jessica Alba's in bombs?

  25. 25

    I'd do Carrell over Myers anyday. so…. yay?
    But both movies will most likely suck. And yet I will see them both.
    Whoop. dee. do.

  26. 26

    this movie bombed not because of JT but simply because it sucks and you can tell just by the f*cking commercial that its gonna suck.

  27. JenD says – reply to this
    27

    I just dont find Mike Meyer's 'schtic' or however you spell that, funny. He plays the same type of character over and over and over and it is only funny for so long. This movie seems like Austin Powers only 10 years later.

    Steve Carrell is hot right now. I dont think any of this has to do with JT. Maybe a little with Alba however. But for me the big deterent is Meyers

    Jessica alba was so boring, damn her. Pretty face but just stop (trying) acting.

    Re: Lolit

    Ditto. Jessica Alba can't act. Plus the movie looks stupid. Verne Troyer looks ridiculous..The whole thing is a mess. Don't blame Justin!

    when the trailor sux you know the movie sux

  35. lyset says – reply to this

    It's not just Justin. It's Jessica Alba too. That was just really bad casting. Add to the issue another Mike Myers character that might sound and look amusing, but isn't that funny. The trailer was so stupid there was no way I was going to ever see this film.

  36. dsfj says – reply to this
    36

    well…
    first of all.
    its SMART, not SMARTH.

    second of all,
    i kinda wanna see the movie…

  37. Kim says – reply to this
    37

    i think its just that they made the movie look really dumb in the previews. I don't think it attracted very much people like myself but i have heard from others that its pretty funny but could have been better.

  38. Chris says – reply to this
    38

    Nothing to do with JT. The movie looked like complete crap … before they even started airing the commercials with his scenes in them.

  39. steph says – reply to this
    39

    umm. actually, i'm pretty sure it has everything to do with the fact that this movie looks absolutely retarded. the previews look ridiculous. it would have bombed, with or without justin. why all the hate for JT anyways?

  40. Chris says – reply to this

    Re: james

    Compared to what it cost to make and what the paid the actors. They're probably in the hole on this one.

    Since when is $14 million for 1 night a bomb?

  42. Rob says – reply to this

    No, an all-around, dumb-ass, shitty movie is box office POISON! They all get the blame for this piece of crap!

  43. FReal says – reply to this

    It's not Justin's fault at all. I have heard several times that he's the best part of the movie. He should be starring in comedies. Funny ones. With jokes.

  44. lesag says – reply to this

    its not JT. its ALBA thats box office poison

  45. Kate says – reply to this

    What about Jessica Alba? Shes soooo annoying.

    It's more like the curse of Jessica Alba

    It's not Justin. It's just that the Love Guru SUCKS. And check your spelling, btw.

    I'm not seeing this movie b/c of JT…conceited, and a bad actor. Also, Jessica Alba's acting skills are terrible!! So, lets put a famour pop star and a pretty girl with no acting skills in a movie so we can gouge the american public!

  49. jen says – reply to this
    49

    This movie is fucking hilarious! JT plays such a miniscule part in it really, its dumb that they have him so featured in the poster and ads. Even with Jessica Alba its a movie worth seeing it, its seriously funny!

  50. vicky says – reply to this

    The movie is so bad not because of JT.

    i blame alba, why is she famous again?

  52. Caris says – reply to this
    52

    this is stupid. Black Snake Moan got great reviews, but it's ads made it appear to be something it wasnt and would not have made a great deal of money. Alpha dog was great. This is not a movie he's starring in but he looks like he does a hilarious job. All his roles have been excellent. Don't blame justin, perez you stupid hater. alba bombs in EVERYTHING she's in!!!

  53. D says – reply to this

    That whole line up of actors just sucks and none of them are funny except Mike Meyers

  54. hater says – reply to this

    I CAN'T BELIEVE THESE PEOPLE GET "PAID" TO MAKE SHIT LIKE THIS ! Even watching the previews to this movie you could tell it was STUPID !!! And they get paid for this ????? DUMB ASS TO ANYONE THAT GOES/WENT TO SEE IT !!

    this movie looks TERRIBLE..it's got everything i hate in one place…blehh the previews are even hard to take.

    It's not JT's fault. I don't blame him. I blame Jessica DCML Alba.
    Leave my JT alone!!!!!

    I think you hate Justin cuz he wouldn't go out with you Perez!

  59. Amber says – reply to this

    I think it's more likely that Jessica Alba is the box office poison! She's cursed more than Justin is for sure!

  60. jenn says – reply to this

    this movie is cursed twice cause Jessica Alba is in it too.

  61. comet says – reply to this

    Is Justin 'starring' in this movie? Cuz I though Mike Meyers was the 'star'. Can't blame Justin for this.

  62. elle says – reply to this
    62

    i think it is fair to say that the movie just looked dumb and not funny at all so i am pretty sure that is the main reason why it bombed …also i think jessica alba is box office poison moreso than jt.

  63. Me says – reply to this
    63

    Let's see, Alpha Dog was amazing. Black Snake Moan was outstanding, then there is that pesky little Shrek 3, wow..yeah that bombed too. Could it just possibly be that the movie itself sucks donkey balls? The commercials for it are stupid.

    he needs to pick better films. even if he wasn't in it, the idea sucks. it's mike myers doing the same old shit. it's not funny anymore. plus jessica alba is SO not interesting. this movie had no chance

  66. k says – reply to this

    i don't think it's justin timberlake. i don't want to see the movie because of jessica alba. it's embarrassing to watch her TRY to be funny.

    Your hatred of Justin is getting really old perez. This movie is not justins fault. In fact, he's the only funny thing about the movie. This is a Mike Myers movie through and through and he's the one to blame. All the movies justin has done has only been bit parts. The failures have nothing to do with him. He has, in fact, gotten great reviews for his acting so you really need to get a life.

    Saw the movie last night. Timberlake was the only funny thing about the movie. Blaming him is ludicrous. Myers is to blame for the failure.

    It is TOTALLY Jessica's fault… She is the reason why I'm not going to see it.

  76. 76

    this is more of a steve vs mike thing than anything else… mike myers was funny as hell in the (first two) austin powers movies, but people wanna see him do somet different… steve always delivers no matter what he's in. nothing to do w/ jt, tho i agree that he sux balls. =))
