celeb news Julia Roberts’ new film smashes at Global B.O.; ends Margot & Billy

[nostalgia]

“Ticket to Paradise,” a romantic comedy that reunites Julia Roberts and George Clooney, is (surprise, surprise) charming audiences at the international box office.

 

The movie has generated $60 million overseas to date, a promising start given the current challenges facing theatrical rom-coms. Of course, it helps when the genre gets a boost from megawatt stars like Roberts and Clooney. According to Universal, which is backing the film, “Ticket to Paradise” is outpacing recent meet-cute stories like “The Lost City,” “Last Christmas” and “Crazy Rich Asians” at the same point in their respective big-screen rollouts.

 

Over the weekend, “Ticket to Paradise” earned $10.5 million from 61 territories, including debuts in France ($1 million), Mexico ($1 million) and Italy ($800,000). In holdover markets, “Ticket to Paradise,” which features Clooney and Roberts as ex-spouses who try to stop their daughter from marrying a near stranger, has been popular in Australia ($8.5 million), the United Kingdom and Ireland ($7.4 million) and Germany ($7.4 million). It opens Oct. 21 in the U.S. and Canada.

I wanted to watch it to support the Erin slaykovich chanteuse but the trailers give away the whole plot 

[Happylittlepunk]

It’s Julia roberts the literal queen of rom-coms. Plus she is a legend of course she better known than Margot Robbie and billy. 
 

 

[Oxy]

Fans of the 90’s superstars like Julia, Sandra, Tom, and George. Are the paying costumers unlike these new girls and their stans who barely support.

[itsdennis]

Love her and totally going to watch this movie

[TheWayWeWere]

is it her Something's Gotta Give moment?

[Desperate Fantast]

Well it's doing quite well outside English speaking regions, but pretty meh in the UK and Australia. It's projected to open $12-17m in North America, which is also quite underwhelming.

Julia's impact 

I've been rewatching all her rom coms from the 90s recently, I'll have to check this one out too.

[McNulty]

The way big movie stars from the 00's still have that impact is crazy

[MonsterJohn]

I don't get Julia hype, Nothing Hill sucked, and she had no charisma. Don't bother to check her other films

So you name one movie by her as an example of her lack of charisma, but then say you don’t need to see any of her other movies? 
 

she’s actually quite good in Notting Hill but that’s not even her best work so
