Mr. Box Office Flop 2012: Taylor Kitsch in review

Taylor Kitsch is shaping up to become Mr. Box Office Flop for 2012. John Carter is a certified box office bomb. Battleship is a major box office flop. The box office bomb meter is zeroing in on Savages. Will Taylor Kitsch prove naysayers wrong with a strong performance in the graveyard of former good actors movie - Savages?

According to IMDb, Taylor Kitsch completed 13 roles. Disney casted Taylor to carry their $250 million John Carter production. The film tanked, earning $73 million in domestic ticket sales and another $106 million in international ticket sales. John Carter scored $179 million in worldwide ticket sales. 

Battleship is a major box office flop. On IMDb and Box Office Mojo, the U.S. box office earnings put the movie at $25.5 million. The CEO of Comcast referred to Battleship as a box office bomb. The $209 million production budget does not bode well for NBC/Universal. However, Universal Studios will make monster ticket sales in The Fast and the Furious 6. We guarantee it! 

Should we blame poor box office performances on bad writing? Movie trailers? According to The Movie Blog, the comments suggest that a fan made movie trailer could have saved John Carter. Do this movie fans understand movie marketing? Are they really this naive? Nothing would have saved John Carter from tanking except casting an established actor. Taylor is far from a superstar. 

Savages will prove to be the last test of 2012. If Savages is upside down in ticket sales, don't expect Taylor to be starring in three movies next year. We have established film professionals writing and directing these movies. Either the stories are terrible, or we can look at miscasting the wrong actor to lead a high production as the destruction of a potentially good movie. 

We won't attempt to watch John Carter and Battleship. The two movies don't interest us at all. We welcome anyone that is interested in writing a spoiler and a film ending on our other websites. Leave your gmail address in the comment section below. We will give you access to a few spoiler and ending websites we run. In our opinion, the box office numbers tell the true tale. 

Taylor Kitsch lacks the experience to carry a large production. IMO, his acting resume is shaping up to be a disaster in 2012. Savages will either be a hit or a miss. Taylor surely needs a hit to wash out the bad taste in the two box office flops in John Carter and Battleship.
