King Mark 3,625 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 The movie was set to release in July, so the score must have been recordednow maybe they'll replace that..Still a Febuary relase date is worrysome, we usually get movles like Ghostrider 2 or I, Frankenstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 This will be an opportunity to chop it up and move it around to other parts of the film because it'll probably go through a massive re-edit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Woops. *official There is no way that a month out from release visual effects are somehow 8 months behind. They would have to be sleeping on the job for the last 8 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Right. You're saying since the official excuse is the VFX are behind schedule, what you think is really happening is the film tested poorly and is going to be reworked, or just dumped off in the off season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Yup. Someone on IMDb who apparently predicted this was coming several days before hand seems to indicate the same thing:Posted May 29:Because of the surprising low tracking surveys, the inexplicable popularity of Guardians of the Galaxy and the recent release date change of Lucy, many WB's executives are pushing for a move to March 20, 2015. They believe a late winter/early spring is more suitable JA than a summer date. I agree, a big budget non-existing property hard scifi would have a struggle during the summer months, as shown by its tracking numbers. It would be better to release this film before the summer movie flood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 452 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 You mean Slashfilm?The film (and thus, sadly, Giacchino's score) has been delayed until February 2015.Source: http://www.slashfilm.com/jupiter-ascending-delay-february-2015/That's a bummer. I guess the waiting continues...Cause yea, it's mentioned right there.I simply don't buy the "we need more time to finish the VFX" excuse, if it truly was then WB would simply hire more VFX houses to complete the film in time for the original date. (A similar situation would be 300: Rise of an Empire, but that was completed on schedule and pushed to the same weekend that its predecessor did well in.) Likely scenario is that Jupiter isn't testing well, and WB decides to avoid tarnishing their beloved mid-July spot with a certain-to-be flop by moving it to winter.The Variety article mentioned WB's domestic distribution head Dan Fellman, who noted that Captain America: The Winter Soldier and The LEGO Movie did well outside the usual release weekends. Maybe he's right and maybe the film will succeed outside the summertime. But the new date isn't exactly a reliable one either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Tarnishing their July spot? It's not like audiences will see the Warner logo in future films and say "better avoid that!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,625 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Well, I did see the trailer and it looked pretty bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uni 306 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I hadn't paid much attention to this movie until I heard it would be delayed. That led me to watch the trailers. I agree the "delayed effects schedule" is a red herring; they started working on the VFX before they began filming the movie (probably before the script was even done). I'd put hard money on the table that it's testing horribly—and that 90% of the reason is the casting. Who the hell puts Mila Kunis in a role where she's supposed to be some kinda universe-saving queen? She has almost no acting chops, apart from her basic self-portrayal in That 70s Show, and certainly doesn't have the mojo to carry a movie like this on her shoulders. And Channing Tatum isn't exactly Mr. Charisma, either. I can't see this pair holding the pivot point of an intergalactic epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 It sounds great, doesn't it? The movie looks okay enough. I like Kunis and Tatum is becoming less and less like his starting self. Maybe he's on the cusp of a big acting break like Franco was able to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 452 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 WB obviously haven't updated the Jupiter Ascending website to reflect the new release date. Usually whenever WB changes the dates on big movies, they're implemented ASAP on the corresponding website.http://www.jupiterascending.com/index.htmlDo they not even care anymore?
