5 Reasons (Maybe) White House Down Wasn't a Hit
26 minutes ago | BuzzSugar | See recent BuzzSugar news »
A funny thing happened this week at the box office: Channing Tatum's new release, White House Down, was not at the top. It didn't even come in second - it was third, which is a big drop, considering that he had three blockbuster hits in 2012. What went wrong? We have a few ideas. Allow us to speculate on what, exactly, White House Down lacks. 1. Channing Tatum doesn't dance. 2. Channing Tatum doesn't get to make out with anyone. Get the rest of the reasons after the jump. »

"White House Down" Flops! What Happened Channing Tatum?
1 hour ago | Manny the Movie Guy | See recent Manny the Movie Guy news »
Yes, folks, "White House Down" flopped at the box-office. Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx were no match for the star power of Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy whose "The Heat" triumphed at No. 2 with a $40 million debut. "White House Down?" $25.7 million and with a reported budget of $150 million, it's a certifiable flop! Worst than "After Earth," "Jack the Giant Slayer," and "The Hangover Part III."
So what happened? Well, first, there was a movie called "Olympus Has Fallen" that shared the same DNA as "White House Down." And actually, I found that movie better than the Tatum-Foxx collaboration. Why? Because it had a singular vision -- the terrorists are bad, but don't worry, Gerard Butler is here to save the day. Its simplicity is what saved the film.
"White House Down" has a lot of angles that people were not able to connect the dots. Is it about White House being attacked? »

Why The Hell Didn't You See White House Down?
2 hours ago | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
White House Down became a mystifying flop this weekend, making just $25 million and watching The Heat run away with all its buddy cop buzz. But White House Down had two really charismatic stars and a bunch of crazy moments and flippin' Roland Emmerich behind it! What the hell happened? Katey and Sean-- who have already, full disclosure, declared their love for the movie in front of the actual White House-- try to figure it out below. Do we blame Olympus Has Fallen? The Heat? Is it all Channing Tatum's fault? Help us solve the mystery. Katey: Sean, we are both heartbroken today. It is a sad day for America. It is the day that we have to admit that our fellow Americans have failed us. Sean: And completely shocked us. By turning their backs on White House Down, audiences appear to have blasted a gaping hole in the middle »
Will Melissa McCarthy Be the Next Will Ferrell or the Next Jack Black?
2 hours ago | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
The Heat grossed an impressive $40 million this weekend, putting it on track to be Melissa McCarthy's second hit comedy in the last six months. Sure, some of that had to do with co-lead Sandra Bullock, a genuine movie star. But Bullock was the straight woman; it was McCarthy who had to bear most of the comedic burden. This was also the case in Identity Thief, which got middling reviews yet did incredibly well, grossing $135 million domestically on the back of McCarthy's appeal. On a weekend when the fourth-place debut of Channing Tatum's White House Down dampened Hollywood's hopes that they had a new action star who could ensure surefire hits, McCarthy has emerged as comedy's new sure thing ... at least for now. But how long can it last? She's at a point where the decisions she makes over the next few years could either position her as »

Ice Cube's Taking Kevin Hart (and Audiences) on a Hilarious 'Ride Along'
3 hours ago | Fandango | See recent Fandango news »
Buddy action movies rise and fall on the chemistry shared between the leads. Audiences felt Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy had plenty, so The Heat became a weekend smash. The same ticket buyers didn’t buy into Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx, so White House Down struggled. Ride Along shouldn’t have such problems. Pairing comedian Kevin Hart with tough guy Ice Cube for a buddy-cop comedy looks like a masterstroke, if the teaser trailer for Tim Story’s upcoming film is any indication. The set up is short, sweet and incredibly simple. Hart plays a security guard who’s trying to impress his girlfriend’s brother (Ice Cube). In order to prove himself, he agrees to go on a police-sanctioned Ride Along....

Film Face-off: 'Die Hard' vs. 'White House Down'
5 hours ago | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »
Sure, the easy thing to do would have been to compare White House Down with the other White House/president-under-attack movie that just came out three months ago known as Olympus Has Fallen. And by "easy" I mean that Jacob Hall already did it with his fantastic article "How Does 'White House Down' Compare to 'Olympus Has Fallen'?" He correctly pointed out that White House Down is a better flick. Let's consider that the first round, and thrust Down into the finals against the big boy. That's right, in this week's Film Face-off it's time for this "Die Hard at the White House" film to take on Die Hard. John and His Sidekick White House Down John Cale (Channing Tatum) is a Capitol...

'White House Down' flops at the box office: What went wrong?
5 hours ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
"White House Down" was supposed to be one of the surefire hits of the summer.
Channing Tatum became a bona fide movie star last year with a sleeper hit trifecta of "The Vow," "21 Jump Street" and "Magic Mike" (not to mention being named People's Sexiest Man Alive). Jamie Foxx was coming off his biggest box office success to date with the Oscar nominated "Django Unchained." And director Roland Emmerich has experience both directing blockbuster hits ("2012," "The Day After Tomorrow") and destroying the White House in a patriotic summer movie sensation ("Independence Day").
But even with that pedigree and high profile pre-release hype dating all the way back to Jimmy Kimmel's post-Oscars ABC special (where Foxx and Tatum turned catchy/silly slow jam "Channing All Over Your Tatum" into a viral hit), "White House Down" shocked Hollywood with a embarrassingly limp $25.7 million estimated opening weekend.
That's the lowest action movie »

Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy brought The Heat against Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx at the box office.
The Fox action-comedy starring the funny ladies as mismatched detectives earned $40 million in second place in its opening weekend, topping the $25.7 million debut haul of Sony's White House Down, according to studio estimates.
The Disney-Pixar animated prequel Monsters University remained box-office valedictorian in its second weekend, earning $46.1 million in first place. »

'White House Down' Maggie Gyllenhaal: 'Jamie Foxx was so funny on set'
7 hours ago | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
White House Down's Maggie Gyllenhaal has touted her co-star Channing Tatum's sex appeal and Jamie Foxx's quick wit.
The Academy Award nominee quipped in a chat with Just Jared that Tatum is just as sexy in real life as he is in movies like Magic Mike.
"He's Channing Tatum, he's sexy, he's sweet, he's great," Gyllenhaal said, further commenting: "He's great to work with!"
The actress also praised fellow White House Down star Foxx, who plays the Us president in the terrorism-themed thriller.
"I don't know if I'm totally allowed to say this, but Jamie Foxx was my favourite! He's so great," she declared.
"[Jamie] made me laugh so hard that [director] Roland [Emmerich] had to come into the helicopter and say 'Stop making her laugh'. But I thought, 'Ok, this Secret Service agent loves the president'."

Does Buzz Not Matter In The Summer Of 2013?
8 hours ago | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx watched their dreams of a summer box office hit burn slowly to the ground, much like the Capitol Building the trailer for the movie they hoped would get them there, "White House Down." The $150 million buddy action movie came from blockbuster maker, director Roland Emmerich, and a script that Sony Pictures paid $3 million to acquire, and yet it couldn't stand up to returning films, "Monsters University" and "World War Z," and the new competition "The Heat," making only $25 million.
So how does a movie with all of that going for it and two leads coming off the biggest year of their careers fail at the same time a film like "World War Z," the Brad Pitt zombie fest that had nothing but bad buzz, crosses the $250 million mark at the global box office?

Movie Review: 'White House Down'
8 hours ago | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
Starring Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jason Clarke, James Woods, Richard Jenkins, and Joey King.
Directed by Justin Lin
Rated PG-13
What happens when you take a disaster-porn director, mix in Channing Tatum, The White House, homages to 1980s action flicks, and humor? You get a pretty decent but fun action movie that will have you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. White House Down, directed by Roland Emmerich (you know, the guy behind Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow), may not win any awards for its message, aesthetic, or acting, but if taken at face value, you’ll be guaranteed a fun ride you can enjoy with people around you.

'White House Down' Channing Tatum: 'Jamie Foxx is way tougher than me'
9 hours ago | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Channing Tatum has revealed that he and White House Down co-star Jamie Foxx got on from the first time they met.
Tatum stars in White House Down as a police officer who helps the Us President (Foxx) stop a terrorist plot.
In an interview with Flicks and Bits, the actor discussed his working relationship with co-star Foxx.
"Jamie and I got along from jump," Foxx recalled. "Oddly enough we had met for the first time before shooting at this function thing for Sony, whatever thing that they have, I don't understand exactly, but it's awesome so I'm just like, 'Yeah, I'm going'."
He continued: "The man can literally do anything. There's a piano in one of the hallways that leads to the residence in the White House, and in between takes he's just over there playing jazz and you're just like, 'S**t!' Then he stands up and he's Jamie Foxx, »
‘Side Effects’ is another great thriller from Soderbergh,

Directed By Steven Soderbergh
Written by Scott Z. Burns
USA, 2013
It is with a significant pang of regret in 2013 that we bid a fond adieu to director Steven Soderbergh, but at lerast we have the smnall placebo of two remaining films from the incredibly profligate director, beginning with his penultimate film Side Effects. If you’ll excuse the pun I don’t wish to get too ‘side’tracked but I think there are a few crucial items to consider before we delve into the movie itself, a concluding episode to his career which is as expected a superb contemporary drama which springboards into other areas with the dexterous ease of a state drilled East German Olympic gymnast, namely what on earth could drive such a prolific and endlessly inventive cinematic soul into potential big-screen retirement? Soderbergh has professed an interest in shifting his muse to painting or perhaps »

What Went Wrong?
11 hours ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
"White House Down" is a flop, no matter how many fans of the film chastise the American public for not showing up. Roland Emmerich's latest feature was budgeted at a reported $150 million, but earned just $25.7 million at the box office this past weekend. That's a lower opening weekend tally than 2013 disasters like "After Earth," "Jack the Giant Slayer" and "The Hangover Part III"; that's lower than the R-rated, similarly themed "Olympus Has Fallen"; that's just $200,000 more than "Battleship."
"We couldn't be more proud or supportive of the film Roland, Channing and Jamie created. This weekend's launch is just the beginning," a Sony spokesperson said to THR. "While 'White House Down' opened in a few smaller countries this weekend, it will not begin to open in major overseas territories until mid-July and it will continue to roll out overseas well into the fall."
That optimism aside, "White House Down »

White House Down's Jamie Foxx And Channing Tatum Reveal The Secret To Their Bromance
11 hours ago | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
You don't even have to see White House Down to know that its stars, Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx, are pretty into each other. The two have been unofficially doing publicity for the movie for months now, starting with their post-Oscars appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which brought us the instant ear worm classic "Channing All Over Your Tatum." It involved Tatum writhing on a piano and shoving everyones' minds into the gutter. It was pretty great. By the time they followed it up with a full-fledged music video last week it was pretty obvious that the chemistry between Capitol cop John Cale (Tatum) and President James Sawyer (Foxx) was going to be one of the main reasons to see White House Down, the new action movie in which terrorists take over 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and only one man can help get the President out alive. It also helps that the »
Discuss: Why Do Big-Budget Action Films Bomb in Theaters?
12 hours ago | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
Brad Pitt's $200 million "World War Z" zombie film was all set to be a huge flop in theaters, until positive reviews started appearing online at the last second. Now it looks like the movie has a small chance of becoming profitable, barely. At the same time, Will Smith's $130 million "After Earth" sci-fi film and Channing Tatum's $150 million "White House Down" action movie surprisingly bombed in theaters. And Guillermo Del Toro's $220 million "Pacific Rim" and Johnny Depp's $250 million "The Lone Ranger" are on track to flop as well. So one must wonder, with why do films with top movie stars, based on popular properties, with huge budgets and talented directors keep flopping? Steven Spielberg and George Lucas recently predicted that studios would focus more on big-budget films for theatrical release, while dumping smaller budget movies straight to DVD, VOD or TV. But that doesn't seem to be the case, »
