More Talent Score Changes Glimpsed At


Back with more this and that concerning recent changes to Talent Scores.

Beyond the Horizon exited as quietly as it played. Roughly $150 million in domestic gross, everyone associated with the film, including director Terry Gilliam, was pleased with the result... but not greatly.

On the other hand, CzarTim's unlucky (small "u" intentional), winner of the recent Best Picture Yoda, performed well in theatres. Gaining $261,004,643, director McG and star Elizabeth Banks (pictured above, hubba hubba) fared well with their TS raises. But it's co-star Bruce Willis who should be happiest... his TS went from 12.749 to 14.084. Just one or two more hit films and it may be Bruno's mug we see in the top 3 actors display.

TMNT: Origins may have had an interesting ad campaign, but with just over $177 million, it didn't shake up the Talent Scores of its participants much... though raises were seen by all.

However, Wonder Inc's Witness saw more receipts with a little more than $198 million. This was good news for all except for star Will Smith. With a TS of 13.483, he would only be able to get jiggy if the movie made just over $202 million. His Talent Score dropped to 13.441. However, Al Pacino was happy enough to see his TS pass 10 for the first time with a new score of 10.922. Hoo hah!

More to come....
