The Fall Guy did so poorly , the last film to do this poorly this weekend was Meg Ryan’s 1995 movie French Kiss

A movie where Meg Ryan shits herself!

Ryan Goaling’s collapse is complete.

“The Fall Guy”/I Hate Emily Blunt Troll cannot even get a phone call from his mother this weekend, ergo the countless threads about the performance of this otherwise forgettable film.

Let's flop together!

R3 you misunderstand the point of this thread

This is a stealth Meg Ryan thread!

Remember when she used to make little sounds? Adorable!

And now she looks like an oil painting of Barbra Streisand that’s been left out in the rain.

😳 I won’t have what she’s having.

Meg Ryan's hair was always too ambitious, she was doomed to fail eventually.

[QUOTE] Ryan Goaling’s collapse is complete.

I wish. Hollywood will not stop forcing him down our throats.

I'd lick her honey trail.

Since Ryan Gosling has been in hit movies, this is clearly flopping because of Emily Blunt.

Ryan Goaling has more filler in his face now than Meg.

Why did you make a new thread on this? You are the originator of the other thread. So why did you need to make another one?

I’m going to guess that English is not your first language, OP.

See this is the problem with there being no equivalent to Meg Ryan today.

This is the kind of movie where you would cast Meg Ryan.

The closest equivalent to Meg Ryan would be Emma Stone, but he’s already made three movies with her.

This movie failed due to a Meg Ryan DEFICIT.

Emily Blunt always plays the long suffering wife. Women don’t want to feel that when they go to a rom com. They want someone they can identify with but doesn’t threaten them. They want someone who CHOOSES a pixie haircut. They don’t want to look at Emily Blunt’s limp, brown ponytail.

R11 = Michael Buble.

Plus Emily is old. 41.

Anne Hathaway is her age and plays more age appropriate roles.

Meg Ryan’s rom com career ended before she hit 40.

This is what I don’t understand

Look what emerged from Meg Ryan’s vagina. A male Meg Ryan!

What has no one built a rom com around him?

R18 not with the facial wasting already and yellow teefs

I’m convinced Emily Blunt committed some atrocity against OP or one of his family members. It’s bizarre and unhealthy to have this much white hot hatred for someone you’ve never met who’s not a serial killer.

Gosling looks like he has Meg Ryan hair in that photo, OP!

The movie has a 7.3 rating on IMDB by almost 20,000 people. That’s a good rating.

I haven’t seen the film.

Thats a great point r21

You know it’s entirely likely that the child of Anthony Edwards and Meg Ryan’s Top Gun characters would have looked exactly like Ryan Gosling.

See how do you market a romcom with Emily Blunt’s RBF. She looks like she’s just soooooo disappointed in you because you started the Atomic Age.

Meg Ryan made nuclear physics fun!

This is the strangest thread.

Why is Meg Ryan and an old movie of hers the core topic of a “Fall Guy” thread?

These are not related. It’s so stupidly random.

OP was dropped head first on a concrete floor as an infant.

I’m seeing it Tuesday. It has 83% on RT and doesn’t star ugly British boys. That’s good enough for me! And Emily Blunt is lovely! I’d watch her in anything. Charm, class, grace, humor-she has it all! Emily Blunt will surely be the one to cure cancer. How lucky we are to have Emily Blunt in our lives! Shout it from the rooftops, fellas! EMILY FUCKIN’ BLUNT!

R26 Team Emily!!!!!

R26 lives in Peoria, IL and works at Supercuts. A British accent works wonders on the inferiority complex of Americans.

R26 and is also John Krasinski

My store was bring robbed at gunpoint. A small woman in a Prada dress and Miu Miu boots walked in on the robbery. She proceeded to take off one of those boots and beat the thief with it! Then she held him down with her legs around his neck until the cops arrived. That woman in Miu Miu boots was… Emily Blunt.

Just bought two tickets!

Go Emily! Gorgeous, talented and an inspiration.

We love you, Emily!

[quote] Team Emily!!!!!

Emily team

I’m taking my entire congregation to see Dame Emily Blunt in this instead of church next Sunday. She is truly our savior.

Such a regal, refined beauty. So elegant and cultured. She exudes intelligence.

Emily Blunt is a talent, a beauty and a role model as a wife and mother.

I will support all of her projects.

I never realized how truly bad Meg Ryan was. That scene on the train could have been the scene in the diner from When Harry Met Sally. Bowels turning to water = fake orgasm. She was the same in every damn movie. I guess that’s 90s romcoms.

Wow.

So.

Bad.

Is it really Ryan’s fault?

How do we know that Hannah Waddingham and Jason Momoa aren’t to blame?

I can’t imagine a world without my Emily.

I’m watching “Mary Poppins Returns” tonight just to get my Emily fix and support her. It will eventually be a cult hit.

Love you, Em Em!

I’m disappointed that we never got a Meg Ryan faking diarrhea scene.

The trailers looked bafflingly unappealing. Like an unfunny parody of an action rom-com.

I have no problem with Blunt and am a big Ryan Gosling fan, but will nit be seeing this one.

It looks like someone who is not Shane Black tried to make a Shane Black film.

Sharon Stone would have been perfect in the Emily Blunt role.

I was crying on a park bench one day worried about my father’s health. A lovely young woman in a Stella McCartney chunky cardi and YSL tennies asked me what was wrong. I explained my dad needed a kidney or he’d die. She grabbed my hand, hailed a cab(“no time for an Uber!” she cried) and we went directly to hospital where she gave my father a kidney. Because it was Emily Blunt, they immediately sent my father to surgery and it was all done in about half an hour. God bless Emily Blunt.

Hooray for Hollywood 🎥🎬🎉

My throat is next.

R41 An angel in Ferragamos.

Your story inspires and encourages. If any of us had the decency, empathy, self-sacrifice and goodness of Em Em, the world would be so much more loving and civilized.

My best to your father. And, of course, my best to Emily. ❤️

R9: He's a white guy so of course he is going to get chance after chance.

[quote] The Fall Guy did so poorly

And it's not even a Disney film

R39 exactly Gosling already MADE this film and it was called NICE GUYS. It also bombed.

Meg Ryan could have played the Kim Basinger role in that movie. They both go to the same surgeon apparently.

Gosling and his team must be feeling pretty nervous right now. His face is botoxed beyond repair, and albeit the marketing never made clear what the movie was about or for, he can't be relied upon to open an action or rom-com film.

Challengers was an even bigger flop. It killed the idea of Zendaya being able to open or carry a film, or Josh O'Connor ever being a leading man. At least The Fall Guy will be a hit on streaming services.

Mr. Goaling.

Fall Guy cost over 200 million with marketing, Challengers is half that.

I wonder if Josh OConnor and Meg Ryan could remake Harold & Maude.

My dying niece wanted nothing but a Paddinton Bear from Hamley’s in London. It was her last wish. So I cashed in my 401K, purchased a ticket to London and flew across the pond to make my angel’s dream come true.

As I reached the cash register, I realized I left my credit card in the states. I was crestfallen!

From behind my back, a black American Express card appeared, held by the most gorgeous porcelain hands I’ve ever seen.

“This is for Cayleigh,” she said.

It was Emily.

She not only purchased the priceless Paddington, she upgraded my flight to Business Class, paid for my to stay at the Savoy and pulled strings to get Cayleigh into an experimental treatment program. She’s now completely healed.

There are people. There are good people. And then there’s Emily Blunt.

R46, i was thinking of that film by way of comparison, in fact.

It's honestly one of my favorite movies.

I was feeling ugly and lonely when Emily Blunt took me to the Chateau Marmont and rimmed me until I was rock hard. She proceeded to give me three hours of the best oral ever. I know she didnt like it but she is such a great actress that she made me feel like she loved every second.

He’s just a terrible actor and needed to be humbled after Barbie.

When a movie doing nearly 30M in business post pandemic is a "bad" box office performance it seems like the height of insanity.

[quote] Emily Blunt

Let me tell you about Emily Blunt....

Meg Ryan Gosling.

Emily Blunt Force Trauma.

?? "French Kiss" was a hit.

Does anyone know the difference between “French Kiss” and “I.Q.?”

I think they’re the same movie.

People just don't like Ryan Gosling.

She married some one dimensional fuggo from The Office and now they think they’re Lunt and Fontaine.

Emily Blunt isn’t fit to wipe their asses

The I Hate Emily Blunt Troll at R62 has been on an unhinged bender all weekend.

I fear for the Krasinskis.

This is what happens you make movies in quotation marks.

Also, they didn’t need to marry this to old, existing IP. Calling it The Fall Guy made it seem very dated - were they hoping to attract 70 year-olds?

Also, you could tell by the way they were overhyping Gosling it was bound to fail. He was promoting himself the whole time, making the film seem very secondary. People pay to see films. If you just liked Gosling - even though he is strangely unsexual, non-existent below the waist, never more so since playing Ken) - you could watch his many overwrought talk show appearances. He’s doing too much, over-extending the joke.

Also, stunts still need good movies. Nobody wants to watch a stunt reel.

In its promotion, this film reminded me of Hal Needham’s Hooper starring Burt Reynolds, a late ‘70s homage to stung men that failed to do Smokey & The Bandit business.

*stunt men

Like Mission impossible and Fast and Furious were anything else

R64 This film has great reviews. Dumbasses like you who haven’t even seen the film are the scourge of humanity. Eat. Shit.

Disney stock down almost 10% ($11.44 ) a share so far this morning

Must be because The Fall Guy is so good.
